Going on the advice of friends, Bill, Kim, Carol, Cindie, Leah, Margie, Michael, Judy, Linda, Christy ... our sixty-one day tour of the southern border of Texas was as fine as cream gravy.

From the time we entered at El Paso and exited at Beaumont we felt like we were riding a gravy train on biscuit wheels.

If dumb was dirt, LIB could cover half an acre, but on good advice we went south for the winter and stayed as close to the Rio Grande and the Gulf of Mexico as possible - mostly ranch country with only the rare corporate footprint.

Today, a LIB milestone. A thousand days on the road.

Focusing on our heart's desire and staying true to the dream.

This day is a time to reflect on the thousand "half-loves" we left behind (property, stability, position). To mourn the myriad comforts (routines, doctors, community pool, hair stylist, gardening ...) that we forsook to go a-toddling off like babes in the woods - old babes ...

Too old to nest and not ready to rest.

A kiss on the hand may be quite continental, but a great campsite is LIB's best friend. No dreary RV parks for us. Having a robust solar system frees us from high rates for hook-ups that we don't need and opens up more opportunities for peace, quiet and adventure.

We get a kick out of being unleashed from grid dependence for weeks at a time with minimal conservation effort.

Big Bend may be the best national park you've probably never heard of, but even if you have heard of Big Bend, you will probably never see it.

That's because Big Bend is not an easy reach by any mode of travel and the park welcomes only about 350,000 visitors a year.

But maybe that's good for Big Bend - less is more and all that. Low attendance reduces infrastructure and provides a more authentic experience.

It’s a hot topic these days, the border.

We're visiting the southernmost destinations along the U.S. side of the Colorado and Rio Grande rivers where diverse cultures relax into a mutually beneficial peace and harmony.

In nearly 1000 days traveling full-time on the road, we’ve encountered two kinds of RV travelers.

Are we pushing our luck? Is full-time travel together too much of a good thing? The intrigue merits reflection and a thoughtful answer.

We'd like to share our experience at two campgrounds: a National Park in Ocean Springs, Mississippi (a stellar get-away for art and cuisine) and, a floridorable private resort right off the Tamiami Highway in Sarasota called Sunny south RV Resort.
