4/9 – This haircut is going to go a long way
Less hair for helmet hair, but actually I think I like it more this way. Thanks, Alayna!...
4/8 – The Roar
Bonus points if you catch the motorcycle movie reference (super bonus points if you caught the previous TV reference). And now, for a more personal expansion on the topic: Some people call it a muse. How cute. Others refer to an inner demon, or more neutrally, ‘my writing partner’. I...
4/4 – Dreaming and Drawing
I finished the last drawings for the book today! Hurray! Except there’s still the issue of making the whole thing colorful, to catch the eyes of little ones and parents. The motivational status bar I keep for myself is happy though (the top row of X’s indicates full color completed...
3/29 – From last week, breaking in scoots for CORSette

3/13 – Dwellings And Doubts
Just sayin’, my bed arrangement is pretty sweet. With this lingering winter cold, it’s all down comforter and flannel linens....
The Plan(s)
It’s snowing outside, and difficult to keep my thoughts from drifting to ride planning. It feels like there are so many moving parts to manage before embarking, but in truth I think I just can’t resist tossing and turning ideas over in my head. Riding across country has been...
