Alex Croft – A Journey of Independence
Manage episode 433303062 series 2898855
In this episode of “The Journey of My Mother’s Son” podcast, I sit down and talk to my grandson, Alex Croft.
This is the second time that I have had Alex on my podcast. The first was two years ago between his Junior and Senior year of high school. The first episode, we recorded in his backyard in Pennsylvania. This episode, we recorded in our RV while we were staying in Homer, Alaska.
Back in May, Alex, with just his 7-month-old Jack Russell mix puppy, Cooper, by his side, embarked on a journey of independence. They drove from Myerstown, Pennsylvania to Great Falls, Montana to meet our group that was traveling throughout Alaska and Canada this summer.
Alex, even though he never met my mother because she passed away just a few months before he was born, travels much more like her than we do. He converted his Jeep Cherokee into a car camper. He has 30-amp electric service, a cook top, and a cooler for food. He truly is following in that old Plymouth Valient, Polly’s footsteps.
We talk about what he has learned and how he has grown on this journey.
