Meandering

We recently happened across a couple of new fulltimers who are up to what we are planning. Suzanne and Brad are passing through our state on a one-year break from the working world as they travel the country in their travel trailer.

Sounds like big time fun to us.

In an email exchange, they explained that they are meandering in the general direction of south through the state, with no particular place to go until Dec. 1.

Now, that sounds like bigger fun!

Meandering. What a great word.

We looked it up. It means: To follow a winding and turning course; or To move aimlessly and idly without fixed direction.

It dawned on us. We've never meandered. And, that's sad. We've almost always had to be in a certain place at a certain time and spent most of our energy getting from here to there. We've had neither the time or space to meander. But, we absolutely LOVE the idea.

Meandering. We can't wait to give that a try!

(Meanwhile, best wishes for safe and happy meandering for Suzanne and Brad and all of the happy fulltimers out there.)
