Good Night, San Diego

Sunset at Chula Vista, right outside our RV bedroom window.

I must say, with a view like this how can you not love this place?

And how can we not love what we do?

My mom asked me, "Are you enjoying yourselves?", concerned about how exhausting it must be for us to be on the road, driving from one place to another. I thought of this photo. It's a simple photo. We go through sunsets 365 times in a year. For most of us we practically see it everyday (I hope). But it's what we see when we look that really makes a difference, so my answer, in a heartbeat, was "Yes!"

We left for Tustin, OC to visit Chris' dad the following morning, en route to our major destination, the Death Valley National Park. But like that sunset, there's so much more than just seeing it, or for this case, getting there. It's about discovering what lies along the journey. Every time we leave a place there's a certain sadness. Once we hit the road, anticipation... then, excitement. It's a cycle we go through, just like 365 days of sunrises and sunsets, but we assure you it's different all the time.

This is why we travel.
