So here we are, the time when we say good-by to the open road. We are selling Burnie. Tell all your family and friends this is a steal for the price we are asking. It is already titled as an RV, which makes it much easier (and cheaper) to get insurance! I have tried to list the important info, the good and the bad. I want you to be very happy with this cool Skoolie and enjoy it! Miles are at 155,400. <br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So I have been working a lot for months to figure out a way to cut cost and create a site to sell the GREAT stuff we make. If you like the new <a href="http://organictribethredz.blogspot.com/" style="color: blue;">Organic Tribe Thredz</a> logo, I have opened a <a href="http://www.cafepress.com/"><span style="color: lime;">cafe-press</span> </a></span><i style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.cafepress.com/organictribe" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">http://www.cafepress.com/organictribe</a></i><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> store that you can by silk screened shirts and other items with our logo. I am so excited seeing it all finally come together. Now it's all about adding more items and receiving comments from all of you on what you like and what you think I'm still missing. The other hard part is figuring out how to get the site and our items out to the rest of the world. If any of you have great ideas on cheap (or FREE) marketing please shoot me an email or comment. And I know I'm beating a dead horse, but would you pass the word on to friends and family that would be AWESOME! I would love the world to see our stuff, thanks for all the support! </span><i style="color: red;"><a href="http://organictribethredz.blogspot.com/" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">http://organictribethredz.blogspot.com</a></i></b></span><br />

We LOVE Washington! We spent 4 yrs in Tacoma and started our family there! Our oldest 2 are natives. We got to WA the end of June, just in time to run a 4 day fireworks tent. It worked out nice that one of my good friends lives in the same town that we sold fireworks. So we got to catch up with Jamie and meet her new (to us) hubby Corey and see their kiddos! They took the kids to play and had us over for a BBQ. </b></span><br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>Then we headed over to our old stomping grounds in Tacoma. We stayed with our friends Andre and Joan and their son Dominic. Joan and I had a nice night out..... dinner and walked around downtown. We found some good local music to listen to. Another day we checked out the farmer's market and took the kids to play on the Ruston Way walkway and beach. We drove around town talking about the good ole days and visited our favorite beach in Steilacoom, Sunnyside Beach, where there was lots of HUGE jellyfish washed up to check out. We also made it to Point of Defiance Park Zoo. The kids loved playing with Dominic and all his cool Lego's and electronics! Joan and Andre introduced us to a SUPER funny show Flight of the Conchords! The adults had a nice night out to a yummy Mexican place and we went to downtown to look at all the cool glass art and marina. </b></span><br />

While visiting them in beautiful Seattle we did our favorite things that we use to do there. Like see the Troll under the Freemont Bridge, See the Space Needle, visit Mike and Joleen's new sail boat that they are working on and yes of course it wouldn't be a visit to Washington if we did not do the Pikes Market and watch the fish be thrown around. We also spent an afternoon with Mike and Joleen at the Lake during Seafair. </span></b><br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Onward we headed further up North to Probably one of our favorite National Parks now Cascades National Park. It was so peaceful and beautiful. We got in some amazing hikes (some of the best we have ever done)! On one of our hikes we had the dogs running back and forth on the trail. When we were heading back down Coco decided to run off the path and chase a deer he had seen. We thought we had lost him for good. For minutes we yelled for him and nothing, then he finally decided to show up. We looked up above us and there was a deer looking down at us. We thought that was strange, the deer then disappeared and for some reason we were whistling and the deer reappeared over us. He looked at us for a few minutes and then disappeared again. We whistled gain and he reappeared again. We couldn't stop laughing about it. We thought this was a trained deer, and someone left him in the woods. The deer actually listened better then Coco did. Another hike we hiked miles up to a lake that had a glacier still and ice burgs floating in the lake. So what does a crazy family traveling the country do. They strip down to nearly nothing and run into the freezing cold water, SCREAM!!!! like girls and run back to shore and get attached by the biggest bugs ever seen by man. What a wonderful time we had in the Cascades.</span></b><br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">After the Cascades we headed over to Anicortis and the San Juan Islands. We went there to meet up with our sweet peeps on the road The Chinchens! We boon docked with them for a week or so over looking the water and some of the other islands. Had a blast with them. Steve went with Jason to watch him play a show at one of the local bars, we got together and jammed with them, and with doing so we found out that we have an awesome drummer in the family (Isabelle). She rocked the studio. We went to the beach and had a wonderful picnic. We went on awesome bike rides around the Island as a large group, it must have been a sight to see all 11 of us riding around together. While we were in Anicortis Winston learned how to ride his bike with out training wheels. Yah Winston! Thanks Kara and Jason for the good times!</span></b><br />

