In this weekly show, we will share stories about our travels. We will also share tips and advice about our work from anywhere lifestyle. It’s our hope that you’ll get some cool ideas and be inspired. We’d love to hear from you. Feel free to send us questions to podcast@beentheredoingthat.com.
We go by the name “Been There DOING That” because we are a long way from being done! Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy the show.
We had a full and busy work week, pretty much strapped to our computers. It was time to break away and do a little trail driving. A few weeks ago, Robert had explored Glade Top Trail while I was in Mississippi. Since that area is one of the most remote areas in Missouri, we knew …
This week’s podcast is about our little adventure as we traveled north from our home base. Here’s a breakdown. Warrensburg, MO Robert had been looking forward to heading up to Warrensburg to attend the annual WAARCI Hamfest. We’ve attended the last couple of years and it’s a good time to see people who Robert chats with over …
We went our separate ways, but it was only for five days. I went to Gulf Port, MS with my cousin to visit her son and brand new grandbaby. Robert stayed around home to take care of the dogs. Besides he had a gig or two scheduled when I was gone. The trip to Gulf …
We had a day off and we planned to tackle some rewiring on the Jeep that couldn’t be delayed any longer. It was driving us nuts that the headlights would go out when we switched from low beams to high beams. We wanted to be able to use high beams again, so we decided …
Robert was anxious to get out of the house. It was about noon and he just wanted to GO! He didn’t tell me his plan. I don’t think he had a plan really, just to go south. We headed south on Hwy 160 out of Springfield, MO. We went through little towns we haven’t …
We had a lovely time recently at Hulston Mill Civil War Days located between Greenfield and Everton, MO off of Hwy 160. It was our first time to attend and we were impressed. The grounds where the old 1840’s grist mill, as well as other historic log cabins, sits is absolutely beautiful. With all the reenactors dressed …
Our trip to Overland Expo West this year was especially welcomed as we were looking forward to getting away and enjoying the event. We appreciate being selected as volunteers and we loved our assignments. On Thursday, we worked in the HQ tent checking people in. On Friday and Sunday, we were stationed at the Concierge …
We had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing Chris Shontz with Venture 4WD (pronounced venture forward) at Overland Expo West 2018. About a year and a half ago, Chris left his job as a programmer to explore and seek adventure traveling and living in his Jeep Wrangler full time. We have followed Chris for months …
This year’s trip out west shifted to become more about the destination than the journey as we traveled to Overland Expo West 2018. We normally like to take our time and experience sites we’ve not seen yet when we travel. It took us a speedy two days to travel from our home in Missouri …
April was not at all as we had planned. It had to be the most difficult month we’ve ever experienced. It was trying on our emotions and we were so drained that we couldn’t agree on how many days were even in April. The long and difficult month had made it even difficult for me to talk …
