So after three days of no service, I finally have internet once again – sort of and can share our caravan experiences! Let’s categorize it accordingly… Friends … Of course we’ve fostered many new friendships as we travel with Baja Winters, but the “leaders of the pack.” if you will, are John and Becky Smith. … More Mexican Friends, Flora, Fauna and Food!
Every so often, even workampers deviate from their regular plans to do something adventurous and new. We worked the crazy Florida kiosk job during November and December so we would have the time – and the money – to join a 30-day caravan to Mexico with Baja Winters. Caravan, you say? Mexico? Correct, on both … More Dropping Off the Grid…
With only a few days to spend in San Diego, a priority was a visit to the San Diego Zoo! I had heard so much about how wonderful the zoo was and believe me it certainly lived up to its reputation! The San Diego Zoo covers 99 acres of beautiful flora which houses over 3,700 … More If You Could Talk to the Animals…
So, what does a couple do after spending 2 long, yet interesting, months at a kiosk in basically a cocoon state of mind? Well, after eating homemade salads and sandwiches each day – that is until we morphed into consuming a daily fast food mall treat as the weeks went on – one thing we … More Is There Life After the Kiosk?
Here we are, less than two weeks from Christmas day. We are now up to 13-hour days at the kiosk, and believe it or not, Bill and I are still speaking – some days less than others! The next week will bring even longer hours – designed for those who wake up and realize they … More Countdown…Two Weeks and Counting!
Well, we made it through Black Friday and the holiday weekend – people clamoring to buy that perfect NFL or collegiate team gift! Whether it be the ever-popular plush throw or the newly sought after team totem pole, we had it and people purchased it! Why, then, do I sit here today (and the past … More Lament for the Shopping Mall!
So far the mall traffic has been slow and steady, gearing up for the Black Friday experience – six hours on Thanksgiving night and 16 hours on Friday, November 23 – and, yes, we will be there too! I’ve discovered that a mall truly is a microcosm, reflecting all aspects of our larger world. Although, … More Mall Musings…
So…you haven’t heard from us in a while, but now we are back in action! We enjoyed our time in NJ, but as the weather got colder, we knew it was time for us to depart and head for warmer pastures! As I have mentioned, as a workamper there are more traditional jobs such as … More Worth the Wait?
As Teddy Roosevelt once said, “Believe you can and you’re halfway there.” His words rang true last week as Bill and I embarked on a Road Scholar program entitled, “From the Mason-Dixon Line to the Potomac: Hiking the Appalachian Trail in Maryland.” Together with six other hikers, an awesome guide, Ben, and four different sweeps … More One State Down…13 To Go!
As I have previously mentioned to my workamper blog followers, and other friends as well, no matter where you are traveling, working, or relaxing, there are certain events in one’s life that cannot be missed. One such occasion occurred this past weekend, as our first stop upon leaving the beauty of northern Michigan was Susquehanna … More A Weekend of Football, Family, Friends, and Fond Memories!
