Headed Out Solo this Morning
I’ve not traveled with the trailer much without Cindy, of course, I’ve not done much of anything without Cindy. And I leave this morning for a few days of travel. Thankfully with good friends. Not sure how travel will be alone. We had well divided the chores and responsibilities of every trip. She did most of the detailed planning, she handled the food, the inside trailer stuff, I did the driving, the outside, and other tasks “as assigned.” We had such a small space that everything was carefully stored and a delicate dance took place inside the trailer. Who moved where when, who did dishes while the other did X or Y, all to make the most use of our time and space. Feels lonely and empty in here now. I struggle with the food a bit and have less confidence in what I am doing. I am less confident about handling the food requirements in a safe and useful fashion, backing into tight camping slots with no one guiding, putting the right thing in the right place and much more. I am confident I can work it out eventually, I am confident that I have great friends to travel with , to visit, who are open to a coffee or a meal and absolutely confident that God blesses effort and can make a way for the most inept camper ever. So off on this short, hopefully, instructive, safe, fun and restful jaunt. You cannot see the end of the journey so you plan, start and follow the road to adventure.
