Yesterday Brodie the canine left with his family to Van Isle. We miss him. We keep expecting to hear his gentle whine waking us up in the morning or to hear the pitter patter of his little feet on the stairs or hardwood floor. When we got home last night there was no welcome home from [...]
. . . and they're off. Again.
Two things are immediately apparent:
This house is going to be quiet without Brodie the Wonder Dog, and
it doesn't take long for the right kind of people to worm their way into your heart on what's likely to be a [...]
Ian and Caitlyn have arrived for a quick overnighter before Trip #2.
Beans on the stove, brown rice and cornbread in the oven, homemade salsa in the fridge.
It's gonna be a great dinner, followed almost instantly by waffles (or pancakes, no one's decided for sure) for breakfast.
By bedtime tonight we will have tripled the amount of time [...]

I asked Brodie, the dog we're sitting for, to write a guest post for us today. I thought it would be a good idea for him to share his viewpoint of having us house sit and take care of him. I had a little trouble translating so I apologize to Brodie if I didn't get this [...]

Sitting here recovering from this morning's headache, I'm watching Fiona play tug-of-war with the dog we're watching.

Fiona has never been comfortable around dogs. Our life so far has made caring full time for a pet impractical. Even when [...]

We [...]

So I've been working on streamlining our possessions. I've pared down the clothing quite a bit, tossed a bunch of trash, took 12 bags of clothing to Goodwill today. There's lots more to go. I've been holding on to clothing for years that no longer fit or are worn or that don't have as much sentimental [...]

Vicarious Nomads
You may not be in a position to drop everything and travel the world. (We might not either, but we're talking about you right now.) If you'd like to participate vicariously, your financial support of this adventure will help us to document it, and hopefully show that even today (perhaps especially today) a family can choose where and how to live.
We're not expensive folks. Even the smallest amount will make a very real difference.
