I’ve been pondering this since I go back home and I think it’s time. My Kaya doggie can’t jump into the camper, nor up onto the bed because of her lack of foot and I’ve decided to buy a house ! I’ll get some other camper set up eventually – one that my gimpy dog can get into and onto the bed for snuggles. And with my wanderlust, this site and my adventure blog will continue. I bought my Four Wheel…

Thoughts on 2018

Thoughts on 2018

A little recap: In May 2017 I was offered a position with IBM in Columbia, Missouri and relocated back to the Midwest. That month I adopted a little Shih-tzu I named Sullivan (aka Sully) after the small town in SE Missouri from where he was found. http://www.no-destination.org/index.php/2017/05/08/no-matter-where-you-go-there-you-are/ I enjoyed my time in Columbia, Mo., and my work at IBM. In July 2018 I had the opportunity to work remotely and went back on the road with my two dogs, Argos…

Destination : Home

Destination : Home

I left you off at Tucson after finding the puppy dog, Trinity – now renamed Kaya, after Kayenta, the closest town in Arizona from where I found her.  I decided to relocate to Tucson. It made a logical sense – southwest where I love to camp and explore, university town, not too large a city but big enough to have lots to keep me entertained and fed, a good motorcycle community I could easily plug into…. But things kept not…

Not All Who Wander are Lost…unless they are

Not All Who Wander are Lost…unless they are

Synchronicities and decisions. After a nice visit, I left my friend’s house in middle-of-nowhere-not-far-from-Breckenridge Colorado. It had snowed for two days, first day had melted off, but forecast showed much more on the way. It was time to skedaddle.  If I had remembered that another friend lived in southern Colorado, I would have gone to visit him and his wife. Instead, I drove to Valley of the Gods, UT., one of my most favorite places, found this heart at a…

Adventuring with Anxiety

Adventuring with Anxiety

This is a day-in-the-life snippet of how anxiety can affect me.  I want you to know you can adventure alone, as a woman, as a person with anxiety and panic attacks, and still have it be a good experience.  September 29, 2018 I should have moved my camper to another spot here when I had the chance. Now it’s too late – all the spots are full and it’s dark outside. It’s been five hours and I haven’t been able…

Bumps in the Road

Bumps in the Road

(Bryce Canyon National Park, UT) It’s not an adventure until something goes wrong, right? I’ve had difficulty with  my solar set-up for ages – almost since I got my camper. The place from where I originally got it didn’t figure it out, so I put up with not camping in one location for longer than a day or two in order for my power generating to keep up with my power use. All I have is a little dorm fridge…