Nothing like seeing the skoolie and the VW on a ferry. We crossed over to Port Townsend. We again met up with Jamie and Cory and kids while they came up to camp at Fort Worden. We toured the run down Fort and looked for surviving ghost. It was kind of scary. We did a day on the beach with them and went to the local farmers market. One of the best farmer's markets we have ever been to.</span></b><br />

We are going to try to get more stuff up on the blog soon. For now I would like to share the new site that I have started putting together. <a href="http://organictribethredz.blogspot.com/">organictribethredz.blogspot.com</a>. I want it to be a site that I can show off and sell our craftiness and in the future I'd love to add friends and family creations as well and help get their stuff out there. Etsy, Ebay and other sites have not worked so well in the past. It seems I post an item on those sites and I end up selling the piece in person and then have to go on-line and take it off. The Christmas season is coming up soon so enjoy the site as I add more things. Comment if you will on what you like and what I should add to the mix. I only use 100% recycled fabrics for my creations. If you have a special order shoot it my way and I'll see if it can be done. Thanks for all our friends and family who have bought our items the past few years you guys are the best! As I said I will be posting more of our travels soon.</span></b><br />

Usually we do short term jobs like </span><span style="font-size:85%;">remodeling</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > or seasonal/ holiday jobs. Most last 1-2 </span><span style="font-size:85%;">weeks</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >. We decided after visiting Bryce Canyon (BC) in March for the funeral that it might be a good place to stay for a bit. We love southern Utah & since Steve has a ton of family there that we didn't really know we thought we'd pick up a job & explore the area & get to know some more of his </span><span style="font-size:85%;">relatives</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >. The kids were really excited to meet some cousins too! So we got jobs as ATV guides. Our boss was one of Steve's 2</span><span style="font-size:85%;">nd</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > cousins and a pretty cool guy. We worked 3 or 4 (12) hr days then we had 3 to 4 days off to play. Of course the "work" was riding ATVs on </span><span style="font-size:85%;">beautiful</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > trails and seeing wildlife. It didn't pay squat, but it had to be the funnest job we've had! This was our 1st work camper job and we found that we were MUCH younger then all the other work campers, which we kinda assumed, but hoped for </span><span style="font-size:85%;">at least</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > a few other people our age. We'd met some really sweet people there. One of our neighbors (also work campers) was always bringing treats by for the kids (and dogs) and surprising us with little gifts. We are truly blessed to know them! Others have been a bit </span><span style="font-size:85%;">ummmm</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >, stand offish. I think our dreads had really thrown some of these ultra </span><span style="font-size:85%;">conservative</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > people. We really had hoped to get to know some of the family, but </span><span style="font-size:85%;">unfortunately</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > I think they are all too busy with their daily lives. Our kids have been real troopers, but our long days at work had wore on them and they were really missing friends. Even though we travel full time they have always had /made friends everywhere we've been. </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >When we first made it to Bryce, we met up with The Chinchen family, one of our favorite families on the road. We also had fun meeting up with Jana Smith and her boys, thanks Jana for dinner and the good times. We went on many hikes. </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >We had been in Bryce for 2 months and it was time to move on. Over all we really enjoyed our time at Bryce and have some wonderful memories to take with us!</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >Some of our side trips we took on our days off were a visit to Zion's NP. The older 3 kiddos took Steve up to hike Angle's Landing, Winston & I played in the river. We did the </span><span style="font-size:85%;">Riverwalk</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > hike as a family (the prettiest I think) and I took Lincoln & Winston to the Emerald Pools. We had hoped to hike the Narrows, but the spring run off made the river huge & cold...44! The kids did the JR Ranger program and got to add another pin to their collection!</span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >Another trip we took was up to Blue Spruce campground which is off of Devil's Backbone. This drive was beautiful! We stopped to play in a river and collect pretty rocks. We were hoping to find Jasper, but didn't really know what it looked like.</span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> </span></span><span style="font-size:85%;">Memorial</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > </span><span style="font-size:85%;">weekend</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > we spent with my sis & her family in St. George. We did a fun/ challenging hike near Silver Reef. Which included climbing a bolder with hand holes & a rope. Then we ended up at a slot canyon and had to swim to get through it. We made it to the bottom of a little waterfall. none of us were prepared for water so we swam in our clothes. It was a bit more </span><span style="font-size:85%;">extreme</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" > then the easy going hike we had planned, but we all loved it and the kids did great!

