So far on this ample list, we’ve got several tremendous projects to take on. First of all, we need to find a way to save at least $160 a week each. Secondly, we need to learn the skills needed to complete this conversion, which we could probably learn from our handy fathers. Then, we need to find and buy a working and affordable bus, preferably an intercity bus since we’ve learned that since intra city buses are made for constant stops, they usually aren’t any good on long trips because of the low gearing. As for school buses, we’ll take them, but we’d prefer a higher quality. (getting a bit technical there) Anyways, we will then need to the collect supplies we don’t yet have to convert it, but this doesn’t have to be done all at once. Next, we’ll need to start the conversion. That is the monster standing in our way. Lastly, we get to make sure everything is in working order, then we can set off!
On our extensive list of destinations and fun seeking activities, we’ve got some ambitious ideas. We wish to embrace the ocean and surf, sail board, kayak, build sand castles, fly kites, collect shells, find a boardwalk, and find nice secluded beaches with hidden secrets. In the mountainous areas, the wild beckons us. While in this seductive area, we yearn to simply climb, hand over hand and foot over foot, the majestic queens who tower high above. We yearn to gaze down into valleys alongside this royalty and humble ourselves with yoga and simple foods. In the wild north, we want to get down in the snow and snowboard, ice skate, let Andy see some seriously deep snow(she has only ever seen light dustings), snowshoe, have a snowball war, build a snow man army and fort, sled, ride a snowmobile, make snow angels, eat snow, and maybe just take a walk. We have many more ambitions, far too many for one measly post. Mostly though, we want to meet new people (and possibly make friends), and simply experience life. Oh! And buy fuzzy sweaters. Lots and lots of fuzzy sweaters.
Wish us luck! Oh, and if you have any ideas for us, just let us know. We’re up for many things. Buh bye for now!
Of the the sweet, sweet universe,
