Vegas, Baby!

In a fabulous twist of fate, Hubby has a work conference at the Four Seasons in Vegas this week. So, this RV Mama farmed the kids out to my desert dwelling mama and flew off to Vegas for a few days. I was unprepared for the culture shock going from living on the beach to [...]

Would you like a virtual tour of the RV?

My blog has become completely schizophrenic…living with a delayed internet or access to link to my flickr account or youtube account makes for an interesting time warp between what is happening as I blog it, and what has happened that I filmed or captured with my canon and then finally blog about a week later. [...]

The Legend of the Golden Shell.

Almost every morning, Sassy and I go out for a walk along the beach. Turns out, that is an excellent way to start a day! We come across a handful of people out with their metal detectors, looking for lost treasure. Sassy was really envious of the people with them. Especially when she saw them [...]

I found something i covet more than chocolate.

You’ll never guess what it is. I’ll even give you three hints, and you still won’t figure it out: it’s something you use every day, there are lots of them around you, you’ve used them for your whole life. Answer: drawers! Drawers drawers drawers. Drawer space is limited in this RV. Not that I’m complaining [...]

Live from LA

This post brought to you by the Lakers, the Staples Center, and Los Angeles! We spent the day at an unschooling park day in Long Beach…I’ll write more about that when I have proper Internet and can link stuff up. I’ve never met in a group with other unschoolers, so it was quite a huge [...]

Party in the RV!

No blog tonight, we’re having a disco party in the 25 feet of living space we’ve got here. If you want to join in, go to the smallest room you have (like, a closet…), cram everyone in, give each person a flashlight, turn on the iTunes (we don’t have disco, actually, so daft punk is [...]

Happy Presidents Day!

I could gush over how fantastic today was in Huntington Beach, but Hubby still had to work today and left here at 5:30 am and is just leaving work at almost 10 pm. I don’t want him to think he missed out on anything great or anything. So, you know, it was OK. …. …. [...]

What Prague Taught Me.

In 2000, Hubby was finishing up his graduate program from UCI, and we decided to do a semester abroad through the school. Naturalist was 4, and Golfer was 1. The only place we could afford to live was Budapest, Hungary…even though I had my heart set on France or Belgium or Italy or anywhere other [...]

Listening in the quiet moments.

The fog is rolling in here at Huntington Beach. I can’t see the ocean in the moonglow, I can only hear it wash in and out over and over. I love the sound of the waves crashing-I used to have a white noise machine with other settings on it, I’d always use either the ocean [...]

Friday nights are jumpin’ at the RV park!

This will be short and sweet…I’ve got a hot date tonight here at the rv park! My dad is watching the kids, I took a nice long shower at his place, and there’s a full on party over here with every space now full of rv’s and their owners. Apparently, this place in Huntington Beach [...]
