Go-Day

On March 7, 2016 by Jay McCormick

I’m sitting on my patio in suburbia drinking a yuppie beer looking at a starless sky and listening to sirens nearby and asking myself why the hell do we do this.  We’ve been doing a lot of this kind of thinking lately (for the past couple of years actually).  We escaped the cookie cutter life for a over month last year and are tripling that effort this year.  Mark Twain once said that “twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.”  Well, that pretty much hits the nail on the head.  After a long heart to heart with my better half this morning we’ve decided that we’ll execute our plan (no debt, a custodian for the casa, etc.) and we’ll embark on an adventure of all adventures and May 20, 2017 is our Go-Day!   A minimum of one year on the road doing the things that would disappoint us if we didn’t do them.
