A Glamorous Life

We lead a glamorous life.
  • Travel to exotic places.  Currently we are touring Alaska, The Last Frontier.  Next week we camp on a beach without utilities.  Again.
  • Sleep in top rated highway rest stops in the middle of nowhere.
  • Eat at exclusive restaurants.  We last dined at the Burger Bus next door.
  • Turn down interviews with Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous magazine, as well as RV Septic Monthly.
  • Kill our own food, grow our own coffee, and make water from wine.

Glamorous.

The "Little People" don't always understand the strain we live under to maintain such an exclusive lifestyle, the way we work to live a life they can envy. 

You know you envy us and we know you at least try to understand.  We do it for you.  And us.  Mostly us.

But sometimes the effort takes everything we have.  Every ounce of strength.  Every last calorie of that Tiramisu Fondu and that Baked Macaroni and Cheese.  All of it.

Then we fall to earth, exhausted, but happy for you.
Now you know.  And you thank us.

You're welcome.
