Three Years On The Road

Three Years On The Road and embracing a fourth without reservation. Hear the story in Three-Years-On-The-Road-Bob Davis Podcast 1119.

First of all I started nomad life out with a podcast the very first night I was on the road.

Halloween Podcast

So every year my Halloween is a podcast day.

Fourth Year Of Nomad Travel Coming Up

Second of all I am fully embracing a fourth year on the road starting in November 2023.

Full Commitment

That is to say I have made a full commitment to so called nomad life.

Life On The Road

Altogether these commemorative podcasts provide a record of observations and stories about my life on the road.

Many Thanks

And many people to thank as always.

Certainly I will not have a full list of those to thank.

But the names that come up here I will assume fit this particular podcast.

Crazy

Above all many people ask me about all the ‘crazy’ people and situations I must encounter.

However sometimes the almost mundane nature of our lives as nomads might surprise those back in the world.

Change

In fact the change we encounter is more significant personally than anything else about this life.

Pace

The pace of travel and my life have changed in these three years without a doubt.

Positive

Surprisingly positive change.

Depth

One point often overlooked is the depth and quality of the relationships we form out here.

Face Value

Even more the fact that people accept you at face value.

Same Plane

That is to say we meet and begin our friendships on the same plane.

In The Moment

Regardless of who we thought we were or what we may have done what’s important is who we are in the moment while out here.

Vistas

Furthermore I wouldn’t trade the vistas I have seen through the windshield for anything.

Of course I have missed a lot of TV Shows in the last three years.

Timeless

Nevertheless I have gained timeless friendships and life experiences.

Like A Dream

Accordingly it has been more like a dream than anything else.

Of course I’d point out the details are in Three-Years-On-The-Road-Bob Davis Podcast 1119.

Not Always Easy

All in all I wouldn’t say it was easy.

But it was easier than staying back in the world.

Don’t Wait For Paradise

All things considered if you have something you want to do…

Don’t wait for paradise.

In summary whatever it is…reach out and grab it.

MtWashington-Forgotten-Radio-History-Bob Davis Podcast 1112

MtWashington-Forgotten-Radio-History-Bob Davis Podcast 1112

MtWashington Forgotten Radio History

Firstly New Hampshire’s Mount Washington is incredible. But the significant role it played in the history of radio has been forgotten. Details in MtWashington-Forgotten-Radio-History-Bob Davis Podcast 1112.

Mount Washington A Must See

Altogether a visit to Mount Washington is well worth the effort.

Highest Peak In The East

Significantly the highest peak in the North Eastern US is said to have the worst weather in the world.

From The Early 1800’s

For one thing I’m amazed tourists have been toiling up over six thousand feet to the peak since the early 1800’s.

Even more hotels dotted the peak in the 1850’s.

And even a daily newspaper was published on the mountain for many years.

To The Dawn Of FM Radio

Nevertheless the mountain also has a significant radio history.

Armstrong’s Invention

In fact almost a century ago Edwin Howard Armstrong invented FM radio.

Additionally Armstrong built the first tower for FM broadcasting on the mountain.

The tower is still there.

The Yankee Network

At the same time he established the Yankee Network.

The first FM Radio Network and hence the first wireless radio network.

Industrial History

Certainly the whole complex at the top of Mount Washington is a tribute to industrial development.

Engineering

As well as the triumph of engineering.

Cog Railway and Weather Station

From the cog railway to the weather station.

In MtWashington-Forgotten-Radio-History-Bob Davis Podcast 1112 I’ll take a trip up the railway to the summit with a good friend.

To explain we both spent many years as broadcasters.

Shock

All in all it’s a shock there is almost no trace of Armstrong’s efforts on the Mountain.

Moreover that’s not New Hampshire’s fault.

In  fact many thanks to the New Hampshire State Parks for giving us a great teaching tour.

Radio’s Failure

On the contrary I wonder why broadcast companies can’t seem to underwrite a permanent tribute to one of it’s greatest pioneers.

Finally maybe the industry is dying because of it’s lack of respect for its history.

Love The Peak

In the meantime I can see why Armstrong loved this peak despite it being a for real arctic zone.

To sum up it’s a must see.

Nomadlife-Or-Corporatelife-False-Choice-Bob Davis Podcast 1087

Nomadlife-Or-Corporatelife-False-Choice-Bob Davis Podcast 1087

Nomad Life Or Corporate Life False Choice

Firstly Nomadlife Or Corporatelife is a false choice. Period. Full stop. Details in Nomadlife-Or-Corporatelife-False-Choice-Bob Davis Podcast 1087.

Quit Your Job

Secondly certain people are saying people in the corporate world back home should quit their jobs and join the nomad ‘movement’.

Really?

Therefore suddenly being a nomad is now an ‘ism’ or a ‘movement’. Really?

Too Big For Your Britches

And some of us think certain prognosticators are getting too big for their britches.

Social Media

In addition social media ‘stars’ don’t speak for the whole.

Certainly that is the whole point of the nomad experience isn’t it?

Being A Nomad Is Not A Statement

Above all I don’t like the idea that being a nomad is some kind of anti capitalist statement.

Or any kind of statement at all.

Natural?

For example telling people the nomad experience is ‘noble’ or ‘ordained’ or ‘natural’ is inaccurate.

Even more maybe out and out wrong.

A Choice

Most importantly this nomad life is a choice.

And so is the corporate world.

You Do You

Further neither choice is right or wrong.

Thank You

Finally a big thank you to those back in the world for all you do.

Respecting Nature

Certainly your contribution makes it possible for us to enjoy and respect this wilderness.

Not Fair Or Factual

But saying the world back home is unnatural isn’t fair or factual.

Life Choices

To sum up we all make choices at different times in our lives for different reasons.

It’s A Lifestyle Not A Judgement

Moreover as a nomad I did not do this in judgement of people back home or their choices.

I’ll tell you more in Nomadlife-Or-Corporatelife-False-Choice-Bob Davis Podcast 1087.

False Intellectualism

In conclusion the assertion humans are pack animals and therefore nomads…

And because of this ‘reality’ you people back home should stop being ‘exploited’ and join us out here…

Is just plain nonsense.

Isn’t The Whole Point Freedom?

To sum up humans who are free can create many things.

Embrace Liberty

Maybe nomads who have appointed themselves chiefs of the tribe ought to embrace liberty and leave people back home alone.
