Shadowing The Sierras
Read more: Shadowing The SierrasA lot can happen in a week when you’re on the road. This time, the end came. The end to this chapter at least. I’m technically “off the road” for the winter, arriving near Bisbee, Arizona last night. My most recent post had me not even in California yet. The only thing to do is try for a Cliff Notes…

End of The Island Adventure
Read more: End of The Island AdventureYes, I’m finally off Vancouver Island, poking around British Columbia as the first leaves start to turn yellow. I look back at this year’s trip and can’t really make sense of it. My plans totally changed, multiple times, and yet I did still have a goal that I accomplished. In the wider context though — of trying to define purpose…
