So even though the art fair was a bust we got a lot of comments about how folks loved the fact that we are taking off for a year in Ruby G. Added to the comments from friends and family, there are a lot of people living vicariously through us. Pressure? Nah. It is fun and validating to have others see our adventure as a worthy endeavor. We believe in it. How nice to have others feel the same way. What is especially rewarding is having our teacher friends talk about the end of summer coming and the return of kids in the classroom. We remember that world vividly. While there is a pang of regret that I won't be returning this year, the pang doesn't last very long as the road stretches out ahead. We have another day to play around in Jackson before we head to the Trinity Alps in California and backpacking (w/pack goats), joining our good friends from our years of living in the Bay Area. So for all of you who are living a bit through us this year. Welcome aboard. There's plenty of room in Ruby G for your spirit.

Yay!
Congrats on the start of your journey, just wanted to say that Brian and I are both rather in awe of your van packing skills. Seriously--I want lessons!
