Change may be good, but it sure is hard to make yourself leave what you know, who you know, and how you fit in. We have traded one lifestyle for another. Sometimes, people will say they could never live on the road, but after traveling, we don't think we could stay put!
It is a challenge to take a chance and step out into change and the unknown. I am talking about small stuff - do you ever think twice about... how to get to the grocery store? Where to do your laundry? A place to get your hair cut? A mechanic who will give you the straight up help you need? For us, it changes every week. Boy, do we count on our android phones and the Apps, but when this fails there are always live people to give directions - imagine.
Here is something that will not surprise anyone: everyone loves their hometown. It is comforting to be part of something and making a difference no matter where you live or what you do. It feels good to belong. Nearly every place we have been someone will tell us about a park, a memorial, a bike ride, or a restaurant that can't be missed.
We have set up camp in 35 states, with hopes to add a few more to our list as we travel west this fall. We will continue to seek change. We pray the Lord will change hearts and lives. The small changes are not hard, the big changes are not hard either, as the Lord directs our path. Enjoy the ride.
