Most important thing about the RV Entrepreneur Summit for 2021 is community. Learn more in RV-Entrepeneur-Summit-2021-Bob Davis Podcast 1016.

Re Examining The Suburban Life

Above all it seems to me people are re examining the standard suburban life story more and more these days.

Everyone Wants A Way Out

Firstly as housing becomes more expensive and jobs just don’t seem to be what they used to be everyone is looking for a way out.

Choosing A Digital Nomad Lifestyle

Secondly many have chosen a remote work, digital nomad lifestyle.

Going Mobile

Consequently that means going mobile in some kind of RV. Trailer. A big Class A. Or a smaller Class C. Still an even more manageable Class B or Sprinter Van of some kind.

Even more hitting the road in some kind of hybrid vehicle. Some are new. Others are not so new.

Not New

Certainly this is not a new trend.

Banking On Growth

However some are banking on the idea that this lifestyle is growing by leaps and bounds.

Campsites

For example finding campsites especially for the big fifth wheel trailers this summer has been very difficult at times.

Podcasts and Summits

Meanwhile Heath and Alyssa Padgett have been doing the RE Entrepreneur Podcast and Summit for a few years now. Click here to find information on both.

New Venture In Colorado

These days they’re getting off the road for awhile to work on a new venture and a new idea in RV Campgrounds. I’ll tell you more in RV-Entrepeneur-Summit-2021-Bob Davis Podcast 1016.

Don’t Do This Alone

More importantly one of the sayings of digital nomads is ‘Don’t Do This Alone’.

Three Couples

Therefore I decided to interview three couples here at the summit in Colorado, about their experiences and dreams. Of course Heath and Alyssa join us at the end of the podcast.

We Need Everything

In addition this burgeoning class of mobile workers and entrepreneurs need everything.

Especially Campsites

We need campgrounds, Internet Access, help with vehicles. Certainly community and other nomads to collaborate with.

And especially these days, camp sites.

All Kinds Of People

And you meet all kinds of people doing many different things at this kind of summit.

What’s The Takeaway

The big takeaway?

Even in a world that doesn’t make sense anymore…

Dreams do come true.

Mount-Rainier-Sioux-Falls-4Days-Bob Davis Podcast 1002

Mount Rainier to Sioux Falls in 4 Days

Firstly I don’t like to travel this fast but I just rolled from Mount Rainier to Sioux Falls in 4days. Learn more in Mount-Rainier-Sioux-Falls-4Days-Bob Davis Podcast 1002.

Amazing

Secondly it was an amazing trip.

Game Changer In Sioux Falls

Most importantly I had a game changing business meeting in South Dakota that solved my connectivity problems in one fell swoop. In addition I’ll be telling you more about this fix in future podcasts.

Oregon Coast To Washington State

But it was a great trip up the Oregon Coast, to Washington’s Mount Rainier then across the Yakima Valley.

Idaho to Montana

Even more Idaho and Montana take the cake.

Grasslands

And the grasslands of North Dakota!

South Dakota In 100 Degree Heat

Finally the trip across South Dakota in one hundred degree heat was one for the books.

One Day to Minnesota and Wisconsin

Further still a quick one day trip across Minnesota to Wisconsin for Father’s Day 2021.

Fading Restrictions and Burgeoning Optimism Across America

Above all a trip across the northern tier of the United States at a time when Covid restrictions are beginning to face for the time being, and people seem more optimistic.

Record Visitors At The Parks

Certainly the national parks have record visitors and are packed while the National Forests and Bureau of Land Management campgrounds are deserted.

Lassen Mount Shasta and More

Moreover I was able to enjoy Lassen National Park and Mount Shasta before quite an adventure in the Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest in Oregon.

Logging roads, coast line, rain forests, arid valleys and more.

Back Roads Forever

To clarify I am struck by how much running across the country this way on back roads is similar to binge watching a series on HBO or Netflix at the height of the pandemic last year.

Travel Velocity

Certainly I wonder if I am one of the few nomads moving across the country at various levels of travel velocity, covering so much ground all on the back roads.

How Far and How Fast

To sum up I wonder how the rest of the my nomad friends listening and reading this blog travel. How far and how fast.

Running Fast Can Be Fun

In short I’ll say it again. I don’t like to travel this fast. It’s exhausting. But it can be fun as well.

In the same vein I hope listeners and subscribers enjoy some of the stories and experiences from this mega trip.

Plans Change

In addition I’ve changed my plans a bit, I think, for the rest of the summer.

Rural-America-Urban-Covid-Refugees-Bob Davis Podcast 934

Covid Refugees Head Up North

For people in the upper Midwest summer means ‘Up North’. Especially relevant to Rural-America-Urban-Covid-Refugees-Bob Davis Podcast 934 even city people might find Up North a little crowded these days.

Not Just An Old Cabin In The Woods Anymore

Even more cabins in the woods these days are becoming sophisticated enough to qualify as second or even first homes.

Designated Meet Up When It All Goes Down

Firstly for most extended families ‘The Cabin’ or ‘Up North’ is the designated meet up if things go south.

Relatives Who Bugged Out

Therefore Father’s Day weekend seemed like a perfect time to get together with my son who bugged out from New York City.

Pandemic Panic Brought Them From Big Urban Centers

Secondly since then other family members from New York, Chicago and Los Angeles have jumped on the refugee bandwagon.

We’ve Been Here For Generations

On the other hand we have a lot of relatives who’ve lived ‘Up North’ for generations.

How Are The Rural People Getting Along With The Urban Denizens

Consequently I wondered how everyone is getting along.

Chicken, Steak and Conversation

Time to grill out and have some conversation.

Getting Along

You might think fur would fly between the locals and the refugees but it turned out great.

Millennial Approach To Collaboration

Moreover one of the things I was impressed with is how the millennial generation handles working together across cultural lines. We’ll talk about it as we get the ‘Up North Experience’ in Rural-America-Urban-Covid-Refugees-Bob Davis Podcast 934. This a standard topic on the podcasts these days.

Plenty Of Room For Everyone

Certainly there are funny stories and things to talk about. However as my nephew put it, there’s plenty of room here for everyone.

Not Done With ‘The Covid’, Though

Finally I think it’s fair to say we’re not done with Covid.

Second Wave?

For example spikes are reported already in areas that have opened up. Of course there’s also the official ‘second wave‘ predictions to think about. Not to mention unrest in the cities.

No Urban Or Rural Emphasis

In conclusion I am impressed with our ability to pivot to working from home and anywhere, and doing it successfully or even better. Maybe the future doesn’t have an urban or rural emphasis.
