I have been busy since I got home on February 20, 12 days after I started my journey.  My first order of business was to see a neurologist.  Although he couldn’t provide any insights in why I was having the brutal cramping in my legs, he adjusted a couple of my meds.  This seems to have helped somewhat.  I think driving less may also help.  As a friend reminded me, this trip is a marathon, not a sprint. Wise words.

The other major change is finding and buying a class C RV. This is roomier for all four of us. It has one slideout, a rear kitchen, lots of storage, and is 25’ long, exactly the length I was hoping to find.  Bob, the seller, has all of the papers, is having the slideout checked again as it stuck during my checking it out, and will have it cleaned.  I am very excited.

This time at home has been very productive.  I have been able to address some things I need to do, doing them sooner rather than later.  I am selling the van, and in fact may already have a buyer. I will be able to vote in the primary in person rather than by absentee ballot. The corner of the basement that has water will get taken care of. And I have some paperwork that I can get done as well. Hopefully this will clear my mind (and my conscience!) as I hit the road again.
