Chronicling the adventures of an elite experiential marketing team. From the nine years on the road to new adventures in Portland, OR. We are the Roving Van Gelders and we can’t wait to see you down the road.
Just because we didn't spend St. Patrick's Day in Chicago this year doesn't mean we didn't celebrate. There are few cities that really know how to do it right! Toronto did not disappoint, thanks to some great newspaper articles we had a good idea of where to go and what to do. The "do" was... Continue Reading →
We are back from Toronto and in the office for a bit. Josh will be making some short runs to help out other drivers here and there. Later this week he is taking a truck from California to Tennessee. I might go to Chicago for the weekend.
We are in Toronto most of this week with the AWS tour for FABTECH Canada.
There are very few "first times" for us when it comes to travel anymore. We have had it all go wrong or go right. Last week was the first time we flew with Josh's guitar.

Coming this Week: Big change in plans this week, we will not be going south as previously scheduled but instead we are staying in the Chicago area. Well we are dropping the truck off in Chicago and then going to see our families.
I've been following a wonderful series of post at Taken by the Wind that highlights some ways folks carry their love of travel into all aspects of life and home. While I do love the inspired tattoos, don't think something like that is right for me. However I do wear a different kind of symbol... Continue Reading →
We have just arrived in the Twin Cities and are leaving already, too soon if you ask me. Making our way to Tomah, WI tonight and Appleton, WI later this week. It also looks like we will now be heading for Jackson,MS instead of Texas but that is completely in the air now. Post of... Continue Reading →