We visited the SLC Children's Museum twice. Once with our FOTR friends, Gayle & Eddy, and another time we took Mylie and Sage with us. It's a huge new children's museum and we get in free! We also visited the Clark Planetarium which is always fun, with Karen, Nate & Margaret. I took Lincoln & Isabelle to a play with Karen, Nate & Margaret too. I took the kids to the SLC library, which is our very favorite library! We spent a day with Grandmom Sloan exploring the BYU art museum, which was really really neat! Then we dropped by the small BYU dino museum, which even though it is small, it has some really cool stuff! We made it up to Park City with the kiddos to meet up with our new friend Jenny O. She showed us some really cool rocks & gems at Park City Jewelers and let the kids cut geodes. Then we rode the trolley up & down main street. </span></span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Smn_3JdP6hI/AAAAAAAABOo/fd5LuCQ4xCI/s1600-h/SL190737.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Winston celebrated his 5th b-day in Utah and usually we do something small as a family, but he had 2 parties! One at Chuckie Cheese with his cousins Mylie & Maddy and Uncle Scott & Aunt Crystal and his new friends Damek and Kyan & Grandmom & Papa Lovelace. Then another one at Aunt June & Uncle Matt's house with the Sloan crew. His cousin's Curtis, Annabelle, Easton, & Britti & baby Cadin were there along with Grandmom & Grandpa Sloan, Nick & Amber, Brian & his girlfriend (Rashel....I think?) So needless to say the kid got spoiled! Winston asked me the next day if he was gonna have another party! I think he thought turning 5 meant you get a party everyday! LOL! It was really special to get to celebrate with so much family!</span></span></div><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Slau3_te1CI/AAAAAAAABKI/sS_EiukYoF8/s1600-h/SL150013.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

So tell all your friends and families about our Etsy store. I just added new stuff to it yesterday and there is much more coming in the future. If you decide to open an Etsy store tell them we sent you, I think we get some kind of points for it.

