Charging on

Again, we are moving.  I can't count the number of times we have unplugged the van and traveled down the road to another persons back yard to park for a few days or maybe weeks.  I will be very, very, glad when we can settle down in one place.  It is coming Saturday I think.  Yay!  But during our sorjourns we have had some awesome moments.  We have shared insights with friends.  Made new and better friends.  Had lots of laughter and, I, have come to know the reclusive side of myself.  As much as I love spending time with my friends, I have found that I am not at all distressed by the prospect of days in the van alone.  In fact, I enjoy it.  There is a sense of freedom rarely experienced by me that I revel in.
But, even this joy will end, on to other things, and I look forward to those too.  Who knows what lies ahead?  The threat of being mowed down by a milk truck?  Not likely, there aren't many of them around anymore.  Winning the Lotto?  Even less likely, there are more milk trucks out there than lotto winners.  It is the anticipation of the possibilities that stir me.
So we move.  Charging on to?
