Our First Adventure by Tricia

I have to make this short as I am almost out of time on the library computer here in Hernando County, Florida. We have had a great first week on the road and I look forward to adding more to this story when I get more computer time. Thanks to everyone for their support with the sale and we will have to have another in a couple of weeks because we still have many items remaining. We did PAY for the wonderful truck in cash and it did great on the 10 hour trip here.

All is well and we all feel happy and grateful for God allowing us to see our dream become reality.
The kids have learned about Manatees and other wildlife here in Florida. We are going to be visiting a battlefield from the Seminole War today. We have visited a sugar mill plantation ruin and the archeological dig and area from indigenous peoples from more than 1600 years ago. Where there are temple mounds and burial mounds. We have seen two beautiful Florida gulf coast sunsets, swam in brackish water (brackish is also a new vocabulary word) and enjoyed every minute of it. John has had a couple of set backs on the job but should be finished tonight and back on the road to Tennessee in the morning.

I have been given the gift of 10 extra minutes on the computer so I added a few of our adventures. I will add links and other information upon our return. Looking forward to some
mobile technology in some ways but have enjoyed the absence of it as well.

I'm a published poet!!!! by Tricia Baehr

Checking my email yesterday afternoon I notice the new issue of Divine Revolution Magazine is out http://www.divinerevolutionmag.com/ and as I open it I see....my name!! Yes it is true I am a published poet. Two of my poems were published along with some really amazing artwork by some great artists.

I will continue to write more poetry, prose and work creatively because I feel that when I am creating on an artistic level it is not just me but Spirit working through me. The poems were from 2007 during a very spiritually enlightening time for me and I know that soon I will be back in touch with Source more fully than I have been recently with the transition going on.

Almost There by Tricia Baehr

Well we're just finishing up from Sale #1 which I deem a huge success. There are still lots of nice items that haven't been sold like 2 good televisions, a futon, John's Shopsmith, the funky blue couches with matching chairs, lots of household.

Monday morning we spent relaxing around the pond at our Knoxville campground The Crosseyed Cricket. It was wonderful to sit by the water with my cup of coffee, the ducks swimming around, admiring the beautiful colors of the trout in the pond.

By noon we had packed up our home and were back in suburbia to take care of the remnants of our soon to be old life. A trip to Sam's Club for Cookies by Design, cleaned out the mini-van which we have sold.

Found out that our first big adventures will be Spring Hill, FL, then Alabama and on to Charlottesville, VA. We also looked at a really great truck and may be making the guy an offer---seeing that they're picking up my van this morning a vehicle might come in handy.

Much work to be done this week but my vibes are high we are almost there, living our dream.
Much gratitude to all of the forces that have been in our favor to achieve this beautiful new life.
I will be forever grateful to everyone and everything that has assisted us on our path.

Up Early with Tons to Do!! by Tricia

Good grief, Charlie Brown! I woke up at 4:12 am and knew how much had to be accomplished today so here I am blogging while I wait for the coffee to brew.

Count down to the BIG SALE!! Very excited but still tons to do. There are a few piles around the house of keepsake stuff that needs to go to storage and some items for the RV but not a huge amount -- just scattered around. The kitchen needs to be cleaned and a million things to be priced still, seriously this is a big job.

My friend Kyme helped me with the sun room the other day it was a total mess from the dogs but it looks great now. I am so grateful for anyone that is helping us get through these final weeks and days. I just want to thank God for allowing us to fulfill this dream, we all feel so blessed. It is amazing how when you keep you attention on your desires and allow the flow how it all comes together. Loving every minute of it!
Peace.

We are soooo ready to be on the road...

About two weeks to go before we will be out of the house. Whew! this is exhausting but exciting too. I'm not going to blog much tonite because I'm so tired. Friday through Sunday is the big sale and I hope a lot of stuff gets sold--I laughed and told John if we sold everything for a dollar we'd end up with $10,000!! We wish--it sure would be nice though. The public schools started today and the kids were so excited that they are going to be road schooled. Got the web site up and running, still needs some work but I'm super excited about the logo I created. Better get some rest another big day of work tomorrow.

Synchronicity--We think so!

Well the time has come and what we created through vision and thought is now becoming manifested into reality. We picked up our wonderful 28ft. Trail-Lite by R-Vision on Monday, 7/7/2008 and experienced our maiden voyage on 7/11/2008. Twice on 7/11 Tricia glanced at the clock; once at 11:11am and another time it said 1:11pm. If those aren't signs that we're on the right path we don't know what is!!
