[A/S] Happy Anniversary Hunter
Hi Gang,
As I was setting up the tv when we arrived here in Gallup, NM I realized that
today is October 1st.......
This marks exactly one year since I moved into the trailer.
One yaer ago I said good bye to my beautiful farm in South Carolina and set
out on the adventure of a lifetime.
Why did I do it? I did it because my long time best friend died at the age
of 48...of cancer. That made me realize that you shouldn't put off your
dreams til "someday".
When I got divorced and sold the farm... someday was now.
Was it all I had hoped?
Yes, that and much more. It's been a wondrous, magical year... I have
memories I wouldn't trade for anything. I have seen old friends and made
many new ones...
Today, here at the KOA in Gallup, a couple pulled in with an Argosy trailer.
I grabbed the dogs and sidled over for a closer look..... soon we were
sharing a beer.... an hour later I was making dinner and we spent a glorious
evening together. I now have a place to stay in St Louis next time I go
through.... like I said, I've made many new friends.
Why am I babbling? Partially because of the wine that flowed at dinner, and
because I want you all to follow my lead if you are so inclined. This
odyssey has been a blast... I have seen so many amazing things here in the
United States.... national parks, baby moose, wildlife, eagles, bears....
mountians, vistas...... this has to be the most beautiful place on earth.....
I want you all to get in your tow vehicles and pull those trailers and see
all the stuff I've seen in the past year.. I want you to meet all te other
wonderful people who are RVing....
Don't put it off too long..... the quicker you do this, the longer you can do
it. (c:
