Subject:      Re: Travel.. yeap, this is why I own a van.

I'm already a grumpy old man.
I hate working but have no choice, somewhat.

Yea, it's a question of priority and choice.
Some are happy in their everyday life, some are happy about nothing, they
take the wrong stuff and transform that into good stuff, good for them.

We are all different.  We had no summer, like 3 weeks, it's enough to make
me go crazy. All I see is grey sky and rain, soon, it will be snow.
So in my case, geographycaly nothing help to be in a good mood. All my
activity/hobbies are weather related.

So the van is a great escape, the best for me, i like doing 600miles a day,
even 800. I feel great in the captain seat.

North America still as hidden treasure.

I'm stuck in between gray cement wall, full of dust (sanding), neon light
surround me, even my Sirius radio stop working today... what else.

So in my break i look at colorful picture and video, just to remind me that
there is a better world.

Fall mood I guess.

Darn, i miss the sun.
