We as older folk have past through all the phases of camping and are now entering the destination phase. We don't travel as long and as fast as before and can spend an entire day on the road and only go 90 miles or stop and sit (not really sitting) for several days.
What wise and beautiful sentiments! How fortunate are your children and grandchildren! What a beautiful legacy.
Although I can't help but wonder if you've accurately named the new phase you are entering, as it sure sounds from your description that anyone who is content to slow down and savor wherever they are has finally learned to truly appreciate the journey more than the destination.
