My name is Pam and while I named the blog "Grannysstateofmind", this site is about my husband, Jesse, and I. We bought a Class C motorhome in February, 2022. The next month Jesse went into "Semi Retirement" from long haul truck driving. I used quotes because it was supposed to be full retirement, but our current economy doesn't allow for that just yet, (also couldn't resist the pun).
The good news is, we're not needed at home much any more. The bad news is, we're not needed much anymore. Now we get to find new things to do. We will learn to be a couple on our own. When we first married I already had the five kids. Just a few years later Jesse started driving truck and I stayed home to finish raising the kids. Thirty plus years later we are empty nesters. With our motorhome we will explore the country we both love so much. I look forward to all the different festivals this nation has to offer and the people who celebrate them. Jesse looks forward to showing me all the places he's seen from the freeway. Along the way we will keep up with current events and see how the people we meet are effected. We'll also share some of our newbie mistakes, successes, and fixes.
I love to crochet, write, and cook. I hope to find lots of roadside stands and growers markets so we can always enjoy the local fare. I might even try my hand at container gardening on the road. Jesse loves to read almost any genre and he can spend hours in your local museums. I might even get him to bust out the leather kit and start making gifts for the family.
It is my hope that this platform will give us all the opportunity to share the thing that affect our state of mind and perhaps even improve them. Please make comments and share your stories, and if you see us out on the road give us a shout or a honk.
Good start