The funeral was to be in Bryce Canyon Utah. We decided to all go and show our love & support for our family. We spent a night in Las Vegas on the way. We forgot how UN-kid friendly Vegas is till we got there. It was unusually cold & windy and the few things we thought we could do with the kids was closed...the pirate show, the tigers, the volcano, ect. We did get to see the fountains at the Bellagio, which sprayed us cause it was soooo windy, but always really neat to watch!</span></span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqyOwm-I/AAAAAAAABFo/5ElBXY18908/s1600-h/SL100626.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqyOwm-I/AAAAAAAABFo/5ElBXY18908/s400/SL100626.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330911394054314978" border="0" /></a>the kids in Vegas<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqnT5dAI/AAAAAAAABFg/xkF3GNLNL1Q/s1600-h/SL100619.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqnT5dAI/AAAAAAAABFg/xkF3GNLNL1Q/s400/SL100619.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330911391123076098" border="0" /></a>Bryce remembering her favorite cartoon<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqiaJbNI/AAAAAAAABFY/YacW_YxerHU/s1600-h/SL100610.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszqiaJbNI/AAAAAAAABFY/YacW_YxerHU/s400/SL100610.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330911389807111378" border="0" /></a>the kids at the world famous FAO Schwarz toy store in Vegas<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">We got into Bryce Canyon the night before the funeral. It was a beautiful drive from Cedar City! There had been a big snow storm the night before and everything was white. We had never seen Bryce in the winter and it was beautiful! A big change in weather seeing as we have spent most of the winter in Mexico & sunny LA. It was really nice to see so much family! All of Steve's siblings made it to the funeral except Kathy & Heather (who were missed). It was sad to say goodbye to Grandmom, but a good time to bond & reconnect with family. There were cousins there that Steve had not seen in years, children we had never met and we had a really nice time meeting & catching up with family. Our kiddos had a great time playing with cousins & seeing Grandmom & Grandpa & all the Aunts & Uncles! We are really blessed with amazing family!</span></span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0t3AHPxI/AAAAAAAABGg/5n2ZEsYQfgM/s1600-h/SL110653.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0t3AHPxI/AAAAAAAABGg/5n2ZEsYQfgM/s400/SL110653.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330912546386296594" border="0" /></a>the snow levels in the mountain to Bryce Canyon was amazing<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0t89taJI/AAAAAAAABGY/OXhr4epTmPE/s1600-h/SL110640.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0t89taJI/AAAAAAAABGY/OXhr4epTmPE/s400/SL110640.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330912547986827410" border="0" /></a>part of the drive up to Bryce Canyon<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0truR-YI/AAAAAAAABGQ/Yc2LH_W6Eb0/s1600-h/SL110660.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0truR-YI/AAAAAAAABGQ/Yc2LH_W6Eb0/s400/SL110660.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330912543358712194" border="0" /></a>Red Rock Canyon, this is on our way up to Bryce Canyon<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0tftrtHI/AAAAAAAABGI/41OXlbT0sIU/s1600-h/SL110665.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0tftrtHI/AAAAAAAABGI/41OXlbT0sIU/s400/SL110665.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330912540134978674" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0taQ-HmI/AAAAAAAABGA/2sE6fzgVr4A/s1600-h/SL120685.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfs0taQ-HmI/AAAAAAAABGA/2sE6fzgVr4A/s400/SL120685.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330912538672373346" border="0" /></a>cousins carrying Grandma to rest<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfszq88i89I/AAAAAAAABFw/ULsB3jHyVCk/s1600-h/SL120694.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sfszq88i89I/AAAAAAAABFw/ULsB3jHyVCk/s400/SL120694.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330911396930712530" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszrNHdRFI/AAAAAAAABF4/W_CXI48FgEw/s1600-h/SL120692.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SfszrNHdRFI/AAAAAAAABF4/W_CXI48FgEw/s400/SL120692.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330911401271444562" border="0" /></a>left to right - Steve's parents and Uncle and Aunt<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156345302777773110.post-14983681773916066472009-04-30T07:58:00.000-07:002009-04-30T08:18:51.050-07:00Huntington Beach and Disney<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Bryce's sister and her family came out for spring break to go to Disneyland and see the beach.

He met up with us another day too at the LeBrea Tar Pits which was really interesting and FREE one day a month, which happened to be the day we were there. A must see if you are in LA! There is tar still bubbling up from the earth. not really what you expect in the middle of LA! Lots of really cool ice age fossils of huge sloths, dire wolves, mammoths and lots of others! There is an open excavation pit where you can watch them work too. We boondocked right across the street from the pits.

