Me: \u201cHoney, do you remember when we were moving from NYC to Colorado and how I wanted us to move to Alaska instead?\u201d
\nWife: \u201cYes, so? This was 10 years ago?..\u201d
\nMe: \u201cWell, we\u2019re buying a camper and leaving to South America for 2 years. And we\u2019re taking your mother to help with the kids.\u201d
\nWife: \u201cYou\u2019re joking!?!\u201d
\nMe: \u201cYes, but only about your mother.\u201d
\nWife: \u201cHow does that have anything to do with Colorado and\u2026 awww, forget it! You\u2019re an idiot.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Step 3: Make an informed decision<\/h2>\n
So it was decided. A grand road trip spanning 2 grand continents (unless you\u2019ve been educated in Burundi, where the Americas count as one continent*) over the course of 2 years. Kids included, mother-in-law excluded, in the snug comfort of a truck camper. The plan was plain, succinct and reasonable, I think.<\/p>\n
Step 4: Plan carefully![\"Decision-Making\"](\"http:\/\/www.rustycamper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decision-Making.jpg\")
<\/h2>\n
Having the decision out-of-the-way, it was time for more practical matters. For one should know there is a myriad of details surrounding the intricacies of such an undertaking. Naturally, people such as Chris already know that, but things were not so clear for us. For instance, how would we, in our soon-to-be camper truck, cross the Panama Canal, which as everyone but students in Burundi knows, cuts across the Isthmus of Panama, separating the Americas into two distinct continents? Or what to pack for 2 years. But that\u2019s another story.<\/p>\n
