Fellow Travelers

The term "Fellow Travelers" was an old code phrase for what once was considered communist conspirators.  However, as move about people we have a lot of good friends that are fellow travelers. One nice thing about the life of movement is the people always change. In fact if you get tired of your neighbors in this game, you just start the engine and you are gone.  This is rarely a problem, in fact right now people seem to be gathering here from all over.  People we have met over the years are all showing up in the next few weeks.

Somehow there is a strange commonality.  Just about everyone we engage as good friends bikes, sails, hikes, and loves the outdoors.  Seems like a lot of them are birders. Why more people do not get unglued from the Television and enjoy the magnificent country we live in is a mystery.  Fox News must have them terrified. The Commander and Kadizzle have been living the mobile life for 17 years.  Never have we had a serious problem out in the wild.  It seems the craziest people stay close to town.  Town is what is making them crazy.  You will eventually have the pleasure of sitting in a nursing home watching all the Fox News you want, so why not put it off until then.  Most of the very best places you can only get to on foot. That is a good thing.  Remember the old movie line when a guy got scared? He would say " feet do your thing".  The thing was run. If your feet don't work, they cannot do their thing. Keep your feet in shape, walk.
