I've gone and done it! Sold the house of 29 years; sorted, trimmed, and stored my stuff; and hit the road for parts unknown. I've always wanted to be homeless...and now I am:).
Right now I'm friend-hopping my way to Florida where I'll disengage myself of a motorized vehicle. Then after visiting the younger daughter, Dana, there I'll hop a plane (with bike and gear) to San Diego where eldest daughter, Avery, and hubby, Kevin, live.
Then I'll fly from LA to Madrid. An Appalachian Trail hiking friend, April, will join me with her newly acquired trike. Some more friends will join us a week later answer ouch we're heading to hike The Camino dear Santiago for 2 months. Then the bike tour will start. Going from Madrid to Istanbul it's the plan for this summer. And then Australia for a year... And Africa... and then...and then... And then. TBD.
Hold on tight! It's going to be quite a ride!!!
Getting ready has been exhausting. Closing on a house. Packing for storage. Packing for a world bike tour. Fighting the cold of the polar vortex. I'm done. I'm mentally fried. I want to sit on a beach for a week. And...guess what?...I can!! And will!!
Now I'm enjoying Thumper, my AT trail buddy...and wife, Vickie, in the glorious Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Tomorrow on to EZ Duzit's house for a couple of nights.
Reminiscing is such fun!
Livin' the life,