We met up with Steve's Aunt and Uncle and their friends Donna and Doyle. We have heard about cheap dental and Optical. So we decided to go and try it out. We headed to Yuma area of Arizona to stay in the bus out side of the Mexico boarder. We boon docked for a few days and walked into Los Algodones to see the dentist and have our eyes examined. Over all the price was great for not having health insurance and it was great to get local fresh tacos. We were tired of the long lines we had to stand in to cross the boarder back into the States. One night crossing we stood in line for at least 2 1/2 hours. We had a great visit with Steve's Aunt and Uncle and their friends. </span></span><br /></div></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SdRBVdrKBbI/AAAAAAAAAzs/T0bjaWBzmMg/s1600-h/SL100808.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

The RV park was called "Concha Del Mar". The great guy in charge of the Beach front park is Edgar Penuelas. Edger went out of his way to make our family and all the others we were with feel at home. If we needed local info. Edgar found it for us. If we needed something fixed he would fix it our shop around town for a good price for us. We are so grateful for everything he did for us and our friends. If any one ever wants to visit Puerto Penasco near Playa Bonita Resort, go see Edger for a great place to stay. There are no hook ups, but there is a place to pump out sewer from RV and water tap to fill RV. </div><div><br /></div><div>The showers are new and very warm. Very nice bathrooms. The view was to die for. This trip to Mexico was wonderful. We made many new friends, and enjoyed the time shared with old friends.</div><div><br /></div><div>If you are interested in going to Puerto Penasco and wanting a great place on the beach here is the info for "Concha Del Mar".</div><div><br /></div><div>Concha Del Mar</div><div>Edgar Penuelas</div><div>Tel: (638) 103-1137</div><div>pedgar626@hotmail.com</div><div>conchadelmar2008@hotmail.com</div><div>Price is $10 a day</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DcCuVIwI/AAAAAAAAAw8/AkN1MpzsfdE/s1600-h/SL070705.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DcCuVIwI/AAAAAAAAAw8/AkN1MpzsfdE/s400/SL070705.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314040234367066882" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Leaving Mexico</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DcM1Qb9I/AAAAAAAAAw0/lghQgXAAOSM/s1600-h/SL070698.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DcM1Qb9I/AAAAAAAAAw0/lghQgXAAOSM/s400/SL070698.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314040237080473554" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">We had to leave our Lemon and Orange Tree with Edgar</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DbzWvnMI/AAAAAAAAAws/ayY6LPkt7Vk/s1600-h/SL070697.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9DbzWvnMI/AAAAAAAAAws/ayY6LPkt7Vk/s400/SL070697.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314040230241606850" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Isabelle, Bryce, Edgar, Conner, Steve, Lincoln and Winston</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9Db6Y_VPI/AAAAAAAAAwk/hL2gToPNtWM/s1600-h/P1250408.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9Db6Y_VPI/AAAAAAAAAwk/hL2gToPNtWM/s400/P1250408.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314040232130073842" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">FOTR families staying at "Concha Del Mar" on our own private beach</div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9Dbj3SmfI/AAAAAAAAAwc/Tvh10APhkfM/s1600-h/SL250198.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/Sb9Dbj3SmfI/AAAAAAAAAwc/Tvh10APhkfM/s400/SL250198.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314040226083150322" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">FOTR rigs in Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point)</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156345302777773110.post-64843874533132206582009-02-16T10:42:00.000-08:002009-02-16T11:27:26.133-08:00Simply LivingI have been blog lazy for a few months letting Steve take over. And he has done an amazing job. I just have been thinking I should post some things out, some thoughts. We get questioned often about how we live and how we do without lots of things, why we live this way. Lots of questions. Well we feel strongly about experiences and little about things. I've always wanted to travel and love to explore. We are life learners. We love to see and do. To learn about things up close and personal. We could read about all the cool interesting places we go and teach our kids out of a textbook but why not let them experience it, live it. Some people like having the security of a stable house, job, life. Others live that way cause they are stuck in the rat race and want out, but are afraid to take the leap. This is YOUR life, what are YOUR dreams? As a good friend told me once, YOU need to make a decision and then make it happen.<div><br /></div><div>So for us, living in an old school bus, cooking on a camp stove, hauling water, using a composting toilet, not owning a shower or bathtub, not owning a washer/ dryer, not having some of the basics (by some peoples standards) are OK with us. And sometimes they make life more fun. Not owning a shower/ pool means we get to go find local pools/ showers across the country and check out all kinds of pools, hot tubs, hot springs. Cooking on a camp stove means we keep our food simple and hauling water means we know how to conserve....big time! Using a composting/ sawdust toilet means our waste is not going into your drinking water....and conserving water again. Not owning a washer/ dryer means I only do laundry 2-3 times a month and get it all done in 2 hrs at the laundry mat, while I read a good book. We own much less clothes then most US families, and we recycle if it's not dirty. How can we live in such a small space, 40ftX7ft with 4 kids 2 big dogs and a cat? Well we really don't mind the small space, except the cat which often tries to jump ship. We have the world as our backyard! We are often found hiking, biking, swimming, exploring, so when we get a rainy day or we feel like staying home, we all just find our spot and relax, read, draw, make crafts, listen to dad play guitar, play games, ect. Hopefully this answers some of the questions about how we live and why we choose this lifestyle. We feel so very blessed to be living our dream! </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156345302777773110.post-73614351043359823732009-01-31T15:27:00.000-08:002009-02-01T22:12:11.493-08:00Friends, Sun and good times<div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Well we are still alive here in Mexico. You would think being in Mexico on the beach that we would have plenty of time to catch up on the blog. Here we are 2 weeks later after our last blog entry. We have done a lot of fun things since we have been here. Bryce and I have celebrated our birthdays, we have visited a place that has a whale skeleton and a shop made from tires and dirt called an Earth-ship building. We have walked the beaches and seen many of its living organisms. We have meet new friends, welcomed the LOUD family to our beach and had to say good by to the Dudley's. We are really enjoying our visit and invite all of you to visit here if you ever have the chance. You won't regret it. Enjoy the million pictures we have posted</span></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">.<br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SYaEEZk_hSI/AAAAAAAAAwI/g_Gt1AGqrrw/s1600-h/SL170021.JPG"><img style="display:block;

