amazing traveler





the minute i saw her, i wanted her picture - but felt so bad about taking it. i actually had dominic turn around & we parked in a parking lot waiting for her to ride by us, so i could snap a few. as you can see - they aren't the best, as i was playing a bad game of incognito.
so what is her deal? is she happy or is she sad? she had the biggest smile on her face ... & her dogs are so good - one walking right by her side & her old yellow sitting ontop of her trailer 'o stuff. have you ever seen anyone have so much stuff while riding a bicycle? - really quite amazing that she could even manage to tow it.

i saw her close to a month ago ... & i think of her quite often still. i've never seen anything like that - she literally had so much stuff with her, all this clothes hanging out everywhere - everything that she owned i'm sure. did she lose her house? forclosure? fire? divorce? .... is she ok now - it is so cold out? is this by choice? walk-about of sorts? it's taken me a while to post this one, cuz i almost feel bad doing it. but, as i said - if you could of seen the smile she had on her face riding down tenny mt. highway ... i think she was happy & feeling free. i hope so.

quotes of the day

drum roll please ... it is only noon, but i am feeling pretty safe with posting my " " 's of the day so early.

the best "quote" of the day so far ....

"religion is a smile on a dog" - edie brikell

worst "quote" so far ...

"can you believe obama picked that muslim to run everything" - nh republican (obviously) citizen.


i could probably go into some lengthy comments about both of these ... but, i don't have the time & more importantly - no preaching from me today. so, who knows, i could have better ones by tonight ... i will be heading out into public one more time today ... ????

an old find

took a minute this morning, in the midst of my early morning work schedule to look at an old sketchbook that caught my eye ... this is something that i found ... so surprised to find this amongst drawings ... remembering that i actually used to write for the fun of it way back when ... here you go

understand what? ...
understand others trying to tell you how to be...
be strong! be smart!
strong how?
strong to make yourself hurt ...
strong to not make yourself feel truth ...
smart about what?
smart enough to make your socks match just cause they're supposed to...
smart to brush your teeth ... your hair... your toes, just cuz smart people keep themselves clean?
foolish!
how about brushing the stars ... try to ... at least you are looking at them.
can't see them? paint them!
be strong enough to lift the moon ... or at least strong enough to draw it.
O - look a circle, a moon ... see many can be strong!
stars & moons your typical story ... of course i'm being typical.
although, i have to say i'm not always ... catch me on my mushroom & frog day ...
it will be a fairytale!!

the end :)
