WELCOME FAMILY AND FRIENDS as John and I begin our retirement & RV Adventure

We are two sleeps away from John's last day at work.  Looking forward to hitting the road. 

We have sold the house and have been living in our 5th Wheel at Brae Island Regional Park in Fort Langley since the third week in October.  Everything happened so fast....house sold 4 days after listing it and the new owners wanted possession within the month, so we both moved through the process of packing our life into a steel storage container like a pair of "whirling dervishes" afraid to stop for fear we wouldn't be able to start again...til the job was done.  Sold or gave away most of what we owned, stored the important few pieces of furniture and family treasures in the 20 ft container and are trying not to look back at the lovely home we made for ourselves in Langley along with all the great friends we will leave behind after our 6 years we have been here.  We can look forward to thinking about where we will roost when we tire of the gypsy life we are about to undertake, John thinks we can do this "gypsy thing" for 10 years but we will be having a family meeting over that idea!!!!

Not sure how often and how creative this Blog will be so be patient with us.  My initial purpose in doing this is to let family and friends know that were alive and doing well, and where we are from week to week, but especially for our granddaughter Lexus who we will miss dearly and hope to stay connected with through this journal.   The parents and kids probably won't miss us a bit???

Hope after were on the road for a few weeks, we will formulate a plan for how often, and whether I can get John's help in telling our story as we go about our travels.    Add your email address to the "Follow by Email" and I think you will be notified when we create each new posting.

Wish us luck!!!
