Natters of a Nomad
I grew up on a small farm near Asheville, North Carolina. Adventure was the farthest thing from my mind. My one ambition was to attend Blanton's Business College in Asheville and then live and work there. I did that for several years.
Then I met Jim Ellis, forester and active-duty Navy reservist. Life changed dramatically. His professional organization met annually in a different region of the United States or Canada, and we vacationed in the area. The Navy sent us various places for two weeks' active duty, so we traveled by car over most of the United States and Canada for 34 years. Travel for fun began in retirement.My column, Natters of a Nomad, appeared in the ezine and print RPG Digest from August 2018 through December 2019. These stories, some serious, some silly bits of nonsense contained some of the travels Jim and I experienced during the first fifteen years of our retirement.
