Happy Independence Day

While 4th of July is celebrated as Independence Day, it is also Independence Day for me and Deb. As the country celebrates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence at the Second Continental Congress by 12 of the 13 colonies by blowing things up, drinking beer, grilling hot dogs, and eating apple pie, Deb and I are celebrating our own freedom from tyranny - the tyranny of things, of work, of of living a life controlled by others. Two years ago today, we decided to get rid of our stuff, buy a RV, and travel the country. It was both a difficult and easy decision, and has been one of the best things we have ever done. While you are watching firecrackers and eating hot dogs, Deb and I will be toasting the freedom of the past two years, and the adventures to come - on the road.
