As Paul and I are coming up on three full years of retirement, we are completely blessed to have the family and friends that surround us.

As all of you know, that read this blog, we were planning a trip for three months (to the west coast and back) which should have started March 2020. We all had to switch gears that year!

Now, in 2023, we get to do the majority of the trip but we are taking our time.  We decided to caption this trip as “70 days for 70 years” since we both turn 70 this year… Wait, WHAT?!?  Impossible you say?  For real life, this is the truth, even though we don’t look a day over 60 🙂

We were able to take some of the 2020 trip in spring 2021, enjoying the Bourbon trail, Yellowstone, Tetons and Badlands that were on the original trip list… as well as the bonus of stopping in to see Jen and Nate.  This year, the trip is going to be RVing to San Diego and back, 2 weeks in New Mexico for a Habitat for Humanity build, 13 National Parks, 15 states, visit with Jen and Nate, about 7500 miles and a TON of adventures!  Paul will be scuba diving in the kelp forest in La Jolla bay… finally!!

Two months from today (2/3/23) we are off for our adventure.  RV will be inspected, tuned up, towing our Honda Fit all the way, all reservations made except the last 12 days. Of course my spreadsheet is built and nearly full!

As we look at all we have done, there is so much more to see.  Follow along on our adventures (and feel free to make comments on the posts.  They will not appear immediately but I will be able to see them!)
