It’s been over 10 months since I have traveled any great distance. I have written before how sometimes I feel like I am waiting for something to happen. Waiting for my next flight to someplace different. With the Covid-19 virus skimming around the Globe it seems to me the best thing is to stay home and just wait until it’s over. But what about all the people who aren’t? How come they get to keep on going places? Seeing new things, experiencing new places. I even thought perhaps that I’d contracted the virus and had myself tested (it was negative). I kept home for 14 days, isolating myself, staying away from even my close neighbors.

At first I was really sick, so didn’t care, but then after a week started to feel better. I got the phone call from the Health Department saying my test was negative! Phew! But I was reminded I still needed to isolate. Seriously!? What’s happened to all the kids who can’t go to school because of a positive virus case? How do they deal with all of this? I have felt many times like my oldest child, who was always wondering what he was missing out on. It’s not the Social dilemma that I am talking about. You know, those people who are scanning the Social media for things that they feel like they are missing out on. They aren’t having as much fun, making as much money, being with the right people, etc. That is just fake news. I am talking about all of the cars, RV’s, and Camper Vans out on the road zooming past at breakneck pace! Where are you all going? Why aren’t you staying home? Why do you have the freedom to travel?

Maybe most of you are saying you are staying home! You have been isolating! You are sick of it too! I am sure I am not the only one feeling like this.

Dream now, Travel later………
