The beginning of the next chapter


After much planning, preparation and a sabbatical from work, Ryan and I are beginning our next chapter. It includes a big SUV, a 30 foot travel trailer, bikes, kayaks, backpacking gear, climbing equipment, hiking boots, a little courage, an adventurous pair, a positive attitude and a little savings...the sunshine and mountains are calling us...American West, HERE WE COME!


First we must say goodbye...Thank you to so many friends, neighbors, co-workers, and family for the great send off :)

Celebrating Leah and Dad's birthdays and our journey
Me, Lori and Tracey at Slow's BBQ in Detroit for WSU buddies reunion 
JUGS at Bob's Bar, Lucy-Pam, me, Lesley and Carolyn
Kevin, Lindsay, Ryan and I at Bel Lago on the Hoover Reservoir for happy hour


Packing it up! We have blown fuses, flooded bathtubs, attempted to burn fingers...and we haven't even left the driveway yet :) I have a feeling that we have a lot to learn. Tomorrow is the big day, May 3, 2013.
