What is Modern Pioneerism?
What is Modern Pioneerism? It’s dealing with what the land brings you or sometimes takes away. Whether it brings storms, bugs, snakes, wild animals or human influence such as trash abandoned by others or even possible vandals. No matter what, all these aspects to learn, better yourself and survive within this environment.
Travels
In few days we will be heading out to a couple festivals. Where we’ve been invited to host some workshops on Modern Pioneerism. Travel is slow for us especially with a 40 foot rv, we try to limit our mileage to around 200 miles. We may drive this and call it a day or take a couple hour or so break before heading out for the next destination.
Our trip is going to consist of some wonderful stops. We very rarely stay at RV resorts, campgrounds. We do have 3 campgrounds, few winery’s, skydiving school, wall climbing Cafe, space & science museum, missile silo among others booked to spend at least one night. Stay tuned for pictures and YouTube videos of our adventures!
Dog life it’s Ruff
Dog life it’s ruff- Dreugan is growing up fast he is 22 weeks old 48 lbs. The last couple days his one ear decide to be floppy. So will they both become floppy or just the one? Maybe one side is the Rottweiler and other the husky? Let us know your thoughts?
Stop smell the ros.. cactus🌵
As we get closer to travel days, we tend to get busy packing, securing everything and making sure the RV, & car are ready for a trip. Even with all this going on we take time to smell (if want a needle in your nose) the cactus. No roses here so it’s all about the cactus.
Echo-Worthy Solar
This is what happens when a controller on your solar setup fails and over charges the batteries.. This setup us less than a year old. Still under manufacture warranty.. We have another 3 yr extended warranty in top of that.
Yet the company #echoworthy ignores all attempts We’ve made to contact them. They keep telling us tech support will call or ema us back.. that they’ll mark it urgent.. 3 weeks still nothing, we have filed a complaint with BBB but idk if that’ll help as there’s already many complaints filed.
Road Adventure Heading Home
Art of Tiny Living: Road Adventure part 5, Heading Home

Upcoming Travels
Getting things ready for an upcoming trip. In June we’ll be heading out to present our “Modern Pioneerism” at a couple festivals throughout the Midwest. We are hoping to share our experiences to help others achieve their own Modern Pioneerism without as much learning curve as we’ve had!
Our workshops we’ll be offering..
Setting the vision.
We found ourselves in late 2019 looking to discover a place in the world that was ours. We felt that the fates had led us (intentional or not) onto a path of discovery for ourselves. There was a way of living that was difficult to define to others, much less clearly understood by us. We knew just a taste of what was possible within what we were already doing in a tiny environment. The leap was certainly an opportunity to see something for all of us and answer the question, did we hold within the spirit of those ancestral footsteps, to break the ground where few feet have tread?
**Back ground…….
**the sizing down….
**Why the Hell New Mexico?
**What would the elders have said?
**Oh Shit!!!! It’s Covid!
Plateau Hame de Colquhoun.
What is it that drew us here? These harsh wastelands of the Mesa, the desert, the badlands of the American SW. There is this sense of being “out there” that is easily envisioned and yet meant to be only experienced. Surrounded by vast lands and hugged by the mountains, it does leave one with a feeling of abandon and isolation, and yet comfort. What a better place to find yourself and learn of your merits and your might. Like those of a different age, we have to discover what works for all of us, and what is the most sustainable method of our existence within a small footprint, in a place that only allows for shallow roots.
**Getting there is the easy part?
**The learning curve
**Living in the Wild, Wild West ( this isn’t the 1880’s)
**What’s to make of Necessity? ( where want and Need collide)
**Footprints in the sand
Where do we go from here?
When we think about the possibilities, we make choices. What fits the now vs. what can wait..and what is most important to us. We have a desire to be nomadic. We have a want to expand out into places of meaning and yet develop and grow with what we have at home. The conundrum of the contradiction? Maybe?
**There is always an option
** Living Tiny in a Great Big World
**The Spoke and the Hub
**Oh Gimme a Home
