Some people are wondering if the kids and I are still planning to go on the road full-time in an RV when Cliff goes to Iraq. I am doing some serious soul searching now that I am home from Texas. Part of me wants to stay put and part of me doesn't. We want to go for financial reasons and safety concerns, I mentioned several weeks or more ago. A prison sentence will be ending in the next year or so for someone we helped send to prison last year. And plus I really want to travel and not be tied down to the ho hum of home. But then part of me sees that life on the road will not always be perfect either. Cliff is as torn as I am. We may just put it on the market the first week in May to see what happens. Then if it sells we will be looking for either an RV or some inexpensive place to live. I have no idea what is going to happen. I feel time will tell us what we need to do. We don't want to jump into anything at the moment. Cliff is really sad about not having the house to come home to. I think we have so many other things and changes going on that it is hard to let go of this house. But we may also need this fresh start in our lives. Hopefully by May we will know what we want or don't want to do. We still have several things to finish here before we can list for sale anyway. And I am the one who will have to bust a move to get those things done as Cliff will be out of town most of April.
It will be interesting to see what happens. We'll keep you informed.

Boy, that is a lot to worry about. My little brother is in the Nvy right now, but not very close to Iraq at all--he is in California.
The idea of traveling around in an RV sounds like so much fun. I guess the only drawback I can think of is if they needed to contact you very quickly (gulp) could they find you? and the other is what if the price of gas went up...
love, Kas
