It’s all about the people.

NuRVersWhen you live somewhere long enough you develop a circle of friends and a sense of community.

The same can be said for fulltime RVing, at least among the cool online RVers.

Recently we’ve hooked up with various road trip bloggers who we’ve grown to know via the internet.

After getting to know these folks through their travel blogs, twitter tweets, and forums, it’s been great to put some faces to the names.

Eva Darling Vantasy Girl with Vanta-CIt started with the rowdy bunch in Denver. At the first unofficial NuRVers Rendevous we not only met the Vantasy girl, but Kevin and Angie themselves.

It was there at Cherry Creek State Park where we also hooked up again with the Live Lightly tour.

And at the Portland Market our paths finally crossed close enough to Traveling 12 Feet that we got to meet Mr. Rikki in person. Or should we say Rique?

Finally at the Oregon Hatchery Research Center we just got together with the Cramers, who originally turned us on to the whole workamping thing when we met them way back at Seedhouse.

I am sure looking forward to catching up with old friends when we visit our old hometown of Eureka, and to making many more in our travels to come.
