Northfield, New Jersey

June 8–9, 2022

I paid a second visit to my almost 92-year-old grandmother near the end of the trip, making “Grandmom visits” the bookends to the whole adventure. My father also happened to be passing through the area, so he stopped in to see his former mother-in-law and play some piano duets with her. I sang a few jazz standards with them and got to do my closest impersonation of the Jitterbug with my grandmother too. (Spoiler: it’s not that close.) 

My grandmother lives with my Aunt Joanne, but another of my mom’s sisters, Kathie, flew up late Wednesday night, rounding out the trip to include visits with each one of my mom’s siblings. Have you ever seen anyone cuter than my grandmother in those photos of Kathie, Grandmom, and me? I have the most adorable grandmother of all time.

About Me

I’m a graphic designer, musician, and editor whose job went remote in March 2020. In mid-2021, I sold my house, bought a camper, and decided to hit the road with my two dogs. My homebase is Vermont, and I’ll return eventually, but for now I’m going mobile.
About My Camper

For the first few months of my trip, I was driving Pierogi, a 2014 Toyota Tacoma, and pulling Donna, a 2021 Sun-Lite Classic 16BH camper. Partway through the trip, though, I realized I love this life and wanted to up my game, so I traded in my sweet little setup for a 2022 Thor Sequence camper van, Vincent Van Go(gh). Less in the way of vintage charm, but he rides sooooo fine.
