I&#8217;ve had an okay summer this year, but I still love this town and am glad that I have had a chance to know it so well. That said, my feelings about my imminent departure are <a href=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/?p=2482\">completely different from last year<\/a>. In fact, this is the first time I&#8217;m going to leave a place without having my departure panic attack. I didn&#8217;t really get settled in this year and I&#8217;ve stopped thinking of this stop as a destination, as an event with a beginning and an end. It seems that sometime between leaving Campbell River and the last couple of weeks, my RVing life began to find a continuity of its own, with routines that carry over whether I&#8217;m stopped or traveling.<\/p>\n<p>Financially, the summer was a blessing and going back to financial incertitude is going to be tough, but I actually managed to do a solid job of replenishing the coffers. I&#8217;ll do fine for myself well into the fall even if I don&#8217;t find a job in Osoyoos, although I have decided to look for something part-time. I have enough set aside to actually travel back south and I&#8217;m giving myself a full sixteen days to do so. My itinerary is a bit bold and I may chicken out about one section, but I look forward to an even longer period of boondocking while being able to work every night.<\/p>\n<p>My fall plans are slowly coming together. I have decided to fly to Montreal at the beginning of November for a week to see my family, something that will be made possible since I&#8217;ll have a <a href=\"http:\/\/lifeonourark.sicottepress.ca\/\">rig and cat sitter available<\/a> to me. My sister had a baby on September 1st, my first niece, so it will be nice to see her and my two nephews. I&#8217;m pretty sure the youngest one doesn&#8217;t remember me!<\/p>\n<p>Besides that, I have a writing project to complete and I also need to work on things related to that announcement I&#8217;m not yet ready to make. I&#8217;d also like to continue with the renovating and decorating, although I will have to be extremely frugal in all areas of my life so as to stretch my savings as far as possible. I&#8217;m committed to being in Osoyoos until December and have not made plans beyond that.<\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s the latest status update. Nothing too exciting, but things are going to pick up soon. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m leaving Dawson in less than two weeks.
