    I’ve been spending an increasing amount of time kayaking to beat the heat lately. It’s a good way to beat the heat, and since our seasonal lot is on a lake I figure it’s a good way to get out of the house. It’s nice to go back to the camper afterward, clean up, change out of our wet clothes, then go home after a bit if we want (or stay overnight if we’re feeling up to it!)

    I’ve been coming out to the campground in the afternoons to work, ride my bike, fly kites, and play fetch with Phoebe. As you can see, Phoebe approves.

    Reminiscing back to 2020 when we were spending our first Christmas in the camper. Of all of our setup, there was something so special about the first one.

    Bridges, not Ladders

    I’ve found the biggest leaps in my career rarely come from climbing corporate ladders, but instead crossing bridges. This post is intended to be a gentle prompt for you to think about your career and consider “is it time to cross a bridge?”

    I was on ‘Within WordPress’ with Remkus. We explored my Siren Affiliates plugin, and I shared my journey through the WordPress ecosphere, emphasizing his work with Siren Affiliates and how it’s transforming affiliate marketing within WordPress.

    He’s home. That’s the last one. My stuff is no longer distributed all over the country, and I think I can finally say we’re fully transitioned out of RV life. What a crazy weekend.

    Judging by the conditions of the roads, and the various posts I’m seeing in Vermont, I think we made the right choice. The camper was a little buried this morning though 😅. We’re making good headway.

    We’ve opted to stay in the hotel for another night. The sleet is rough, and I’m really…really tired from yesterday. Slow and steady wins the race, after all.

    Well that didn’t go as planned lol. Turns out the blizzard that’s hitting Vermont this weekend decided to come a little early, so we had to scramble to get the camper packed today after making the drive from Ohio, then drive the rig to Albany through snow. We’ll finish this tomorrow, just glad to be parked away from the bulk of the snow.

    Picking up Charlie from Vermont this weekend. Reeeeeeally not looking forward to this drive. But once this is done, we’ll finally have everything consolidated.
