Plan for the Future?
Some of us are good at choosing our careers and creating a financial strategy – a solid plan for the future self. I am not one of those people.
Recently, I was asked why we made the decision to sell our home rather then rent it out while we spend a year on the road in a travel trailer. It’s a very good question. We could certainly rent out our house for more Read More →
2020 Vision
We are soon to be entering the year 2020. I have always fancied that 2020 would be a time for big change – in THE world and in OUR world. You know that space we create for ourselves with each choice we make, day in and day out. Where we try to find balance and resolutions in the things that are but also managing all the incoming lobs thrown at us from the outside – the stuff we never asked for Read More →
Veterans Day in Boise!
We were so honored to participate in this year’s Boise Veterans Day Parade!
This years theme was “Letters from Home”. Ken’s grandfather, Nelson G. Douglass, Jr, served in WW1 in the 91st Infantry Division “aka Wild West Division”. He wrote nearly every day to his family and tried to paint as rosy a picture as he could so as not to worry his mother.

A few of these letters were chosen by the Boise Veterans Committee and were read by actors to an attentive crowd of Idahoans. Read More →
Question
One of my favorite creative pastimes is sitting down with a pile of word magnets. I sort them into categories – nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc. Once everything is categorized and organized I choose a word that speaks to me, in this case “question”, and the sentences start taking shape. Surprisingly, they always seem to form an inspirational message. Perhaps it is my subconscious having found a way to communicate above the noise of the world? Read More →
BanjoCat Song
BanjoCat Creative isn’t just about websites!
We love to write. Whether it’s in song or story form we are always busy stringing words together to form a new “something” that didn’t exist before.
Writing this song was a great exercise in helping us to nail down just what we are about in as little words as possible. Read More →
Travel Trailer Choices
This is not a simple process – trying to find just the right travel trailer to fit our needs and trust that the workmanship is of excellent quality, which in the RV world, is hard to find.
After researching the various travel trailer brands and going to a RV show we have come to one unfortunate conclusion – most travel trailers are pretty much crap. Read More →
One Year on the Road
One year on the road. That is the current plan. Letting go of convention and convenience for a life on the road in a small travel trailer. It’s difficult to stay grounded and not over romanticize this pending life change. We’ve been restless for so long and the idea of it resonates strongly within our true selves. What was the tipping point? Read More →
