You sound happy, and that makes me happy!!!!

Thanks for taking the time to give us a little more insight into what you are doing and how you are doing it!!!!!

Good for you and Terry, Debbie! You two have obviously been very careful in your spending and saving over the years, something that all of us could learn a lesson from!!!

How do you pronounce "Quartzite"? It is not a name I have heard.

**Randi** · 10-31-2006, 12:10 PM

Debbie, thanks for keeping us updated. It sounds like a fantastic journey you've begun, and I can tell that you're happy.

Wherever you go, it will be different, so you won't get bored.

Your job plans sound great too. I just hope you won't get too busy to keep us updated.

Looking forward to hear more next time.

All the best of luck!!

I'll jump in here and answer since I'm from AZ!!

It is pronounced: Quart - Site, the spelling throws everyone off, but then again here in AZ we like to do that on a lot of our cities!! We have a place called Canyon De Shay - ok, that is the way its pronounced, but the spelling

I haven't the foggiest on how to begin to spell it! I will look for it and type it out for you - you will see, we are crazy!! (actually these are a lot of American Indian names)

Oh what a shame! I was hoping it would be much more exotic than that!

Thank you very much.

Especially when the schpelling is mostly wrong!

Popular version is "Quartzite" --- leaving out an important "S" ...

The TOWN spells it Quartzsite ...

...........thanks for pointing that out! Never even noticed!!!........ Oh I am so embarrased!!!!

**Tubby & Peanut's Mom** · 11-04-2006, 05:50 PM

Well, I start training on Monday. Gotta be there at 8:00 am....and probably work until 5:00 pm - ugh! Now that I'm facing the reality of another job, I'm wondering what in the world I was thinking by wanting one!

The good news is the commute is all of a short bicycle ride - think I can handle that!

I train for two weeks, then we have the week of Thanksgiving off, then we head to Quartzsite. (I never knew the s was missing either

).

**Killearn Kitties** · 11-04-2006, 06:15 PM

Well no wonder I was having so much difficulty pronouncing that name!

Thanks for helping me out, everybody!

Good luck on Monday, Debbie!

Hey, now, I was 45 when I "retired". Of course, I retired because I was disabled. But if you can get past the constant pain, it's not that bad.
Glad you are happy!!!

**cyber-sibes** · 11-04-2006, 07:07 PM

OHHHH, YOUR POST IS GIVING ME "WANDERLUST"! I've always thought it would be great just to go from place to place without having to pack up, sell the house, & resettle each time..I'm jealous!

Sounds like the perfect situation to "retire" to! Will look forward to more of your adventures along the road. Who knows?

Maybe you'll show up at the spring gathering in Findlay again? (plants seed)

Hmmmm, Sounds like a couple of junkies 'deaing' to support their habit....
