Having brain cancer has had a wonderful way of changing my perspective on just about everything, including turning 50 today.  When I turned 30 I was sad to be getting older.  Today, I have no wish to be young again.  I harbor little nostalgia for years gone by.  I have only immense gratitude for this […] The post Big 50! appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

A few nights ago, we stayed with our college friend, Grace Han McMahon, and her wonderful husband, Ted, in their home just outside of San Francisco.  We reconnected with Grace a couple years ago in an incredibly small-world moment: Marshall ran into Grace when they both were walking down the hallway of Marshall’s mother’s retirement […] The post A San Francisco Moment appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

I am behind in posting about the stops on our trip. To be completely candid, I just can’t keep up. The trip has been fantastic – we have seen and done so many things together as a family – but it’s also been physically challenging for me. I haven’t made things any easier by going […] The post Behind… appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

Two days ago, we drove from Little Rock, Arkansas, all the way through Oklahoma (or, as I’ve constantly been quoting Steve Martin from the movie Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, “Oklahoma! Oklahoma! Oklahoma!”) to our overnight stop outside the Cactus Inn Motel in McLean, TX on iconic Route 66. (We do get our kicks, yes?) The day […] The post A Tribute to Barbed Wire appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

Saturday, after we left the Kindness Farm, we toured the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. We are not big country music people, but we loved the tour anyway. The Grand Ole Opry is an American institution, a real icon. We were late arriving for our tour, so a nice guard at the Opry caught us […] The post Nashville to Memphis appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

The last 24 hours have been WONDERFUL! We got to Cassandra’s farm at 11:00pm instead of midnight lar night because we’d changed time zones without realizing it! We were immediately greeted by Anna, Chris, and Denise, who led us to a flat, grassy field behind the barn, which was lit up by a string of […] The post The Kindness Farm appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

Well, I’m afraid we didn’t make it out of the driveway yesterday. We got the van back from the shop at 2:30 and proceeded to pack it up until 11:30 at night! There was just too much that had to be done before we could leave, including hydrating compost material for our onboard Nature’s Head […] The post Delayed a Day – But on Our Way Now! appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more

First Day – A Delay… So, we were planning to get the van back from the shop – yes, the shop – this morning and head out before noon. It is almost 2:00 now. How did this happen? Well, a couple of days ago I had the bright – albeit belated – idea to have […] The post First Day – A Delay appeared first on Fran Cannon Slayton ..read more
