How do you plan the perfect road trip?
Writing this from a road trip seems the ideal location to ponder perfection.
In many respects this will be an anti-perfection ponder. A road trip needs just enough planning to provide a scaffold of ideas that serendipity can build upon. I realise that many people need certainty but we are not those people.
This was the sunset last night at a location we had not expected to visit this year. The Ice Saints brought inclement weather so we headed further south a little earlier than anticipated.
Before this road trip I was unaware of Ice Saints. More on them below.
My rural childhood had a clothing/weather saying.
” Ne’re cast a clout, ’til May is out”
Don’t get rid of any clothing layers until June.
Last night in a moment of folklore defiance I gave up my socks for camping sleeping. Nothing bad happened.
And that is why perfection on a road trip is not about planning but a lot about Serendipity.
