Gypsies

We've adopted Willie Nelson's familiar melody "On The Road Again" as our traveling song.  It captures our hankering to hit the road when temps dip, the sun disappears and snow starts to fly in Iowa. The holidays wind down and there's nothing but blizzards and subzero months ahead, we are drawn to clear blue Southwestern skies or the warm, welcoming waters of Florida's Emerald coast.  Time to hit the road for snowbird paradise.

We recalled chatting with friendly folks at a local beverage stop during one of our journeys.  They asked about our travels and we talked a while about being on the road, told a few tales and some true ones too.   They must have been impressed by our stories because they said we were nothing but a couple of traveling Gypsies.  Maybe we do have some Gypsy blood running through these tired old veins.  Heck, Paul even stockpiles the magic Gypsy elixir, Busch Light.

We weren't looking for a theme song, but sometimes things just happen and what do you know, now we have one.

Yeah, Willie must be singing about us.
