The beginning of our New Adventure







Our adventure is truly life changing.  Tom and Lorraine are going from running 2 businesses to retiring, selling our home and rental property and hitting the open road.  We have always wanted to see more the US and Canada with maybe a peek at Alaska.  The plans have been set into motion and we are working on our goal of being on the road by Spring 2011.


As of today we are waiting on an offer to come on our primary home.  Should come today.  Then the real fun begins of setting every plan into motion.  


We have purchased a truck to store our possessions we are keeping.  There have been a few months of downsizing, selling, throwing away and giving away many items we just could not keep.  Getting the house ready to sell and setting it for showing.  


During this time Lorraine (me) had to have surgery on my foot to fix torn tendons and ligaments. Put a little delay in the plan while I could not walk for almost 3 months.  Currently I am still on crutches till New Years 2011.  We pushed on to get the house ready and we listed it.  


Now we are looking for a motorhome to pack ourselves, our 2 dogs and 2 cats.  This should be interesting.  The dogs should be fine.  We'll see about the cats.   


Once we are on the road we plan to have updates on what is happening with us.  Tom being the wonderful photographer he is there will be plenty of photos.   So keep up with us and your comments are welcome anytime.
