No More Camping for A While, Here's Why

Life is about to change in a big way.

This summer, instead of heading out on another camping trip, I’m doing something different, I’m getting ready to welcome someone new into my life.

In today’s video, I’m not going camping… I’m preparing. Cleaning out the van, setting up a tiny bed, and reflecting on what’s ending and what’s just beginning. If you’ve ever felt the quiet tension of a life shift, you’ll get it.

This is the calm before the puppy.
