New-Rig-Roadtrip-Ready-Bob Davis Podcast 1165

New Rig RoadTrip Ready

New Rig Roadtrip Ready. Firstly, got a new rig and a big announcement for long time listeners and subscribers to The Bob Davis Podcasts.

Difficulties

Secondly getting these two things done this summer proved to be difficult. One of the reasons there hasn’t been a new podcast in awhile.

Roadblocks

In other words sometimes it felt like there were roadblocks at every corner.

Tough Times Require Determination

When things get tough it’s important to realize it’s one step after another.

Follow Through

By all means follow through became the order of the day.

School Bus Anyone?

To begin with I wanted a School Bus.

However searching for a ‘Skoolie’ proved to be disappointing to the point of becoming depressing.

Asking For Help

At length I decided I needed help.

Enter my old friend Ed Johnson. Afterward things got easier and more fun.

In reality Ed couldn’t understand why I wanted a school bus.

Fire Rescue

In the long run I ended up with a decommissioned Fire Rescue truck.

Best Thing

All in all this turned out to be the best thing that could have happened.

Winter Is Coming

Because my deadline for leaving Wisconsin around Labor Day…

Even More Determination To Get Ready

And due to the fact we took possession of the truck on Labor Day…

Lots Of Work

In reality I had a lot of work to do in the next few weeks to get the new rig road trip ready.

CDL Required

With this in mind when we bought the new rig we didn’t realize the weight and air brakes required a CDL to drive it.

So I had to go get a CDL.

Solar, Heat and Living Space

In addition there was the issue of Solar Power, creating a living space in a different space, and getting heat in there.

Fall

As a result as fall drew its veil over the fields and lake I went to work.

Before The First Snows

At the end of the day I managed to get out of dodge just before the first snows in early November.

Manifesting

As I have noted I learned a lot about manifesting what one might want.

Better Than I Could Have Imagined

On the whole I was surprised at how what I wanted and what I ended up with turned out to be better than I could have imagined.

Thanks

Finally there’s a lot of people to thank…

New Story

All of the sudden I have a new story to tell.

In time I’ll also share how doing a bunch of stuff I didn’t think I could gave me a new confidence.

Back On The Road

In conclusion I am already back out on the road in the new Unit 11.

YouTube

Join me on the podcasts here as well as on my YouTube channel to see the new rig.

Now that all of this is out of the way I can announce the creation of a non profit.

Details in the podcast and video.

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.

Peak-Summer-Triggers-Transformation-Bob Davis Podcast 847

Peak Summer

We’re living through a pretty intense time these days. Moreover I noticed something I call ‘peak summer‘ recently. It’s a pristine moment when time seems to stop and you can’t get enough. Learn more in Peak-Summer-Triggers-Transformation-Bob Davis Podcast 847.

A Time To Transcend The BS

In addition I think summer has a transformational quality. You can transcend all the BS. Especially in that moment when evening turns to dusk, the moon rises, and night starts to come on.

Power of Sound Gets It Across

I am fascinated with the power of sound. You can’t really film peak summer. Oh sure, some movies capture it. Pictures sometimes get it. On the other hand recording peak summer bottles the experience.

Evening Becomes Night and You Are There

As a result I have been out recording blocks of sound. In Peak-Summer-Triggers-Transformation-Bob Davis Podcast 847 listen to evening become night. You’ll have to put up with my explanation of why summer is transformative and some summer memories.

Summer Memories

I first experienced peak summer when I was a kid. Seems like around twelve, thirteen or fourteen. When you hit that age there is a natural separation from the family and a yearning for freedom.

Freedom and Independence

Maybe due to age, maybe by my insistence, my parents relaxed the rules a little during those times. I got to stay out later. Spent the night on the front porch, or in my fort in the backyard.

A Night Owl Returns To His Roots

I’ve always been a night owl. Consequently I spent a lot of time on the front stoop on those summer nights, listening to the radio and dreaming the way a kid dreams about the future.

It’s most noteworthy that these days I seem to have returned to those halcyon days. The glow of the street lights. Wind in the trees. The sound of trains in the big switching yard in my home down.

Don’t Forget To Enjoy It

We’re at the moment of peak summer right now. Enjoy It.

Magic

I don’t have to tell people who live in the Upper Midwest, it’s a fleeting and magical moment. But I can share it with you…
