When we parked at the Walmart for the evening there was a truck parked near where we planned to park for the evening. A lady was sitting in the drivers seat reading. Later she got out and went to the Walmart and returned with a few things. My instinct told me that she was travelling in this vehicle and if so, she would be a very interesting person. I approached the vehicle , chatted for a while and came back and had supper. After supper we invited her over for a tea. What an interesting person, late 60's or maybe 70 years old. Retired , divorced teacher from Saint Clouds Minnesota. She sold her house bought and fixed up this van and has been on the road since last May. Plans to be on the road for at least an other 10 years. Only plans are to be in North Carolina for her grand daughters graduation in May and some place in Illinois in August. Other than that she is just living the dream.
We thought we have visited Georgia , but she had seen a lot more. Great conversation that lasted until 11:00 oclock.
