WE FINALLY MADE IT TO NORTH CAROLINA!
Christopher here. I’ve finally lifted my head out of the liquid display of the editing screen to catch my breath for a moment. And do know what I discovered? Life. I’m giving Maya a break from writing tonight to share something that we’re just starting to figure out. Goals are important. Deadlines are important. Passion, ambition, and hard work are all very important. However, none so much as living the life we’re working so damn hard for. What’s the point of achievement if we don’t take the time to... well, take our time.
Yes, the truck delayed us a month from beginning the project. Yes we were stuck in NY due to the lack of care from our mechanic who tore a gash across the side of our camper and just plain gave us the runaround for weeks. Yes, our 3 day trip to Staunton, Virginia, turned into 3 weeks. But fuck it, today we picked fresh shiitake mushrooms at Sharonview farm in North Carolina, I’m about to smoke my pipe and drink whiskey (Maya’s drinking tea) and we’re cuddled under the stars.
If you’ve followed our journey on YouTube, it’s not hard to see those are mere drops in a sea of awesome.
We love you,
Christopher, Maya, and Jackson. @Sharonview Farm
