Had been traveling a lot

    As i was looking through my Facebook pages, I stumbled on one of the apps which have in my list,  the US Traveler Challenge. Modesty aside, i rank number one from the list because there are only 3  US states that I haven't been yet. Alaska is one of the three which I am so curious to reach and feel how it is to be there. Since childhood, my idea of that place is white because of snow and ice and chilling and life is hard but seeing the ads, watching tv series about life there, my interest to see that place grows. Hopefully someday. Cruising will be best. 
    Winter had been brutal this year, long and cold and it was so hard for me and my husband but life is a struggle and there's no reason to stop moving wherever the roads lead us. For more than two years of living on the road, I learn to love the beauty of winter no matter how harsh it was, I also learn to like the smell of fuel and the nerve breaking noise of some trucks at night at the truckstop. I even learn to feel at home in every restrooms and bathrooms we happen to stop. Most of them are far beautiful than ours at home. I am learning and I am happy.
    My crafts and sewing  while on the road with hubby driving make my time pass unnoticed.
    I am still looking forward to complete the list of US states.

Thrifty Tripper: Great to be home

Thrifty Tripper: Great to be home:     Three weeks on the road, that's pretty long for wintertime.  Boots, sweaters, scarves, thick socks, gloves, bonnet, and winter coats...

Great to be home

    Three weeks on the road, that's pretty long for wintertime.  Boots, sweaters, scarves, thick socks, gloves, bonnet, and winter coats are all in the trunk. We traveled in several states from southeast to mid and northeast and a little of north west. Our mini pantry was packed with foodstuff plus the cooler with all the bottled water ready for the powder juice of different flavors. My husband loves drinking juices but not plain water. With our new venture, new places had been added to my list and to my photo folders. Most places we usually delivered were situated at industrial parks. Everything we loaded were new to me. Well...i am happy, i am learning.










   Now we are home to unpack and pack again for the next trip. Fill the pantry, see and bathe the dogs, enjoy some precious moments with the people we love, update bills, visit some thrift stores, and most of all go to church on Sunday to thank the Lord for all HIS blessings.
