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.

Still-Captivated-By-Nomad-Life-Bob Davis Podcast 1130

Still Captivated By Nomad Life

Firstly Still-Captivated-By-Nomad-Life-Bob Davis Podcast 1130 includes a clip from a syndicated radio show because the hosts were talking about me! It reminded me that nomad life still captivates people.

Old Friends

Secondly a few years ago I visited my old friend Max who produces and fills in on the Bob and Sherrie show.

Here’s a link to the podcast we did together a few years ago when I first started my nomad journey.

Background

Altogether the podcast we did together gives the listener a little background on our history.

Series On The Nomad Experience

Finally I have been doing kind of a series on the current state of the nomad experience.

Quartzsite For The Winter

In fact I am camped out here in the Southwestern Arizona desert in Quartzsite for the winter.

Drawbacks

As much as I love nomad life my most recent podcast talked about some of the drawbacks I have experienced this winter.

And talks about my desire to get more out of the lifestyle.

Audio From The Show Included

So I thought it was appropriate to play the clip from the Bob and Sherrie show recently where they were talking about my experience.

No End To My Nomad Roaming Days

Because I really have no intention to end my nomad roaming days.

Technology

Even more I believe as technology continues to improve…

More Nomads

In addition it’s important to point out that there are many different tribes in this lifestyle.

That is to say there are digital nomads as well as various workers who travel.

And plenty of others who travel in a like manner.

International

Analogous to nomads in the US are other ‘tribes’ in Europe, Asia and other international locations.

Why Are People Captivated By This Lifestyle

Eventually I get to reasons people are captivated by this lifestyle.

Details

Coupled with a few more details some might not have heard about my own experience.

Better When The Wheels Are Turning

All things considered part of my frustration with Quartzsite this year stems from the fact that I do not like sitting.

As I have noted I always feel better when the wheels are turning.

More

However I still believe I want a little more out of this experience.

And I’ll be talking about that as it develops in future months.

So, check out Still-Captivated-By-Nomad-Life-Bob Davis Podcast 1130…

And thanks again to Bob and Sherrie and Max for talking about my nomad experience.
