2021's big adventure was fantastic. Everyone remained healthy, including Liberty until the very end when Doreen came down with a cold! As a precaution she saw her doctor today and took a COVID test which came back negative just a few minutes ago. We did not have any significant truck or RV malfunctions out of the ordinary. There was no bent metal and no one was injured making this adventure! No, seriously, if you consider the 12,945 miles we drove through 22 states, camping in 35 different campgrounds (thats 35 setups and 35 tear downs), we are fortunate. There are a lot of "knuckleheads" out there on the road that really don't pay attention to what they are doing.
Doreen, Liberty and I want to pass along our sincere thanks to all y'all who followed along on our adventures this year and posted great comments of encouragement. We love our part time wandering life visiting these great United States of America. There is so much to see and do, and everywhere you go there are different cultures, different scenery, different foods and beverages. Reconnecting with friends, relatives and military comrades - those who we served with along our 42+ years of military service is what really makes the traveling fun. And now we have an extended "FamAlly" - those Alliance RV owners we have met online and run into at campgrounds everywhere! But with all that, for us, there is no place like home, Toto! We are glad we have a "sticks and bricks" to come back to and "reset" a bit. Some day the full time RV life may be what we choose, but not right now. We also plan to continue our summer travels and winters in Iowa at least for the near future.
Finally, a special thanks to our son, Dan, for stopping over to our house weekly to check things over. We could not do this without all your help!
So until next spring when we launch out on the next great adventure, that's a wrap!