We also went to visit Joleen's Grandmother, who has lived in the town for many years. She is a wonderful lady. We have really enjoyed our stay here in </span></span><st1:country-region st="on"><st1:place st="on"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Mexico</span></span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">. We can't complain with the sun, ocean and the relaxation that together they bring. The kids have had a wonderful time playing at the beach all day long. In the mornings we like to get up and walk down to the beach while the tide is out and we study the ocean life that is exposed. It's fascinating the things you see when the tide is out and the things it uncovers. The dogs have loved running along the beach and chasing the birds in which they will never catch. The Sunsets are beautiful, but you have to see them in person to get their full effect. </span></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color: black; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Today we took some locals that live in tents on the beach some fresh Papaya fruit.

They are all from various places in </span></span><st1:country-region st="on"><st1:place st="on"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Mexico</span></span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">. They live on the beach and rent out chairs to tourist to sit on. Some of them also sell timeshares. They were very nice and did not push it to hard on us. We have on the other hand had more then we can handle of locals walking up and down the beach day after day trying to sell anything and everything to all of us visiting the area. They have tried selling lots of things to the kids as well. The </span></span><st1:country-region st="on"><st1:place st="on"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">US</span></span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"> economy has really hurt the Mexican people. It was a real awakening Sunday driving around the real parts of town (not the beach area) and seeing how the locals live. Very simple, small shacks or houses no grass and lots of wild dogs roaming the streets. For the most part the streets are sand and dirt and are not paved. We feel like the bus we live in is more then most of these people will ever have. We are very blessed for what we have and the wonderful children we have. Enjoy the pictures from the last few days.</span></span></span></span><span style="color: black; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SW2Ngxn0OOI/AAAAAAAAAnY/054zzX5_pbY/s1600-h/SL120001.JPG"><img style="display:block;

