Don't let the broken toe stop you on the way out!

Our last day north of the boarder was uneventful.  The house we were staying at was cleaned and back in order.  (Thanks Toews family!)  The truck we are storing for the year, with family, had updated plates and was delivered.  Maddi and Zac had spent the last few days with Tata & Grandpa getting the essentials; new shirts, underwear and piercings.  All signs pointed to an easy exit.
Then, the basket!
The basket, which I placed down and promptly proceeded to walk into.  Breaking my middle toe on my right foot.
Reality hit, leaving and traveling takes you to a new place of vulnerability; waking up in a new town each day.  Opting to stay at service stations, rest stops, or boondock at the side of the road.  Missing the consistency of a "fixed" address, a permanent parking spot and all the other usuals that we are told make a home.  The chores of daily life are replaced with a new set.  And living a little more free takes over easier than expected.

The broken toe has not made us lose our stride.  We are on our way.  A year of where the North Wind leads us...funny, though, how the wind speaks to us in guitars, cymbals and amps, but more on that later.  The open road calls.

In the last week we have visited the Corning Museum of Glass, spent hours at Midtown Scholar (the largest used/rare/new bookstore between New York and Chicago),  walked all the banks of the Susquehanna River,  toured The Hershey Factory!
