In This Dream

I live in a garden. Stare at the sea.

The Rabbit Hole--months ago

Since bringing home our 1976 Avion, Keith and I have fallen down a rabbit hole--questions running through our minds from the moment we wake up to the moment we fall asleep. How do we clean all this nasty mouse poop out of here? What colors do we want to paint the walls? How do we charge our batteries? Can we really afford a composting toilet and solar panels? Where can we purchase biodiesel for our truck? And how much would it cost us to run on WVO in the future?

We hope to boondock/live off the grid for most of the year and it's all a bit overwhelming! Especially since we only have 19 more days to remodel and figure everything out before we have two weeks to pack and then need to be moved out of our house and living in the Avion for K's last month of residency! Phew! We have our work cut out for us!
