The First Step (On A Journey of A Thousand Miles)

I have taken the first step on a journey of a thousand miles...in the midst of three snowstorms and with a family of five.

We have pulled up our stakes, left our familiar life in Woodstock, freed ourselves of about two thirds of our material possessions, completed a bunch of projects, and set up a launching pad in rural western Massachusetts (cohabiting with dear friends).

Over the next several months, we intend to plan, prepare, and equip ourselves for an extended family adventure/book tour/homeschooling excursion around the continental US, eventually setting up a new home base.

Cora and I began our relationship over 20 years ago on the open road and we now plan to share the spirit and expression of that freedom with our children. If not now, when?
