So, we moved back into the motorhome. 

What you say, when did you move out? 

Well, we had a brief five- day dog caretaking job at the brother’s house. Nice- a very welcoming home. But we are now so comfortable in our small space that it was wonderful to take to the road. So to Julian and beyond we travel!



After spending six months at the beach, coming to the local mountains is great. The quiet is deafening. No freeway background noise or  train whistles - so one is alone with his or her thoughts. 



My thoughts are shallow by choice so I drift off to sleep easily. The wife, however, finds the quiet unsettling. Being alone with her thoughts without background noise will take some assimilation.



Beautiful days and enjoyable campfires find us enjoying small hikes, bikes, sunsets, and wine. Great to be traveling again. Catch up with you soon. RTR

Day 5- Friday Night Musings (Guest Blogger RTR)






Here's the thing about enjoying your life too much. People 
will be skeptical. Some will say, "yeah, but what about...?" 
Then all the preconceived attitudes drilled into them from 
grammar school kick in: do you have a plan for your final 
years? Have you paid off your house? How much do you 
owe? How will you pay for your retirement? Hard questions 
for all. But if your not enjoying every day- and I don't mean 
doing something that I would call over-the-top,skydiving, 
shark encounters, Mt. Everest- then you're missing out.
 My idea of enjoying every day is doing.. just doing... the 
things I enjoy. 


Today I took another bike ride - my route unknown - and I 


found my way. Luckily I have very attainable goals that make

 my heart happy; I hope to wake to find my family doing their 

best and to set an example to enjoy their lives as they see 

fit. Not as their parents see fit.
