Like most people who find themselves caring for one or both of their elderly parents, Tim and Ramie were not experts in the field. Ramie was a high school counselor with a background in parks and recreation; Tim tabled his journalism degree to remodel homes. Later, they chose to embrace a nomadic lifestyle with Ringo, their standard poodle. In 2011, the couple began sharing photos and stories about “life on the road” on their blog www.poodleinapod.blogspot.com. Ramie started the Facebook page, “Driving Miss Norma”, in late August 2015. A few months later, it became wildly popular and now has over 500,000 followers from around the globe. Miss Norma’s story has been covered by nearly every major world news-media outlet, and the book about her year-long journey will be published in at least ten languages. Ramie’s passion for photography, her delight in reading maps, and love for her mother-in-law allowed her to act as an embedded photojournalist, counselor and logistics coordinator for the family’s motorhome adventure. Tim’s much-appreciated talents for driving safely, for being able to fix things, and for preparing great-tasting food made the whole trip just that much better. The couple still enjoys traveling, exploring the natural world, hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding, and sharing meals with friends and former strangers.
