Next Adventure in the Works

It is the first day of Spring and I am jumping ahead to our August adventure. I think I have a tentative plan for our next phase of Compassion Jaxon. This one will have to be on our continent again until I can figure out the funding aspect to go further.

Matt will be leaving for a brief Tour of Duty (TDY) in Iraq in August, so I think that Jaxon and I are going to head out West for a 4,000 mile loop from Montecito, California to Redwood National Park to Eugene, Oregon, to Spokane, Washington, to Bozeman, Montana, to Estes Park,  Colorado, to Guadlupita, New Mexico, to Sedona, Arizona and back to CA. I would like to rent a Hybrid and drive through this part of the country that I have not much explored. We will stay with friends mostly along the way and let our spirit of adventure guide us! I think we will try to go for 4 weeks, however that would mean Jaxon would miss his first week of "real" school. (brick and mortar this fall at the Montessori School of Camden). Hope they won't mind!!

As usual, creative financing will be necessary, so any ideas (or donations!) will be much appreciated!!!

I will post more as our plans develop!
