Refueling

We've been here just a tad over 24 hours. So, it's safe to say it.

We love Gunnison!

To say our moods have improved would be an understatement. We’re cool. We’re calm. We’re in the kind of place where we love to just chill.

We’ll hike and bike and explore, too. But, after the time we’ve had in Utah (and Grand Junction) we both need some time to just be. On this, our first day in Gunnison, we enjoyed a very tasty breakfast at the W Cafe. Over this very satisfying meal, Paul summed up our current state of affairs quite nicely.

“This place is refueling my interest in fulltiming,” he said.

That’s so right. We didn’t sign up for this gig so we could make day-long detours for repairs, or witness dealers trying to screw us, or sit in 100-plus degree heat with half an air conditioner. No siree, it’s days like this that inspired us to make this big lifestyle change.

Afternoon showers. Mountains. Views. Temps in the 60s. We’re soaking it all in. We definitely need it.

And, guess what? We've signed up for a whole month of this.

Yippee!

As in any life style, some days are diamonds, others are stones. :) Enjoy the diamonds!

It's all part of the fulltiming lifestyle, isn't it? I have often wondered, though, why the problems seem to come in clumps. Always a relief to get everything straightened out and back to a "good patch" when things haven't been going your way.

Glad to hear that your all recharged... Nothing like being someplace you love. Side trips for rapairs just happen and are definately the downside of our lifestyle!!
Have fun & Travel safe
Looking forward to photos!

I don't do well in hot weather. I'll take a 60's day with a shoer any time.

I spent a week teaching in Gunnirson. It was a nice town!

You'll love the Black Canyon of the Gunnisons and I have the most fabulous picture of a sunset you'll ever hope to see that I took from our campground (the Western Horizons Blue Mesa park). We were there in September and it was a lovely time to be in the Gunnison area.

Glad to hear things are going better--welcome to the world of fulltiming.
