Today is the day...

tuesday, january 27

well, the house has been empty for two weeks now....
sis and i and the dogs have been staying here at
the invitation of an angel, one of the first on our journey,
our landlord - seriously, the world could do better with
more people like him in it

it is still dark outside - sis and i are having coffee and
waiting for daylight to pack up the cars...

i have butterflies in my stomach and i still need to
figure out how to replace a headlight bulb, but other
than that, it's time to move...

the weather forecast looks like 5 days of clear skies - it will
be cold at night, but nothing like other areas of the country.
thank goodness i have a fluffy dog to keep my toes
warm when sleeping...

we have already experienced little miracles and
manifestations while this departure day approached...
certain people stopped by at certain times with the
perfect solutions and bearing appropriate tokens of love,
like a thermal tarp and a flashlight that is powered
by a charge built up with hand cranking (no batteries)
and an air mattress; not only that, but during our
cleaning out phase, as we set things on the porch,
the perfect person would come by who wanted it -
we did not have to pay to dispose of anything or arrange
for trucks or pay for ads - people just came by.
special encounters almost brought me to tears, like the
neighbor who got my angel candleholder for his wife
who was home sick, to make her feel better and the
little girl to whom i gave a little tea party set and the
young woman whose eyes lit up when she saw my
selection of colored glass for making windows and
the mommy who was taking some crystals and rocks
home to her little boy who has started to collect and the
old grampa man who wanted a wooden wine box as
a coffin for his old cat who was about to die... - the
list goes on and on - how many people have a garage
sale and end up hugging every other person that stops by?

the point is this, for me anyway: get aligned with your
purpose, make decisions based on love, do the right
thing at any given moment and it is amazing how the
road opens up in front of you, coincidences happen,
synchronicity happens, there are signals to be noticed
and a quiet inner strength develops

and let's not forget to mention the FUN!

to be continued

thank you, thank you, thank you...

we will be heading to Marin County... sis and i did
some growing up there, we will be visiting old, old
friends in Fairfax (a town which hasn't changed much
since my hippie days in he early 70's)

we have an idea to sleep out in Olema, part of
the Point Reyes rec area, or Samuel P. Taylor
campground which is on creek in redwoods... or
in our friends' driveway, who knows? we just
gonna LET IT HAPPEN

Marin is part of our youth, our rock'n'roll and the
freedom we now feel... we are not saying goodbye
to it, we are closing a circle

all i know at this point is that we have food and
i will be warm tonight - other than that - it's
a crapshoot - come on, hard 11!

Boy, girlfriend. I envy you. How refreshing and exciting to be FREE with no clocks to live by.

I am sending you love, comfort and protection during your journey. Let your spirit guide you and you can't go wrong.

Just remember, we are right there next to you at all times.
Love is in the air!

God be with you on your travels. I too wish I was off on my own with my entire family. LOL Hubby wouldn't agree with that. He and I enjoy our "home alone life" although we are threatened all the time with "can I come home" Does it ever end?

I live close to the cities and I am dreading the day when my door is knocked on cause I know that I am not going to go with them.

Wishing you both happiness and light in your trip.

Hope I'm not too late to wish safe journey's. May your trip be one of thrill spills and full of self discoveries. Let the light shine on you with guidance and protection.

Pretty weird, I just got back from little road trip.......nothing like this odyssey though.

You're awesome WineHippie. I really envy your adventure, (and not just cause I'm stuck under 10 inches of snow right now, here in the midwest) godspeed sister :).

A little roadtrip music for ya!