We didn't know what to expect, but it was there was not much to it. We drove across and the Mexican authorities waved us through. It was then about another 1 1/2 hour drive down and over to our destination. We are on the Sea of Cortez. It is an amazing site. The Dudley's drove us around some of the local town. It's so amazing to see how simple other counties live. We are camping on the beach around hi class resorts, but away from the beach is another world. The people here are doing terrible now that the United States is not doing well. We have added pictures of yesterday and today.

You can feel the excitement in the air that we are close to leaving for Mexico. We are all so excited! We met up with another family on the road last night. They are the Dudley's. We are hoping to have a few other families come with us as well. The Dudley's have a grandmother who has lived in Mexico for many years so it will be nice to have a local we can turn to for all the great local stuff. We will be right by the beach during our stay there. We made it to a National Park yesterday in Tucsun, it was Saguaro National Park. Lots of Cacti and other desert plants and animals. It's always so peaceful when we are in National Parks, you can feel nature around you and not the busy every day happenings. We do not know what our internet options will be, but we do know we will not be using our cells often. We hope to have running email and updating the blog. If anyone wants we can bottle some sunshine and send it to you with love......Unknownnoreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156345302777773110.post-37067063429027233282009-01-06T15:19:00.000-08:002009-01-07T23:05:30.432-08:00Fireworks, New Years and moving on....<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;"><strong>Christmas day we headed down to Easley, South Carolina to work at a fireworks stand for the New year. We worked a larger scale tent back in July in Boone NC. This stand was alot of work to get ready to sell to the public, but it was much easier then the July tent. Once again we had a front row viewing area of people watching. There are some really crazy people out there.</strong><br /></span><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288325167208986482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPnuIg_93I/AAAAAAAAAfY/tjSGHx1sxqk/s400/SL270081.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div align="center"> our Skoolie Burnie</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288325159092102642" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPntqRyJfI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/vDxvy8m8aYo/s400/SL270080.JPG" border="0" /> </div><div align="center">All the product in boxes</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288327129295120034" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPpgV2yZqI/AAAAAAAAAgI/MF9DOv9QmEQ/s400/SL010009.JPG" border="0" /></div><div align="center">Let's sell</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288325191921704306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPnvkk-HXI/AAAAAAAAAfw/27giEYgjJ9E/s400/SL010006.JPG" border="0" /></div><div align="center">Lincoln and Winston helping with sales</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288325175512323298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPnuncq1OI/AAAAAAAAAfg/zfmcE1HGcOo/s400/SL270084.JPG" border="0" /> Isabelle and Lincoln having some fun<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288327126711897026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWPpgMO5i8I/AAAAAAAAAgA/xcS5sECtmvg/s400/SL010008.JPG" border="0" /> </div><div align="center">Coco and Shelter</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">Julie H. took Lincoln with her and her boys ice skating he loved hanging out with Clay and Reed.</span></strong></div><div align="center"><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288648631409151426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWUN6Oj_jcI/AAAAAAAAAh4/AANLl0JtnBo/s400/ice02.JPG" border="0" /> <p align="center">Clay, Lincoln and Reed</p><br /><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288648624332423090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_m13rVTqNCPs/SWUN50MxP7I/AAAAAAAAAhw/d7jJPekvJHI/s400/ice01.JPG" border="0" />Clay and Lincoln</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;">When we went back to Asheville from doing fireworks we stayed with Julie H. and her kids again.
