Teardrop Trailer Burial*

I apologize again for the lack of posting lately. I had a death in the family and have been taking care of everything that goes along with that. I've had a few days to think about about both life and death and have a totally different view on how to live and what to live for.

The person who passed never really got to live the life they wanted, and I want to make sure that doesn't happen to me. The favorite times in my life are the days spent camping, traveling and being with friends and family, and I intend to make sure that continues as long as possible. Live life today and do it your way.

*The photo above is not meant to be morbid, but if I wasn't being cremated, I wouldn't mind leaving this world inside a stylish, black teardrop towed by a hearse.

Live Life Now

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

"It's My Life" by Bon Jovi

When driving down the road, I crank this song up and sing along at the top of my lungs. It really appeals to things that are going on in my life right now, but it can also apply to teardrop camping. Teardrop trailers and camping are a wonderful way to see the country or just your own backyard, and we've had accessibility to more areas around the Western U.S. with our teardrop trailer than from staying in a hotel. However, you don't need to wait around to buy or build your own teardrop trailer to go exploring and see the world. Rent a trailer, or even just a cool-looking van, or gather up some airline miles and take off for Tokyo or Timbuktu.

Don't wait to live your life. You only get one.
