Hard to believe, but we’re only a few days out from ending this nearly one and a half year voyage. Other than the six weeks at our home in AZ last spring, we’ve lived in The Enterprise since the first week of August, 2021. And we definitely saved the best for last! Since mid September…

The Oregon Trail – More or Less
Despite my criticism of developers that extends equally to both software and hardware (ask me about our damn shampoo bottle that has obviously never been tried by the manufacturer when wet), I am thankful that the development of cell phones wasn’t trashed as a bad idea. We all know our phones are mostly just cameras…
Summer Visits and Motorhome Rants
For those of you who have been following our blog, you know that we left Arizona back in June and I haven’t written one damn work since then. I just know you’ve been waiting on pins and needles to find out what we’ve been up to, so time to fill you in! First, kudos to…
The I.T. Guy Who Wouldn’t Be Hacked
With a touch of self-deprecation and a major flip of the bird to those who caused me to tell this tale, I present a short story about the importance of using protection. (At least when it comes to your website). Warning! Reading this may cause (in order of severity): anxiety, nausea, loose bowel movements, the…
Are We Home Yet?
We’ve been ‘home’ for exactly two weeks as of writing this, and during this time as we’ve been settling in, I’ve had a near constant thought on my mind: What does Home mean for us exactly? I don’t think we’re fully ready to answer that yet, but I’m going to put down some thoughts from…
First Mission Coming to an End
Tonight we’re sitting here in The Enterprise having a Papa Murphy pepperoni pizza (my favorite), and watching NASCAR hoping the race will end well enough to gain some points in the fantasy game we’re in. And although NASCAR can be fun to watch, it’s the kind of thing where you tend to do something else…
More Texas Love Heading West
In between dodging windstorms and lots of work (not actually dodging the work), we’ve had a few more great stops in Texas. But first a bit about driving lately. Twice in the last couple weeks we’ve had to change plans due to 50+ mph winds either at our location or our destination. Luckily the parks…
A New Direction
Hey y’all … it’s been a while! We’ve been out doing stuff (eating), and work has been keeping me ‘entertained’ way more than usual. But in the midst of it all I managed to get another post ready, so here’s what’s been happening. At this point I’m happy to say, that I’m sad to say,…
Eating Our Way Across the Gulf of Mexico
First – a quick rant. To the software developers creating all the wonderful apps we use every day (including this one): your work is mediocre at best. Does anything get tested? I guess that depends on how you define testing because across the board, your software sucks. If anything actually worked as intended I’d be…
A Better Texas
Time sure gets away from us! As I sit down to start writing this post I realize it’s only been two weeks since the last one, but we’ve done so many things I can’t write about them all. I should also start with a disclaimer about the last post as it was a less than…
