Once they were teens I would occasionally get the kid who would pause, read and grin. O well. Good for them to know their parents have a life.<br />Nancie N Bartleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943116376807209833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-8767763690350953072014-03-18T15:44:16.120-04:002014-03-18T15:44:16.120-04:00Postcards from places I've visited on the fron...Postcards from places I've visited on the front and a calendar on the far side facing the counter.<br /><br /> I'm sure you could write a marvelous book and Vince's pictures would be marvelous.

The backroads of America, the little gardens, big farms, the immigrant community farms, the markets, the wayside diners with tomatoes out back, finding what America is, now, by how it is, and isn't, eating. And Vince would just kill the landscapes.<br /><br />But...$$$$$! I know I can write from the road, but Vince can't do his current job from da road, and between us, he's the one with the real job. It would have to be heavily funded, somehow, and I just don't know how one can ethically Kickstart people into subsidizing a long camping trip.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-10124015651861553292014-03-18T10:55:19.873-04:002014-03-18T10:55:19.873-04:00Sounds like a grea idea!

We have a smaller camper now which is difficult to cook in- but I know airstreams can be accommodated for many needs (my Uncle rigged one for a wheel chair). If you figure out how to travel for that length of time with a kitteh, PLEASE let me know!! Jan D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
