You could always move your overflow stuff into one of those "POD" thingies. www.pods.com Then when you decide to settle somewhere you could have it shipped to you.
Man. . .I am really sorry to hear about that. I lost my house in NJ a few years ago (do I detect a trend?), so I can relate. At least this didn't happen until the kids were grown, right?
Here's hoping that you have some great adventures ahead!
And thanks again for all the great Scooterpalooza memories. Sad to think they're never to be repeated. Maybe someday in Wyoming. . .
Seriously tho Scoot, best of luck in your adventures! I know it's not how you wanted it to go but sounds like you are looking ahead as well as behind in this situation, so wishes for smooth sailing and following winds. And don't forget to keep us posted! As someone who loved the Scooterpaloozas and our trip the Kipnis Studio Standard I'll miss ya but look forward to hear how you are trucking on.
I'm in eastern Washington, so like you Dennis, we're in the "Empty Quarter". Kind of a pathetic name, makes it sound like we live in Antarctica or some desolate place on earth with few other people. Not entirely accurate.
The ScooterPalooza screen frame got taken down last summer after a storm nailed it. I was going to do that the year before and use one of the inflatables..but my motto is..:
Why put off 'till tomorrow, what can be done next year!
As far as any RV, I will be incorporating some of the best gear here into it. Have pity on the other folks parked around me!
Scooter, I don't live in Wyoming, but it's only 30 miles away. This is a great area. Still, there are only two cities in Wyoming I would find livable. Jackson and Laramie.
Hate to hear of your troubles, but your attitude is going to place you in great shape fairly soon. Patience and prayer will get you through almost anything, and as you alluded, sometimes we need a little nudge to take that next big step.
And Scooter, even though things may look bleak and scary now, change isn't always a bad thing. Quite often things work out for the best in the end. Even when change is forced upon us and not our decision. Might be a difficult concept to grasp at the present time but it might help you think a little bit more positively about the future. And in a spin-off of CSN&Y's "Love The One You're With", be happy. No matter where you wind up.
