First Day on the Road
We didn’t think everything would fit in the beetle. And, well… we were kind of right. But in the end, everything important fit. Thank God. We sent a couple of packages to Tulsa, we left some stuff on the street, we donated three suitcases full of clothes and three boxes full of crap, we sold everything bigger than a breadbox, and the rest is sitting in the beetle as we write.
We’re in San Luis Opisbo at the moment — our first full day on the road. We’re settling into a life without timetables and trying not to stress about the little things. We’ve already seen two deer, many steers, black angus beef cows, and, to our surprise, a few zebras. No joke.
Other than that, there’s not much more to report. If you want to see more pictures from our first day, just click on the picture to the right. Flickr, baby. Flickr.

Beautiful sunsets (or sunrise? knowing you two, probably sunset:) How exciting to be seized by the siren call of the open road. You will never be the same. I look foward to more pics and details of your journey. Travel safe. Love you both.
Well, I seem to be unable to flickr. Harumph. But how exciting! And how amazing to see one of your little bottoms (a spondish bottom, methinks, and I should know) disappearing into the sunset! I wish you all the very best and will be keeping you safe with crazy auntly long-distance powers.
Bethany,
I think you have to have a Yahoo account to log into Flickr. They’re very easy to set up — just go to Flickr.com and click on “sign up” — then you’ll be able to peruse our photos to your hearts content. And you can see larger versions of the pictures in which you will be able to tell that in fact, that is Megan’s bottom, and not mine. I’ve started a whole line of photos of Megan as she walks into the distance… I’m not sure why, but there’s more to come.

Well, matching cute behinders are always a plus in any relationship. I can’t wait to peruse the whole series!
