There’s the sky, here’s the earth Thank God for the road We are in the midst of an unplanned stop at home, hoping RV repairs go fast so we can be winging toward California. One thing we learned quickly is that when this adventure ends in August we’ll need to do some serious adjusting.

\nThis is the road for all it’s worth
\nIt’s a ribbon, it’s a river, it’s a wave
\nIt’s an arrow and it’s a snake
\nIt’s asleep and it’s awake
\nAnd it stretches from the cradle to the grave<\/p>\n
\nAnd the stars that shine above it
\nNo matter what you once thought of it
\nYou always knew you’d come to love it<\/em><\/p>\n
