Year two of this one year journey is just a few days away from completion. We’re currently parked in Lake Worth, FL, back at our very first stop on the trip way back on January 3rd, 2011. We’re spending the holidays with family, a great improvement over last year’s holidays in the hospital in San Diego. 2012 started there in San Diego with Christine recovering from her hospital stay prior to us moving on. We moved from there into the desert for 2 months spending time among the masses in Quartzsite as well as in near total solitude around Ajo and Sonoita. Then there was a cross country marathon drive of 1500+ miles from New Mexico up to Rochester, MN for a week long Mayo visit that turned into a month. Then from the top of the country to the bottom in another marathon trip down the Mississippi to New Orleans to see our friends Adam and Sarah get married. We moved from there to our first Red Bay, AL visit then to Chattanooga and Tennessee Valley Cattle Dog Rescue. We escaped the first visit but Shadow snuck into the car somehow after our second stay with Michael and the dogs.
We moved to North Carolina and stayed with my parents for a couple of months before heading north to visit New England. Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. Time in Philly as well as two weeks in D.C. before being run out by Sandy. We ended up in Asheville for almost a month, condo living and finally exploring that city for an extended period like we’ve wanted to do for years. After Thanksgiving with the Walker family we headed slowly south with an end destination of Lake Worth for a long overdue extended stay with Carolyn and Jason.
Year two down and once again another year is spread out in front of us full of unanswered questions. Where will we go, what will we see, what experiences will come along to change us? Will we find a place to settle? Will year three of this one year journey turn into year four? We don’t know but we’re happy to find out. Hope you can come along with us.
