What is "Government Cheese"? Looking back to the early '90s, Chris Farley starred in a Saturday Night Live (SNL) skit as a motivational speaker. The famous tagline from the skit was, "you're going to end up eating a steady diet of government cheese, livin' in a van down by the river!"
Well, here I am, after almost 10 years in the professional world, now seeking a graduate degree in two disciplines... Living in a van... down by the river.
This blog is about my little experiment, not only graduate school, but the life and decision to live in a motor home (aka. "the van") year around (aka. "down by the river"). I'm sure it will include all kinds of ramblings, from the difficulties of school, to my little inventions to make year-around RV'ing possible and comfortable. What's more, I'll be talking a lot about the economics that helped me arrive at the decisions I have and whether the decisions were the right ones.
Did I mention I'm in a location that regularly hits -20 F in the dead of Winter and is at 7,200 feet above sea level?
Gummint Cheese... yum.
