I had to store away most of my belongings and leave behind some things I very much love, like my cigar humidor and my collection of crafts from around the world.
Upon stepping down the porch, I felt the urge to do something seemingly irrelevant and futile; I wanted to make sure El Capitan is really mine. I wanted to make sure it looked like me. So I decorated it. El Capitan got Flintified :)
For your viewing pleasure :
This is how El Capitan looks as of this morning. No more step boards, no roof racks, no frills. |
Every vehicle I own gets plastered with stickers. It makes them unique and homey. |
I could not have left home without my Caballo Blanco front plate and my Sweeney shovel. Also of note; a sea turtle tattoo for the hood :) |
When I was done, I realized that this was an important step for me. It's a statement. This means my home is everywhere. This means I am actively living the life I envision for myself.
This means I'm free.
Awesome, so jealous...looking forward to following your many adventures! Great luck! Lorraine.
