I have been meaning to create something to capture the highlights from our summer 2019 adventure and the longer out it gets, the less motivated I have been to do this – just because life moves on and really big, important things happen like the birth of my beautiful granddaughter, Ava. They are back in Brooklyn now (relo’d from San Francisco) trekking across the country in a rented RV! Having them nearby makes our hearts happy.
That said, our trip was absolutely incomparable…monumental. And we know how great it would be to have a “consolidated memory” this amazing, awe-inspiring, humility inducing trip. It’s nearly an hour long, but promise it goes by fast :~) just like the trip. So here we go…
When I put this together and shared with Brian, there were so many moments of “oh, wow” “remember that” — just such incredible memories of what we experienced and the awe of the natural beauty of this amazing country. Most travelers – especially those from foreign nations – don’t get to some of the “lesser” places. As the traveler focus is on the major sites (just like we are when we are traveling to a foreign country) – even many Americans never get to experience the natural beauty of this country – and we bless our visit with thanks and grace for the indigenous peoples, as is deserved.
And now for the next adventure THAT WASN’T. Just as I was preparing this back in early March…well, you know…EVERYTHING CHANGED. Our (non-Chrome Home) trip to Asia was due to launch mid-March and last until early May. I was planning to post this right before we left. Once we knew that we had to cancel that trip, I spent the next week+ cancelling everything and being super bummed (and freaked) out. I had a few more tweaks on this video and frankly was not up for the task – until now. Managing the technology is the hardest part of all this. Anyway, we hope to take the trip in 2021 if the world permits. Countries on our trip include Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam and Japan.
Our plan following our return and recovery was to hit the road for two camping trips (June and October) and weekend trips including a couple of weddings. None of that happened or is happening. We did get to visit Erie, PA on our trip back from picking up the Chrome Home in Jackson in May and then Promised Land in the Poconos in July. We head to Lake Champlain next weekend and then the Berkshires over Labor Day.
It is a weird time, sad time and for people who like to travel – it is tough not to be able to go as you wish. We are so, so, so very grateful to have gone on this trip last year. Really would have done my head in if Covid happened last year.
We hope, pray, believe that there will be more; maybe we will get to do the trips we had planned for 2020 in 2021. Thanks for joining & following. Be safe and well, in peace with love.
Until the next adventure…
