No Fixed Abode

In law, "No Fixed Abode" means not having a fixed geographical location as a residence.  Applies to several groups -- nomadic peoples, sailors, those electing a mobile lifestyle, and individuals considered to be homeless for a variety of reasons.

We are moving from San Mateo, California to Venice, Florida.  Selling our house in San Mateo in late March, and purchasing a new place in Venice in mid-April.  So for a few weeks, we will qualify as No Fixed Abode.  While "footloose" is primarily a state of mind, having No Fixed Abode certainly contributes!

While NFA, we'll spend our days driving cross country.  Considered a variety of routes before settling on one.  It didn't have to be the shortest route -- we have plenty of time.  Didn't have to be the most southern route -- we should hopefully be getting some Spring weather by then.  But shouldn't be a very northern route -- there could still be some leftover Winter weather in the north.  So we decided on an easy route with no super long days of driving and including lots of good stuff -- visits with friends, hiking in parks, soaking in geothermal hot springs, classic Route 66 sights, interesting museums.  We think of this as the Nice Tour Route.
