Pause for an update in real time...
Just to be sure you all know... I am trying to catch up on my last trip but I am still a bit behind. I am working on the last few stops. I got home in time to go to synagogue for Yom Kippur and make my mom happy, which makes me happy... and I spent a month working on the house some more, visiting and catching up with family and friends, and working on really moving into the RV. I was also home for a family Bar Mitzvah... and a super shout out to Sam for doing an amazing job... to Susan for planning a beautiful perfect weekend, and to Jackson and Rebecca for putting up with Sam doing his thing and to Sean for putting up with Susan doing hers! I do so love my family! AND I loved visiting my friends. I love all the friends I make on the road, and I have made many (my daily texts are voluminous to show all the new people I am keeping in touch with), but I do miss my friends at home. It’s funny since I didn’t see everyone all the time when I am there... I guess it’s knowing that I can.
So on moving into the RV, I am pretty much there. I have moved most of what I think I will ever need in and, most importantly, I have moved much of my art collection so that it really feels like home. More to come on that as I will make a post of Art in the RV.
With the Beast loaded and the Baby Beast all hooked up... I left on October 22nd. Off to the next adventure. Goals were pretty easy... Aim for Albuquerque for Thanksgiving (all the kids are coming in, with families and significant others in tow... and mothers and mothers in laws and all of Meredith’s family as well... big gathering), and then aim for Florida at Sawmill (again) for Christmas and New Years. After that, it is just avoiding the snow and enjoying life until March or April.
You will see from my itinerary that I have already visited Richmond, Asheville, Nashville, Memphis, Little Rock. I am currently in Oklahoma City again on my way to Palo Duro, again. I move so fast that I can’t keep up the blogging... but I will I promise!
SO here’s the details on this trip (note that if it says zero days, that’s the location and the next entry will be the place I am staying), Main details are in BOLD...
