These are our RV Living Pits and Peaks. We’ve been on the road for nearly a year! My how time flies. From downsizing to mechanical failures and sock cats, it’s all in here. We were on the ground at Lake Tawakoni Thousand Trails, in Point, Texas. The spot was fantastic, and about 40 feet from […]
Day trip to Disney Springs with Epic Mini Life
Today we venture to Disney Springs for lunch, cupcakes, and of course for Minnie’s Rock the Dots celebration. She’s getting her own star on the Hollywood walk of fame! We’ve been in the Orlando area for about a month, and have been at three different RV parks. We leave here (Sherwood Forest RV Resort) on […]
Free Range Tatanka – Epic Mini Life S1E5
In this video we document a trip to Tallgrass Prairie Preserve in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. The audio was terrible for the most part, and we’ve included subtitles for the important parts. The rest is music! If you like it, don’t forget to give it a thumbs up! We’ve been on the road now for a few […]
Control and stuff, or experiences?
Any sense of control you have in your lives is simply an illusion that you’ve allowed to persist. Your life could end in the next few minutes, or you could live to 120 with modern medicine. You can take actions to minimize exposure, but ultimately you’re here for a limited time. Worrying about “stuff” and […]
Live Your Dreams – Epic Mini Life S1E4
Well, this probably isn’t the video you’re looking for, but it’s a fun one! 🙂 We visit Marceline, MO, home of the Walt Disney Hometown Museum and his childhood home. We visit both, and share it with you! We’ve been on the road now for a few months, and we’ve learned a LOT! A LOT. […]
Tiny/Small living and reaching a larger audience
A friend of mine (from Boulder) offered this reply to one of our Facebook posts. I started to write a simple reply, but it turned into enough to warrant its own blog post. Strap in. 🙂 You know… the public aversion to tiny homes is partially due to the projected hubris around “how small I […]
Launch day is upon us, securing Leeloo, and the first leg!
We’ve been planning, discussing, learning, and otherwise practically obsessed with this new chapter in the journey of life. The reality is starting to sink in, and it’s not all rainbows and unicorns. The truth of the matter is that as the time nears, the more we realize how much more there is left to do, […]
How many horses does it take to pull your life?
I stumbled upon this post declaring the “covered wagon” as the first tiny home. This totally makes sense. In fact, I was thinking this morning about how a pickup pulling a 5th wheel is the logical evolution of the horse and covered wagon. Everything we need will be packed nicely inside of Leeloo (our name […]
Best Laid Plans – Epic Mini Life S1E2
As it turns out, letting go of the stuff wasn’t the hard part. Well, for the most part. Physically getting rid of it is proving to be far more difficult. UPDATE: We’re changing the plans a bit after realizing that we are in total control of our calendar and location. That sort of autonomy is […]
Five must have apps for nomadic cross-country living
One thing you can count on in an Epic Mini Life is learning how to navigate the best tools for the task. Today we’ll focus on getting from your current place to the next. Traditional travel is simple. You’re leaving the home airport, going to the destination (potentially with a layover), renting a car, and […]
