The Wind of Change

It's in the air in full force! Something is brewing as our time in Yellowstone winds down. Although we are coming back next summer it is kind of sad watching this season come to an end. This place has been so good to us. Unlike our other trips in Destiny... people have not been our main priority. It's been all about nature, self-examination and growth. It has been a huge adjustment for us, our life together has always been so social and this summer we kind of turned into little hermits. Partly because- financially we can't really afford to do much, the other part is we have just been really enjoying each other and all the amazing creations around us. Every single week we have been able to discover a new place or have been able to take a new adventure. Not only is Yellowstone National Park in our backyard but we have Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming all with 10 miles of us. There are so many rivers, lakes, trails... it's impossible to run out of places to explore here. I feel guilty if we go to the same place twice. So yes, we are kind of sad to see it come to an end.

We will be taking the coastal way back home, taking our time. We hope to be home for the holidays this year- but it's all up in the air. That's the thing about full time Rv'ing, you often have more questions that answers. That's what makes this whole lifestyle absolutely crazy. there are ALWAYS more unknowns than knowns. And for a Type A, planner, organizer, do-er - this is where I find the biggest challenge and greatest blessing. I have to let go, drop the reins, release the steering wheel and have complete faith. 

Sure...

We don't have enough money saved yet,

Ya....

I don't know when our next paycheck will be after September 13,

And yes...

even gypsies have bills to pay

And....

We have no plans or jobs lined up from November-May of 2014

No money, no job, no direction.... sweet

Now hold on for the ride!

Although I could be (and sometimes do) freak out over these little transition phases in our life (that come often) I cannot be worried because every single time a door opens, and just in time. Never early and never late. And honestly, not just one time has this happened, or even a couple of times... but EVERY SINGLE TIME! It is a scary and absolutely beautiful thing to be in the hands of the Creator of the Universe. We said that we would go wherever He wanted us to, we told Him that we didn't need money or nice things, we told Him that we do whatever He wanted us to..... 

so now we wait.

We will wait with joy, embracing every minute of this place, inhaling every ounce of the un-polluted fresh mountain air, stare at the millions of stars that we see every night and the glowing milky way. We will recount all of the blessings this summer and the times of growth. A wind of change is a'blowin and we will wait with excitement as we anticipate our next mission!
