I birthed this blog on September 28, 2010.
In September 2011: I was in Tsalaskuri, Caucasus Georgia.
In September 2012: Alamogordo, New Mexico.
In September 2013: About to relocate to South Louisiana.
In September 2014: Lafayette, Louisiana.
In September 2015: Opelousas, Louisiana.
In September 2016: El Paso, Texas.
In September 2017: Transitioning from El Paso to Ferguson, Missouri.
In September 2018: Preparing to leave Ferguson for Tucson, Arizona.
In September 2019: Tucson, Arizona.
In September 2020: COVID World ... and Birmingham, Alabama.
I don't know what the future holds, of course.
My current game plan is that I will root myself when I turn 70 so that I can begin the construction of my aging-in-place, third act.
Some time between now and then, possibilities include:
- A spell with the Peace Corps
- Resuming my original rootless plan of relocating yearly in other countries instead of staying in the U.S.
- A year (or six months?) as a tenting fulltimer
- Volunteering for a season at a national park or monument in exchange for accommodations
- Housesitting for a few months in different places instead of my current yearlong tourist-in-residencies
