“6 Years & Counting” by N&J
Whistler, BC (Jun 22/20) – Such a challenging start to 2020, living with Covid-19 virus and the ensuing pandemic has been daunting… finally some good news!!! N&J are celebrating their 6th wedding anniversary today!!! Looking back to 2014, it was a beautiful sunny day on Spanish Banks along English Bay in Vancouver. The water sparkling, a gentle breeze, boats dotting the marine landscape, the wedding ceremony laid out on the lawn by the beach… seems only like yesterday. Today also marks the 7th year to the day that N&J met for the first time at a Westfalia meet-up camp in Salmon Arm, BC. Little did they know what the future…

“We Are the Eggman!” by N&J
Eugene, OR (aug 22/13) – The reality of this journey is taking shape as N&J head off into the unknown, curiosity and excitement keeps the focus on the road ahead. The I-5 to Eugene is pretty uneventful other than the dusty billowing clouds emanating from the busy farmers bringing in their crops. Upon seeing this N&J look at each other in astonishment realizing that they will be living in those dust clouds once on the playa at Burning Man (BM)… “What have they done”?! A good laugh about this and they carry on. The day getting sticky and hot, N&J find a private spot along the Willamette River to take a…
