The Worst Part…
The worst part of telling your story as a survivor would have to be holding the guilt of hurting people you love, regardless of what they have done to you. Knowing there is a cause and effect for everything. Knowing that even standing your ground and shining your light will burn some of the people you once held closest to your heart because they were your mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, sister, brother, cousin, aunt, uncle, husband, wife, in-laws, best friend, boyfr

I’m baaack…
It’s been awhile since I posted. The longest break I’ve had since we started this whole thing. Many thanks to Alice and Kevin for stepping in and giving me the time and energy to get through the garage sale. Since I haven’t posted in a while, a person would think I would have a whole lot to say. Turns out, I do. Fortunately for you though, most of it will have to wait. I’m still sorting out a lot of it as the last 10 days or so have been pretty intense physically, mental

Preparations
As we start to approach the end of summer and start transitioning into fall, you begin to notice things changing. I’m often drawn to watch the wildlife this time of year.

Going through files upon files of my own history, my mother’s history, my family history, history of my family unit and all our trials and tribulations.

Quiet Time
I am unsure what to write about, so I suppose the state I am in is the best place to start. I can feel the season turning, and a type of nesting happening. Naturally. I know I’ll be inside, and there are tons of things to prepare for that couldn’t be done during spring and summer. Those are times for movement. I have made a place for me to settle into and study with Sunny, my S.A.D. lamp. Started some classes, getting some books in line to read. Adapting and changing my routi

Ride Ahead
The 50-state ride is about eight months away at this point. A lot of work has been put into all of it, and work continues to get everything lined up and ready for Alice and Chick to hit the road on May 1, 2027. It has not been an easy path thus far, and there are plenty of obstacles that still lie ahead. Over the course of planning for the bike ride, there have been challenges involving the route, the schedule, farms, stops at other locations, and so on. Each one carries its
