Whirlwind!

Full-Time Travels

On Monday when we locked the door, left the key, and drove away from our mountain house we thought things were settling down. Little did we realize that life would continue to be a whirlwind for sometime yet. Here we are without a bed of our own and no sense yet of feeling settled. Hopefully we will be able to retrieve Bella@, our nüCamp T@B 400, later today and begin the process of refurnishing our trailer but we suspect that organizing the chaos will take a couple of days and that we will continue to sleep in our granddaughter’s bed for a few more nights. And we’ll continue to try to navigate the overwhelming amount of red tape involved in establishing residency in Ohio. Our days are filled with visits to the bank, the insurance agency, the driver’s license office, trips to and from our storage unit,and more. And then there’s the fact that we’re in northern Ohio as winter sets in so yesterday we invested in some additional long underwear. And when we’re back at our son’s house we’re dealing with boxes and bags galore trying to create a little bit of organization. All the while we’re constantly checking the banking apps to see if the hold was lifted on that deposit, if the funds got deposited in another account, if the payoff has been posted in yet another account. We’ve got a long list of things to do today to get us closer to settled into the new lifestyle and think the best way to get started is a good breakfast at Pete’s Restaurant! Whirlwind! Life is an Adventure!

    We know of your pain! We are still in a rental waiting for our house to be habitable mid-January. (Original date was October!)

    We wish you much happiness in your future new adventure and life. Take care of yourselves as you travel and search for a landing spot in Ohio. It will be good to be near kids and grandkids…they can watch over you as you enjoy more time with them. Safe travels.

Slow Journey Home

Slow Journey Home

Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
