We've spent quite a bit of time in southwest Missouri for the past eight months. During that time, we needed a go-to place—someplace we could count on to spend a few hours when it was too hot or cold or rainy to explore outdoors—and we chose th

We love high ropes courses, and it has been way too long since we went ziplining. On a recent trip to Branson, we discovered a place called Fritz's Adventure...which is a giant, 80,000 square foot indoor adventure playground. It features 19 act
We've never recorded an episode like this before!In today's episode of the Exploreblognet Podcast, we take a look first in Susan's everyday carry bag (her purse) and then in Brad's everyday carry bag (yes, Brad carries a little bag that looks l
When we departed Colorado for this new way of living—traveling the country in a trailer while making periodic longer stops to earn money—our now-adult children had just left our house. We were new empty nesters. One of our priorities was figuri
We've been taking weekly road trips while stationed in Ash Grove, Missouri for a while. Ash grove is a little more than an hour away from Branson, so we've made a great many of those road trips to Branson—a place we've visited many times in the
We've been taking weekly road trips while stationed in Ash Grove, Missouri for a while. Last week, we visited Bentonville, Arkansas. It's been on our to-do list since we arrived in Southwest Missouri.Listen in to hear about everything we did in
We’ve talked before about how we make money while living this lifestyle and how we try to keep to a strict budget while working on producing more income flows. For the past six months, Susan has been serving a congregation as an interim ministe
You've heard me—Brad—mention before that I have a chronic illness. And, of course, you know we live in a tiny trailer.Today, we'll go into depth about how these two things fit together.I'll start by explaining a bit about my chronic illness—ulc
We live a nomadic lifestyle; yet, for the past almost six months we've been based in one location. (That will change very soon, as we will once again begin traveling.) It might sound a bit strange, but for us, it's not. From time to time, nomad
One of the big reasons we chose this tiny trailer lifestyle was to see family more frequently. Our kids have moved out of the house, our parents and extended family members are getting older, and we've had enough of getting at most a few weeks
It's no secret that inflation has been creeping up for a while now. We started noticing it as soon as we left our brick and mortar house a little over a year ago. We struggled to keep the budget we had made several months prior and wondered why
Years ago, when we started planning to leave our brick and mortar home and travel the USA while living in a trailer, we had a very important decision to make that would impact all the others: should we keep our 2013 Subaru Outback 2.5i as our t
We've experienced a great many amazing stories while living in a tiny trailer and traveling the USA for the past year! And we've already shared many of them with you...on a variety of topics. In today's episode, we share some of our favorite st
When we started living in a tiny trailer and criss-crossing the USA a little over a year ago, we had little idea what we were in for. We had rarely camped; we had never owned a trailer before. For the previous almost twenty years, we had lived
