My inclination at this point was to cry. We had a plan...then life happened. Despite having had the truck checked out thoroughly at Arnprior Ford before heading out, that Murphy's Law guy reared his ugly head! Having said goodbye to our co-workers, we hit the road, feeling slightly giddy with excitement. Destination: Akwesasne Mohawk Casino, just south of Cornwall.

In October 2010, Marc and I retired, hit the road and never looked back! Our blog allows us to share stories and photos with other travel enthusiasts. Enjoy!

Due to the escalating violence at or near most U.S.-Mexico border crossings, we have opted to skip Mexico this year. But stay tuned...We are determined to make it there next year!
Let's hit the road!
As many of you can attest, we have been planning our retirement for a very long time. If I were to venture a guess, I'd have to say at least 5 years. So heading out at this point is simply icing on the cake!
Now, we must confess...
