The Romance of... Homeless on the Road. OR.
There will be thousands of riders this week converging on Redmond, Oregon. It is the Annual BMW motorcycle riders get together on the fairgrounds, much activity, also for us many Friends we have met and more we have not met. They are coming from all over the Country, some will be here from even further. Everyone has a common denominator, the passion for being on a "motorcycle", mostly two wheels, some as us, three wheels, some with trailers, some will trailer. I have that same passion, however Spirit and I fit in a different category, one I don't even know if there will be another member. We "live" on the road, we are "homeless", it is a different "romance". Not better, not worse, just different as 24/7 the elements dictate much of our doings. The logistics are different, sometimes easier, sometimes more difficult, there is no time element, there is really no destination, there is nothing and yet there is so much more. I sometimes think "what am I really doing?" living this way as both of us "gypsies" of the road. It is the only Lifestyle I can handle, I have known that since the day my decision was made. It turns out the "romance" of it all truly keeps us planted on this forever path with no exit sign.
Be well...
Ara & Spirit

I wish I can live your life. It definitely is a different kind of romance. I can only dream of my life on the road and being homeless, may be after retirement :)
