I published my first blog post seven years ago in December of 2017. I started blogging after I escaped from the work force, mainly to document our travels - especially our extended cross-country National Parks trips with our kids. Plus, I enjoyed creative writing and wanted to do more of it than just produce our annual Christmas newsletter. And, I was hoping to connect with like-minded adventurers who enjoyed travel and the camping lifestyle as much as Alan and I did.
What has truly amazed me is the number of friendships that have developed during these past seven years. Connections I expected; ongoing friendships, I did not, but it is with a whole lot of gratitude that I view these relationships. Many of my connections and friendships are with fellow bloggers; a few are with wonderful people Alan and I have met in our travels. Today’s post is a story of a friendship that came about strictly due to happenstance and coincidence. And it’s a “dam” fine story.
