Starting the blog

Maggie and I, after being prompted by friends and family, decided to keep an online journal of why we are going to wander about and what, if anything, we discover. For an overview of why we are doing this see our blog profile. The short of it is... we don't want to live the way we have been living and want to see what other options are out there. This probably won't be a huge surprise to folks who know us well. Suffice to say we've gone a bit off the deep end since college.

We are in the planning stages now, but we know for sure that we are leaving Atlanta on August 8th. We have rough plans until the end of 2009 when we hope to leave the country.

August - September 2009: Twin Oaks Intentional Community in Virginia (www.twinoaks.org). We will be participating in the three week visitor's program plus the communities gathering at the beginning of September.

September 2009: Harrisonburg, hiking on the Appalachian Trail, David riding from the start of Skyline Drive to the end of the Blue Ridge parkway by bicycle, Asheville, Atlanta, more spots to be planned.

October - November 2009: WWOOFing in Vermont.

November 2009: Work exchange in a Buddhist meditation communities in NY and GA, visiting friends and family in NY/DC/VA, more stops to be planned.

December 2009: Friends and family, hiking and camping, more stops to be planned.

We want to visit as many people as possible- please email if we can stay with you at some point.
