EDIT (08/29/21): I published this a few days ago but I am going to update it due to a comment I got from Rebecca (see below.) I think not calling it the BIG C and referring to it as the little c would be much more appropriate. I can’t change the title because it would mess up the original URL of the post, but I am going to change it in the body of the text. Thanks Rebecca! I’ve written…
It’s been almost a year since we were in Colorado, so I figured it might be time I posted a video about it. Colorado is just simply beautiful! We only got to explore a small portion of it for reasons you’ll see, but I can only imagine the rest of the state is amazing as well. It’s definitely on our list of places to return to. We did a lot of stuff while we were there. Some intentional, some not….
Finn and I did an overnight hike on the Appalachian Trail in North Carolina. If you are interested in such things, check out the video. If not, tell me what kind of post you’d like to see next.
Amazon just started a new service called Kindle Vella, you know, like Novella? It’s a platform where authors can release serialized stories one episode at a time anywhere from 500 – 15,000 words long. Right now I am working on three books at one time. Am I crazy? Pretty much. Doing one book at a time was hard enough, but I just got three ideas at once and had to go with it. One of the books is a follow…
It’s been a hot minute since I put on an RVidiots video. I couldn’t let the one year anniversary of our departure from the stick and bricks to the full-time RV life go by without putting out something. So here it is, for your viewing pleasure…
Yes, this is a hiking story. Yes, River, it’s a long one. Much like my sex life, I store it up for a long time and then release it in one big bang! Unlike my sex life, this will last longer. You’ll notice I didn’t file this one under the Epic Trail Fails category. That’s because, other than a couple of falls and a much too close encounter with lightning, there was no fail. The Virginia Triple Crown of hiking…
If you spend time in the outdoors, eventually something will go wrong. It’s a law of nature. But if you survive, those epic failures become the best stories! We’ve all read about amazing accomplishments in the wild, but now it’s time to tell us about the not-so-great times and what you learned from them. Share your best #EpicTrailFail stories on your own page, include this paragraph as a header, and then provide a link in the comments [here] or [here]….
Well, I’ve published another book. This one is a memoir about a specific time in my life. If you’ve read this blog for any amount of time you’ll know that I have a bit of social anxiety. Back during the time that this memoir covers it really wasn’t called social anxiety. It was called “That’s a weird dude” or “He must think his shit don’t stick because he never talks.” Nope, I was just, and still am, shy in the…
I met Isaiah last weekend when my dog Finn and I spent three days and two nights on the Appalachian Trail. Isaiah is an interesting chap. Definitely not the kind of person I would usually hang around with. The introvert voice in me told me to get away from this guy as quick as possible. For once, I didn’t listen to that voice and I’m glad I didn’t. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have got to have an experience that took me…
What bugger am I talk about? You might have heard a few things about it. Here’s a picture of it. Seen something like that before? Yeah, you have. It’s that damn COVID-19 bug! Mother fucker got me bad! Wait, you say? You said you think it got you. You don’t know? It’s not confirmed, but I am 99.9% sure it was COVID. I’ll tell you why I think so and why I didn’t get it confirmed. First of all I…
