My First Post


We are getting excited!!

After remodeling all our bathrooms and fixing the roof twice, we sold our house last spring and moved into a rental house.

     This was the first step on our road to new adventures. We plan on taking a long term (possibly permanent) sabbatical starting in March. We will spend a month packing up and putting our stuff in storage before we head off across the country in our new fifth wheel camper (our new home). We have accepted jobs for the summer in the Tower Fall General Store at Yellowstone National Park as cashiers, where we will work and play in an amazing part of the country.  We will be there until September when we’ll head off to our next adventure somewhere else.

     We’ve taken our camper on its maiden voyage and learned that it even has enough hot water for my long showers (as long as it isn’t tooo long). We’ve tried out all the systems and Grandpa Fenton even had a good night’s sleep on one of the guest beds. We’ve got our binoculars, walking sticks and our amazing inflatable kayaks (that fold up into a large bag), all ready to go! We will “work camp” around the country for as long as we are having fun (and can afford to continue that lifestyle).
     I will try to keep this updated about once a month when we are on the road. Or at least when we have Internet or phone service. We will be in Wilmington until about the first of April when we will head out for a leisurely trip across the country. Wish us luck and keep in touch.
