Adaptability Means Planning Ahead
I considered writing this with my eyes closed but the pain has eased off enough that I can keep them open most of the time. The harsh firecracker of my fingertips on the soft keys of my Mac is unpleasant. It is, once again, Headache Day. Headache Day arrives whenever it pleases. It is a … Continue reading
Montreal Itinerary
Looks like it's going to take 2 full weeks, 14 days, to make Montreal. Guess I'm not the road warrior I thought I was, but I just can't imagine pushing that hard for that long. Also, I guess I can't just drop in on my Mom, who I haven't seen in nearly 10 years, for … Continue reading
Vancouver Review: Dates & Duration
We crossed the 49th parallel heading north at 9:15 am Monday the 2nd of August. We crossed the 49th parallel heading south at 3:30 pm Wednesday the 25th of August after spending 3 weeks, 2 days, 6 hours & 15 minutes in Canada Still to come: statistics (miles, dollars, etc.), impressions, achievements, and more.
The Verdict
is yes. Sue just gave 30-day notice on the house. She'd already called the phone company and pulled the plug. The two adult children living with us intend to be living elsewhere before the end of September. It's on.
Where There's Internet . . .

Anyone Want to Put the Canfield Family Up for a Night or Two in Portland Next Week?
The best of plans sometimes have to change. We just found out this morning that our lodging accommodations in Portland, Oregon next week fell through. Due to an unforeseen family need, the wonderful family that were going to let us stay with them in return for our coaching services are unable to do so. That leaves us without a … Continue reading
Getting Ready for the Canfields (Another Guest Post)
Caitlyn is back. I am not sure what that means; does she keep coming here because we're coming there? This is something to be looked into, eh? In the meantime, here's Caitlyn . . . I should have taken a picture of myself last night. It was getting dark and I was covered in muddy … Continue reading
Guest Post by Caitlyn James: Who Are These Canfields?
I've busted in here to ask you something. It's Caitlyn ... the Canfields will be staying at our place in August. Joel & Sue agreed to give me some space to do a fun little post pre-launch of their nomad's adventure. I'll hit send before they can do a full proof-read. You'll see why. Seriously, … Continue reading
