Last year Alex retired and we finally (FINALLY) moved to our beautiful home in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina. However, we were so busy with 90th birthday parties, new granddaughters being born, visiting with family, and just moving in we did not really get to enjoy it much. Then, we drove our RV to Florida in October, and lived in central Florida for the next 5 months (two adults and three dogs in 400 sq feet...yikes!), and in February we did some globetrotting--Belgium, India (of course), Crete, and Germany. When we got back to the good old USA, we left for our first cross country RV trip.
Living in an RV full time is definitely not my thing, but traveling cross country was sure fun....and we saw so much of God's beautiful creation, rekindled old friendships, recemented family ties, and had a great time. In actual numbers, here is how we spent our spring:
- Six weeks
- 6049 miles
- Fifteen states
- 135 new birds to add to my "Big Year"
- One indoor skydiving
- Two broken RV windshields
- One inoperative microwave
- Ten crockpot dinners
- Four nights of dry camping (no power, water, or sewage hookups)
- 26 friends and family members visited
- One scare with the Lexus not starting
- Countless county, state, and national parks visited
- Over 400 photos
And through it all, holding us all together in His divine providence and grace...
ONE AMAZING GOD!
