We’ve hit a milestone! In Finding Our Dream Trailer: Cancer Update & Idaho Adventure, we share the thrill of discovering our 2014 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite 2604ws travel trailer—our ticket to full-time RV life. This episode, packed with hope and hustle, takes you from Arizona’s desert to Idaho’s promise, with a health update and a book launch on the horizon. Here’s our story.
Our Dream Trailer

After scouring RVTrader.com and dodging overpriced dealerships, we found it: a travel trailer with a private bedroom, tons of indoor storage, and a big oven for tri-tip feasts. It needs new tires and batteries, but James’ handy skills make this budget-friendly gem perfect. The dark wood interior? We’ll paint it bright! With a utility rack and solar panel, it’s ready for Idaho’s backroads. This trailer’s our new home, letting us roam free while keeping our pups comfy.
James’ Cancer Journey

James’ thyroid cancer treatment, ending June 11, 2025, is nearly done. Started after surgery in April, these final steps ensure no cancer lingers. His optimism fuels our plans: a North Rim Grand Canyon route to Idaho for our grandson’s first birthday.
Idaho Bound
We’re trading Arizona’s sunsets for Idaho’s water-rich lands, moving closer to James’ son and grandson. This trailer’s our launchpad for a U.S. loop, from Yosemite to the East Coast. The open road calls, and we’re answering with courage and dreams.
Some more Exciting Updates!
In other news, our book Together We Rise: A Wounded Healer's Guide to Collective Ascension is scheduled to be released June 24th! We will have our first book club meeting for this book on June 29th, so if you are interested in being a part of that and actually talking with the authors of the book about the book, you want to be sure to join us then!
Meantime, we are not only going to be sharing our adventures and travels and destinations and all of that excitement on our way up to Idaho but we will be interviewing some of our co-authors for the book so you guys will actually get to hear from them we are super excited to share these amazing inspiring people with you guys!
