The Reckless Choice

Live cheaply in an RV, work on the road, and see the world.

Visit to Nashville

Alright, this wasn’t actually an RV trip, but I figure those of you who come here for the travel stories and photos are getting glassy-eyed by now. Here I am to save the day! Last week we went to Nashville (where I grew up) for Christmas and to visit family. It was great to see… Read More Visit to Nashville

Vents and Construction

Back to our RV. We’ve been slowly working through the list of “Bad” from The Good and the Bad. First up was the leak in the front windows. The first big rain storm we had, I went inside and looked around for leaks and low and behold, all of that water damage on the front was… Read More Vents and Construction

Mobile Internet and Unicorns

We did it. We pulled it off. We have a Verizon hotspot plan with no data cap and no throttling and no sketchy third party company that goes under (thanks for nothing OmniLynx). For starters lets talk about the different ways to get internet on the road. Public WiFi Hotspots (no I will not hack Private… Read More Mobile Internet and Unicorns

RV Health Insurance

Being a responsible adult is hard work. Today, I am trying to find the best option for health insurance that will fit my needs while on the road. Requirements: (1) Must be a PPO where we can access services nationwide. (2) Must cover the medications I take for my migraines (I take six different medications,… Read More RV Health Insurance

The Southwest Companion Pass is Awesome!

I know this isn’t RV related, but it was a fairly adventurous thing we did and right now is the time to get your own pass. I’ll also admit that we’re probably not going to be flying as much once we’re in the RV so we want all of our friends and family to fly… Read More The Southwest Companion Pass is Awesome!

RV Solar – Overview

This is going to be a big project and I’m totally going to nerd out about most aspects of it so I’m going to break it up into a few parts. In this post I’m going to try really hard to keep very high level. Hopefully Allison can even read this and know what I’m talking… Read More RV Solar – Overview

Interior Decor in a Small Space

Allison here, I finally got myself a WordPress account and a bit of free time to write! We are under a blizzard warning today in Denver. It’s been pretty humdrum so far, despite the hype, but is a great example of why we are not setting out until spring time. So what are we doing… Read More Interior Decor in a Small Space

Weight Problems – Solved

And we’re back. I haven’t actually weighed the thing yet but I finally figured out the stupid owners manual and things aren’t as bad as I thought. Basically the 1989 Ford Econoline owners manual was really unclear. What do you think this page means: I’ll give you a hint, we have the 7.5L engine and… Read More Weight Problems – Solved

Weight Problems

So we hit our first semi-major snag in the plan, we want to carry more than this RV can carry. So let’s start with what the plan was. We wanted to be able to drive around more efficiently than the 10MPG that the motorhome gets and we didn’t want to need to pack up the motor… Read More Weight Problems

The Good and the Bad

I’ve spent the past two days being every preposition in relation to the RV. I think I now have a much better idea of what we got. Definitely will have a lot to learn but here is some of the good and the bad: The Good: We got a new TV. Rather serendipitously, our home… Read More The Good and the Bad
