The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.  ~Ben Stein

Escapees Director Kay Peterson mirrored our thoughts in her recent “Thoughts for the road” article in Escapees  magazine: For some of us, the size of the home doesn’t matter as long as it is on wheels.  It provides us the security we need plus the ability to see new places.

Being a gypsy isn’t for everyone, we realize that.  In her article Kay went on to say: No amount of either security or freedom will cure the ache in your heart if you live your life the way someone else thinks you should.

So true.  We each have to define what happiness looks like for us.  And so, when an opportunity comes up for Jim to work in Germany, we jump at it.  We remain light and nimble so we can be ready for twists and turns in life, even if it means booking international tickets on Friday afternoon to head out the following Sunday. There is a time for everything and now it’s time to head to Germany!  Auf Wiedersehen!
