It’s just a test run, really… we’re only going an hour or two out of town, but it’s our first RV experience, so its significance is not to be underestimated. We’re heading out to the North side of the Columbia River Gorge this weekend to attend a youth retreat, at which I’ll be playing a lot of acoustic guitar around the campfire, stuff like that… sounds great to me! I’ve been in front of a computer screen quite a bit lately, thinking and working (and thinking about working). The idea of sitting out in the bush somewhere roasting marshmallows with a bunch of teenagers (and a few deer and rabbits) should be just what the doctor ordered.

This RV came to us in an interesting way… the decision was made that we want to travel together as a family, playing music, fighting crime and solving mysteries, etc. A few weeks later our friend’s dad said; “Well we’ve got this RV out here on our land, just sitting around. Why don’t you use it?” We were blown away, but of course we said, “Um, let’s think about it. YES.”

So here we go. The first of our many road adventures… not including our previous continent-spanning road trips in a little Nissan mini-van, of course. (I mean, there’s your road adventures and then there’s your 10 miles-a-gallon apartment on wheels traveling roadshow with a 2-yr.-old road adventures.)
