Beginnings

Third life, sometimes referred to as retirement, begins at the moment you free yourself from years of working at a regular job. I see this as an opportunity to do, while you're still healthy, many of the activities you have been putting off; to express yourself artisticly in ways not yet tried; teach what you can to willing learners; to visit old friends and family; to Reflect on what life has given and rejoice. So thats what we are going to do! Our beginning will start with a trip out of Alaska by pickup truck. We will travel to Haines, AK where we will catch the ferry headed south, land at Bellingham,Wa and drive to Boise, Id, to pickup a camper. Then we are off to destinations south, Utah, Arizona and California. Eventually we will return to sunny Alaska. Along the way Monica and I will be journaling our thoughts and observations through our writings and photographs ... stay tuned!
