Some Favorite Things...1

One of my character flaws is I start things out with a bang. I have fantastic starting ability.  It's the follow through that kicks my butt. Let's not even discuss finishing.. I fear that will happen with this blog endeavor.  I'll post randomly, as thoughts fill me, or I have an impulse to purge. Maybe daily? Maybe not..

Right now, some of my favorite things, pressing thoughts, current passions.

I love the outdoors. And a big part of my life in a few years, is to pull up my roots and exchange them for wheels and travel.  Boy, my heart swells at the thought of traveling America as a nomad, of sorts.

Having said that, I've been spending more time around the internet, researching, looking, questioning how others do this, and the tricks and tools of the trade. One of the segues of my searching is a new podcast I discovered, Hang Your Own Hang, a podcast for hammock camping people. Here, in episode 2, I learned about Hennessey Hammocks, and man, I'm lusting badly.. I'm even wondering if, when I trade in my getting-tired-queen-size-mattress, I wouldn't go with a hammock. Heh. I'm sleeping alone, so it's not like I have to worry about robust activities there.

If you don't know me, you'll learn that many many thoughts like that float through my brain; and it's highly doubtful I'd actually follow through. I just enjoy musing about things.

Speaking about camping and saving space and backpacking and being generally earth friendly in nature. I think I'm going to migrate to this in my home :) Because cardboard tubes? Stupidity.
