Thoughts while rolling downhill..........

We're almost there............I could say that we're almost home but then I could also say that we're almost NOT home.....where is home ??       Maybe I'll just say that we're getting closer to the rest of our STUFF.

Before we left the mountains, we had a gathering of friends and neighbors at our house.  Great people, good times.       Then we headed East.

Our departure was based on weather and leaving Montrose in the sun for the beautiful drive over the mountain passes was a smart move.  

Time spent in Denver with family is always a highlight but seeing "Lion King" on stage was over the top.

Kansas is flat and I  visualized the tribes of the plains roaming free.    The prairie grasses are being restored in the middle lands and it is a good thing to see.

Long days through the heartland but we were ahead of the weather all the way.  

Lexington is always a beautiful stop ..... rolling hills with miles of fencing to contain the magnificent horses and spending time with family once again.     Watching a baby navigate upright is always a time of wonder and smiles.

The view through the windshield from Knoxville to Asheville is worthy of repeating in all seasons.   Following the white water rivers, it is a roller coaster ride thru the Tennessee mountains.   And rather white knuckle if you're driving a moving house.....

Time in SC while the rolling house gets its yearly maintenance is a much needed break.  

And then it's southward towards the sun and palm trees and good friends.
