We Offered The whole lot And Hit The Street, RV Life Begins Now

So the time has come to hit the highway. We have now spent the final 6 months residing in our RV, not removed from residence and close to all of our family and friends. As we speak we are literally hitting the highway and residing the Nomad Life for the following 2 years.

We’re going to cease and see just a few associates who stay out of state over the following couple weeks, however then, the place we’re headed subsequent is a thriller.

Haven’t we been planning this journey for the final decade? Shouldn’t we all know the place we’re headed? Sure we positively have been speaking about doing this for some time. So lengthy in truth that everybody stored saying we have been all discuss. Nicely guess what, we’re doin it.

And so far as having a plan on what we’re doing and the place we’re going, nah.

My complete stress stuffed life has been deliberate, and scheduled, and ready for, and skilled for. I’ve acquired the gray hair to show it. So at present we’re leaving all of that behind. I’m hitching my pony to my wagon, tipping the brim of my hat down, then cracking the reigns and getting the hell outta dodge.

We positively have it a lot simpler than the pioneers that headed off to the west with out figuring out what’s on the market. We’ve acquired our highways, and grocery shops, and bridges. We don’t even want to consider fjording the river, we are able to simply drive over it.

The thrill tho… that electrical feeling… We’re doin it.

For most individuals freedom is simply an thought. An idea that all of us inform ourselves we’re having fun with to the fullest whereas we’re chained to our bosses schedule to pay for a home that the financial institution truly owns for many of our lives.

Not us. Not anymore.

The place will we go?

I dunno, I’m gonna observe the setting solar till I can’t see it anymore. We’ll make camp for the evening beneath the celebs away from the massive metropolis. We are able to all stretch our legs for a bit, the horses can relaxation, and we are able to get some slumber till we really feel the heat of the solar kiss our pores and skin once more within the morning.

And for the primary time in a very long time, there’s no hurry to saddle up at present. No, As we speak we are able to take our time and sip our espresso whereas we watch the canine run via grass kicking up the morning dew as she performs within the open air. Even she will really feel it. Even the canine face has a smile that received’t go away.

As we speak we get to look to the horizon in each path and resolve which approach we wish to go. Can we head south in direction of Texas? I hear they’re giving every household 4,000 acres to boost cattle.

Can we head north to the Dakotas? We are able to observe the bison via the Black Hills, and disappear into the dangerous lands like Jesse James.

Can we head west towards California? I heard folks say there may be a lot gold all you must do is stick your shovel within the floor and you’ll choose up a nugget the scale of a potato.

Hell, I don’t care which approach we go, so long as we don’t keep right here watching our lives dwindle away just like the fog of your breath within the wind on a chilly January morning.

For me I don’t actually care concerning the vacation spot, I’m trying ahead to the journey.

I’m trying ahead to revisiting The Dakotas. I can’t wait to go again to the Dangerous Lands far-off from anybody else. Possibly we are going to simply head to Yellowstone and hopefully I received’t must battle a bear this journey. Hell perhaps we are going to go proper previous it and straight to the Big Redwood Bushes earlier than exploring the California coast.

I’ve stated for a very long time I used to be born within the mistaken century. Not having a plan for our locations is as shut as I can ever come to that Lewis and Clark expedition into the unknown lands previous the place the map ends. Day-after-day goes to really feel just like the day my spouse stated get within the automotive lets go for a drive, and we ended up at Niagara Falls.

We are able to take this journey as severely as we would like or not severely in any respect. Greater than seemingly will probably be a mix of each. I can see us doing all of your regular journey weblog stuff like climbing within the Grand Tetons, and the next day heading as much as Washington for the Sasquatch conference.

Possibly we’ll head off into the desert and camp within the again nation the place nobody else has been for a century, or perhaps we are going to spend per week at an RV resort hanging out with different nomads within the sizzling tub buying and selling tales of our adventures.

We spent the final decade taking small journeys throughout the nation to go to the entire decrease 48 states at the very least as soon as, and now we get to return and go to them once more and spend much more time in all of them. We have now met some superb folks alongside the best way and are actually trying ahead to creating new associates on this subsequent model of our adventures.

Small city America right here we come.

You probably have any, and I imply ANY solutions, irrespective of how bizarre, on locations we must always go, or issues we must always do, please tell us. We have now stopped in every single place from the Big Ball Of Twine, to Captain Kirks Future Start Place, to The Museum Of Pure Historical past and Yellowstone. Assist us make this subsequent 2 years as attention-grabbing and as quirky as attainable, and if ya see us on the highway, Come Say Hello!

Nicely, I suppose the one factor left to do now could be whistle for the canine, crack the reigns and holler Yippee Ki Yay.
