a-HA! The blog lives! Perhaps you thought we decided once and for all to spare you our rambling missives? Or that we found true happiness in South Dakota and decided to end our travels there and settle down? Wrong on both counts.
This isn't going to be a long-ass catch-up posting. I'm too lazy for that. If you haven't already talked to us and want to know what we've been up to for the last two months, email me. Or Jacqueline.
The big news is that we've sold the Bus. A very nice man flew out here to Oakland from Fort Collins, Colorado, paid us in cash, and drove off into the sunset. It was very sad. Both of us got a bit moist in the eyeballs. But she's in good hands, and we've been promised pictures.
Speaking of which, if you look left and up a few inches, you'll notice four shiny new links. Yes, more photos! I've broken them into more-or-less bite-sized chunks. Resist temptation to start at the top--the "New York to Minnesota" gallery is chronologically first. I've also added a couple more "People with Bus" photos to that gallery.
We're currently back in Oakland, living in our tent in my sister's backyard. We leave for France on the 30th (to avoid having to come up with Halloween costumes). Then begins part deux of our adventures: the wedding planning. If we manage to get our merde together, we'll take off again for more travelling: Egypt, India, Nepal, SE Asia. Then back to France in the Spring. Target date for the wedding: June 26. Pencil it in, and start saving your pennies for the flight over.
That's it! Painless as promised, no?
