Water Pressure Tank and a Hide Away Table
I’ve been showering in the Squatch lately, and I have to say: I love it! To many people, the small motorhome bathroom is too cramped and claustrophobic, but I think it’s cozy and efficient. Everything is within arm’s reach and…

Dreams With Wheels
I’ve been busy. Busy planning, purging, selling, donating, packing, and choosing an RV. It feels good to be busy again; to have direction, a plan. And, there is some sort of plan: a big change. We’re moving into a motorhome,…

The Prodigious Purge
I’m loving the purge! It feels so good to rid myself of unused items, unappreciated furniture, and redundant clothing. The books are a hard one. Some, I’ve read and won’t pick up again so, donating them to the library is…

Minimalism By Distillation
I’m going small and it feels good. We’re in the process of finding a suitable motorhome to live in. A beautiful Class C to modify for our purposes. A remodeled rear bedroom for storage, a composting toilet in the lavatory,…

Mobile Minimalism
I’m no minimalist. I don’t really know what that would look like. No such person, I suppose, but I like the ideology of minimalism. I tend to be an excessivist. Hmmm. Red Underline. My word? Anyway, I do things excessively.…
