Finally, we’ve packed up the essentials in our 17/20′ travel trailer (depending on how you measure it!); we’ve disposed of our unnecessary possessions; and we’re now officially on the road chasing the music of life. We invite you to tune in to the music. . .
- . . .TIRE TRACKS, a blog page where you can follow our travel adventures, music encounters, and volunteer opportunities
- . . .OFF THE BEATEN TRACK, a place where we’ll stash information about the places and events we’ve found interesting–the local knowledge about places we’ve discovered off the beaten track.
- . . .FOOTPRINTS, a journal page with a more personal and reflective nature.
Hello there! Just checked out your site and see that you are embarking on your own full-time adventure. Just subscribed to your blog–looking forward to living vicariously through you until our own ‘shell’ is complete. Much of what you’ve shared in your writing strikes chords in my own heart. It’s like something or Someone is calling …and we both heard it. I think because we were created to listen for it. So nice to have friends for the journey.
Hi Angie–glad you’ll be tuning in to our “music”! And yep, Someone is calling pretty loud and clear:) It’s nice, indeed, to have journey-sharing friends. I’m so looking forward to following your herd of turtles. Cute as can be! Hope your “shell” is up and running soon.
HI Susan & Alan,
Since this is the 17th I guess you are living in the great outdoors. Do you go on Sat. to get the new home? Is it 19 ft? I haven’t done anything but sit on my bed with my dog and watch TV. I have got to get a TV for family room. I am having trouble with the outside lights. They won’t stay on and some will not come on at all. I would have been better off just to have ones I have to turn off and on manually. I don’t know what I did to the switches. What do you want to eat on Saturday and for breakfast on Sunday? Going to bedroom now. Lola has been out.
We are, in fact, living in the great outdoors, Lois! Friday we’ll be picking up our new home (travel trailer) in Jacksonville. Good thing, too. We’re tripping over each other in this teeny, tiny one!
Hi Alan and Susan! Such an exciting adventure! David sent it on to me and I’m just now getting to reading it. Guess what, I have been emotionally and financially (just a bit) connected to Christian Ap Proj. for years as I have the books and info from the founding “Father” and since I’m from the NC mountains ((via my grandparents) I feel so close to that culture. What a coincidence as I’ve never met anyone who even knows who they are. Wonderful and I’ll pray it “fits” and brings many blessings to you and those you touch. I’ve often wondered if I could volunteer a year with them and then I think of the grans and the dog and all the excuses….but ye never know. I think it would be such a joy for me to be hearing those accents that are music to my ears and I’d be right back as a child in the ol cotton mill village among the NC(Tenn) mountain people.
Do keep in touch with us when you can. Hugs, Carole
So glad to have you join our adventure, Carole and David!
