    It all started on October 10th 2011 when my bf and I decided we'd had enough of vegas. By Oct.26th we had sold everything and was headed for the east coast(which is where I'm from). We had a pretty uneventful trip across country...of course I have my mom and two dogs with us. I just drove as much as I could then slept at truck stops along the way. Tennessee was awesome. We almost stayed. My goal was to make it to the ocean:) Finally landed in Va Beach. We camped at a State Park there for 11 days. Wow!! I didn't realize how expensive camping had become. By now we were getting low on cash, so I decided to head up the coast to Maryland to my aunts house.She has a full house, but was kind enough to let us pitch a tent in her back yard. I'm still here! Thank goodness for this pnone:) Not sure what the next step is going to b. I'm definitely glad to be back to nature. I was kinda raised this way as a kid, but the bf on the other hand is not a custom to any of this. I've set up kinda of a make shift kitchen in the tent, we have access to a sink and toilet so were gettin' by:)
