TACOS CONSUMED

I was not brought up on the term “Leave no trace”. I was brought up on “If you see trash, you pick it up!” My Mom has always drilled into my brother and I that you should leave a place cleaner then you found it be it a beach, a military housing unit, a trail, a rental car, or a city sidewalk. As a kid I chalked it up a mom-ism, and did as I was told. Now, I look back and I’m incredibly thankful and proud that my mom brought us up to respect every place we’re fortunate enough to experience. So Mom, this one is for you. This (basket and all) is what I collected on a hike down a remote beach in Nova Scotia. Thanks @kroghnest for raising me to treat everywhere like it’s my own backyard.

“Webster's Dictionary defines "wedding" as the fusing of two metals with a hot torch. Well, you know something. I think you guys are two metals. Gold medals.” -Michael Scott
As of today Owen and I have been married for 3 years and something tells me the next three years will go just as fast as these have! ❤️

Last night as Owen and I made our way to camp we kept seeing signs for whale watching tours. Jokingly, I said “If I was a betting lady I’d say we will see between 12-78 whales from camp tonight.” Owen who has never seen whales in the wild before just laughed and said “yes, that sounds like a pretty accurate number”. When we pulled into camp we scrambled out onto the rocks to take in the sea scape that we would be calling home for the night. After a few mins we both heard a deep echoing exhale on the horizon. Whales. Turns out we did see well over 12 whales last night. We watched the sunset as whales breached and slapped their tails and we woke in the middle of the night to the sound of breathing whales that had moved close to shore with the rising tide. This morning just after dawn, I watched the whales from bed for over an hour before our alarm went off signaling it was time to start work for the day.
We sadly don’t have any pictures of the whales because we don’t have a zoom lens in our camera quiver. Instead we just sat back and enjoyed the show.

A photo of a girl and her home, once upon a time.
We recently had film developed that goes all the way back to our journey to Orlando to start building Amelia. It’s amazing how film photos make things feel like long lost memories even though they were less then a year ago. #filmisnotdead ~

The Milky Way over these clear summer skies have been keeping us up way past our bedtime. But you won’t hear any complaints from us. ~

We’ve been back on the road for a month today. We’ve been moving so fast this past month that we had yet to just sit still and just enjoy our surroundings. So this past weekend we made a point of slowing down to recharge the batteries.

A lot has changed for us recently, as I'm sure you have gathered. After 3 weeks on the road in Amelia we quickly realized that she was not going to be a long term fit for us.

Free Time On The Road

Over the years (wow it’s weird that we can say that), Owen and I get a lot of questions about life on the road and we’re ready to start tackling those questions one by one. First on the list? Free time on the road, how much we have and what we do with it!
