Happiness on the road can be a lot of different things, although the general theme  revolves around the people you meet. The following is a list of things that made me happy last year. There is no particular order and the punctuation and grammar are just what they are. Check the gallery at the bottom for an assortment of pictures trying to represent some of the many things that have made me happy while traveling.

• Seeing beautiful sunsets and sunrises, more of the former since I tend to sleep in
• Meeting Lynn, Cecil & Becky in Florida; Happy Hour around the campfire,
