...and they may be right but, here we go. Ellyn is retiring from her IBM job of 34+ years on Leap Day and we are preparing our house to go onto the market in May. If all goes well with that and with other plans we have, we would like to be on the road in an RV by mid-summer. Our dream has been to take a one-year, open-road-ahead, where-do-we-want-to-go-next type of excursion of North America.
When we tell people this they look at us like "are you sure your meds are working correctly?". Hopefully the reality of it will not be as hectic as the lead-up is going to be. We had a realtor go through the house with us yesterday and talk about everything we should do before putting it up for sale and the list is very long. However, with a little elbow grease and perhaps some help from outside sources, we can do it and divest ourselves of much of the worldly goods we have hoarded over the past 21 years in Danbury plus the other 9 years we have been married.
In April we will celebrate 30 years of marital bliss and hopefully, shortly after that, we will start another 30 of retired bliss. You may be right, we may be crazy, but it just may be the lunacy we're looking for.
