Hi All,
Looking back on our bitter-sweet final departure from Gros Ventre Campground in Grand Teton National Park we took some time count our blessings. To think about the places we have visited and volunteered at during our 18 years of retirement. To think of the friendships and extended family we have developed and the many warm Jewish communities that have welcomed us as we passed their way. Our phone contacts include 163 entries for people we have met while travel and volunteering!
For the record, we have driven our motorhomes 232,878 miles (and counting). Visited 46 US states, 9 Canadian Provinces and 8 Mexican states.
We have volunteered at 3 National Parks, 4 National Wildlife Refuges, 2 National Forests and 3 state or local parks or refuges for a total of 24,902 hours.
There are surely more adventures to come though perhaps at a slower pace. We have promised to not become two old farts sitting in a Florida condo waiting for the restaurant early bird specials.
Love,
Sandy & Carl
