 As 2022 comes to a close here in about twenty minutes, i got to thinking about the past year. And what a year it has been. Last year at this time, i was just ending the corporate sponsored holiday break. Preparing myself mentally to return to a job my heart wasnt into anymore, and a career in cooking i thought was soon to be over.  I don't remember the weather, probably cold. Going though the motions. Same old thing. Who knew the wheels would be set in motion 3 months later.

Today, it was 81 and we were in the pool...on New Years Eve. Gone is the holiday break, but thats ok. Sunshine,  palm trees and warm weather are the new norm. Im having an absolute blast with what im doing. I love my job and cooking again. Im just having fun. 

What a difference a year makes.

With that, I say so long to 22. A very good ending to a very good year.  Heres to old and new friends and family.  Thank you for all the love and support.  I love you all!

And where would i be without the most important person by my side? Jesus Christ my lord and...🙏🙏🙏Just kidding.  It's Jessica.😆 This has been such a crazy year for us and we made a great big leap. .What a long, strange trip it's been.  And fun. Man have we laughed. Im so happy i got to do all of this with you ,Baby! I love you!  Let's have more fun in 2023.

Until next time, my Friends.

We've encountered a number of people in our quest to become hippie  bus folk. They would say things like, "You're crazy, Im jealous and I want to do that someday."  Well, this is our "Someday."  So now, when someone asks me how I'm doing? And i reply "Living the dream." I actually mean it. Now we just have to make it happen.  At this moment, we are experiencing technical difficulties with the park brake on the bus. We have a guy coming to fix it i hope. Kinda in a holding pattern. Packing the house has been a lot of fun. So much stuff to go through. We have stuff everywhere!  We donated a lot of stuff to Good Will. Towels and blankets to the local animal shelter.  Gave stuff away. A teenage girl and her dad came to pick up an old guitar i dont play anymore. She plays classical guitar and it was time to plug in. I was happy it going to a good home, and she was happy leaving with an imitation Strat and a pare of Hot Pink boots Jessica had. *WE IN...

We're at it again

 Hi Gang,   So, I had a few people over the last week or two ask me if i was going to blog again. Life buzzed by so quick this summer and honestly, I forgot about it. . So with Too Much 👏👏Time on My Hands, i thought what the hell. Let's write.  After we got back up north, we set up camp in a really groovy place. Ill cover that in a separate post. I managed to go back to my former job cooking at a certian missile defense plant. Matt and I crossed paths like people do nowadays, and back to work i went. It just worked out for everyone involved. I was able to  make money to put gas in The 2112, and help out Matt by doing what i do. Cook. Foodservice is a hard business to keep workers, nevermind good workers.  Outside of the few people i kept in touch with,(Gonz, Sarge and Nicole) noone knew i was coming back.  I spent two solid weeks just laughing at peoples reactions to seeing me again. Hilarious! So thanks Matt for bringing me back into the fold. I rea...

We're Doing It!

 I figured it was time to start writing about what Jessica and i are about to do.  This is all going to sound crazy, and i assure you it is in some ways. But isn't  crazy at all. Its been a wacky ride to this point, and im sure there's more to come.  Start a new chapter, I find what I'm after It's changing every day The change of a season's enough of a reason To want to get away Quiet and pensive, my thoughts apprehensive The hours drift away Leaving my homeland, playing a lone hand My life begins today.  Geddy Lee/Neil.Peart For years, Jessica and I have played with the idea of buying an RV and living the RV life.  A dream we dreamed one afternoon. Long ago. It was just that. A dream.   Well, we got one this year. 35 foot Winnebago.  It's an absolute beast. I love driving it. Just a machine. We planned on doing some work to it, which we did. Redid the entire interior.  Pictures of that in future posts. Take our time, get our shit togeth...
