A wandering wind...

Well, It finally happened. A mysterious wind blowing from the east and a distinct restlessness. No, it isn't what you are thinking. Mary Poppins did not arrive on the doorstep umbrella in hand, though she would have been welcome. It is that time of year when we get an itch to wander...so off we go. Though, wandering has clearly become more difficult as our family has expanded, we still manage. A twelve passenger van and a dozen well packed bags and off we go. Our four tortoise shell cats waved us out of the driveway and I assume did a bit of a happy dance to be left with our brilliant Neighbor Sasha. She has fifteen cats and our cats always seem a bit disappointed upon our return that they are no longer in her care. A drip system on a timer keep the beautiful vegetable garden alive and thriving and make a great boon for Sasha and Bob her husband. ( and the slugs, who are really happy to see the backside of us.)
How long will this wanderlust continue, you ask? I don't know, but if you continue to check back in on us you will know when we do. As for now, the sun has just come up over the Atchafalaya bayou and the promise of adventure lies ahead.
