Finally, I found a job that allowed me to travel.  It took longer than we thought.  Since the date we wanted to leave was so close, so many spots were fully booked.  Unexpectedly, the best deal seemed to be Asheville, NC which was the complete opposite direction of our original journey map.  Initially, we thought we would start in the North in Montana, but with the recent news at Yellowstone, we decided to wait for hopefully better circumstances to go.  

Packing for an entire year can be overwhelming. I have been on my trip for a little over a week and there are clearly items that I am grateful I packed and others that will have to earn their spot in the car.  My top 3 most-used items are a candle, my pillow, and a personal blanket.  It is no surprise that these are all comfort items.  Make sure you are not editing them all out, so you can make each spot feel like home.   

I have been waiting so long to share this first post with you all.  Sitting down to write this feels exciting and overwhelming.  Sam & I have been talking about going on an adventure for what feels like forever, but is realistically about 10 months.

Are surprise parties really worth all the stress? The intense planning, manipulation, strategy, tactics, and effort all lead up to a moment that may or may not actually be a surprise.  Since the probability of a surprise being ruined feels high, wouldn’t it be easier to use that energy for literally anything else? Yes.  Unfortunately, I am not in the business of doing things the easy way and recently planned one for my older sister that was Sims themed.
