Little metal box


It's the 11th of June, still a few weeks to go, watching world cup early Sunday morning, a little blast of internationalism before the trip starts. Really sinking in now, we are going to do this big thing, an abstract notion has gained a life of it's own, pulling us along, lists of tasks and a bit of stress, Darby has 4 more days at work, I am already finished, the house is a bare walled shell, our bus is gaining features, an awning, a storage box, LED lighting... We will be moving from 950 sq. feet (100 sq M) to 90 sq. feet (10 sq m), wow that's tiny! We have lots of bus camping experience, both Darby and I grew up in families that owned them and D and I have had one for the almost 10 years we have know each other but it still seems amazing every time I walk outside and see it that we will live in that little metal box for a year...

The photo is from a trip we took with our friends Calissia and David to Burning Man last summer, taken at Hells Canyon in eastern Oregon.
