Ohhhhhhhhhhh, Mexico
Okay, if you want a great read, you must go here. This family is living my dream.
We have talked about doing something like this for years. We almost moved to Guam in 1998. Bill had a job lined up and everything, but after talking with a family that lived there, decided it would not be something that we should do. There was also a job in Cancun, Mexico, but I am not sure we ever really figured out why we didn’t take it. Chicken, maybe?
After reading travelogue, I plan on lighting the fire under Bill! Our kids are growing so fast. The time we have to do it is soon going to slip away. <sigh>
Anyway, go read her blog and dream!

Last year (??), the newly non-Governor of Maine and his family did a year’s RV’ing around the country, and gave periodic reports on NPR. There was another family where the mom wrote articles for Salon. And years ago, I lusted after the cross-country adventures of Vicki Austin and her family, the summer before they moved to New York. (I had a total thing for the Austin books my L’Engle.)
All of which is just to say, I also love the idea of homeschooling it for a year and traveling. But there is no way my husband could survive: he’s very much an introvert and the kids, in that small space, would probably cause permanent mental damage to the poor man. So this is a dream deferred, and lived vicariously for me. Glad to see there are new places to look.
