Home for Stuff Yesterday, I put in a full day organizing our stuff for the estate sale (1/22) and will do so again for some days to come. I know that cleaning up is part of selling a home and preparing for our adventure, but it is most certainly my least favorite part. If you …
Today, I posted some of my new music from my CD, “Create Without Caution” on the blog. I hope you can take a few moments and listen! But…you’ll need to access the web version of the blog, www.bethandscottsadventure.com. If you’re currently on a mobile device, there’s a link at the bottom of the page. While …
Last night, we enjoyed a sumptuous dinner cooked by our friends, Paul and Sandi. It was our pleasure to get out of the house (which looks like a war zone) and partake in some intelligent conversation and plenty of laughs with this wonderful couple. Paul and Sandi are a key part of our support system …

Today we are dropping Steph, Weston and Tex off in Newburgh where they’ll catch a ride to Philadelphia. Once there, the traveling trio will hop a freight train to Florida. Yes, they have a banjo and roll their own cigarettes. As Steph was leaving our house, she walked around the interior for the last time, …

Steph and her traveling pals, Tex and Weston The idea for Beth and I to bop around the country was not invented in a vacuum. I give credit to our youngest daughter, Steph, who has been traveling and farming for four years. I tell everyone I meet that Steph is one of the happiest …
Bradley, Age 13 We’ve been watching a show on Disney called “Man, Woman, Dog” which I recommend to anyone who loves dogs (like me). Brad will be joining us on our adventure. He’s a great traveling companion, always eager to jump into the car and see and smell a new location. If he knew about …
