Finding Beauty~

4

Lately it feels like I am not sure if I am coming or going..

I am a type “A” personality and I like everything to be all planned out and organized.. that is how I feel the best..

My husband on the other hand, by complete spontanaity.. so we balance each other out quite well..

Today is our children’s last day of school.. and in a week or so we will be striking out on an adventure to South Texas.

(as soon as the Subaru with the blown engine gets repaired, etc) .

I have “arranged” pasture for our horses, and a man to house sit and watch our animals while we are gone.. but the rest of this little adventure is just

“up in the air” … but strangely.. I am ok with that.. I will be stepping totally out of my element, and away from my mountains..

I have had many people panic when they find out we live here and we see grizzly bear, and wolves and mountain lions..

I just laugh and tell them that I am much more comfortable here than I would be in the city! I was raised in the wilds, for me the mountains mean home.

Anyhow.. we will be spending time in towns that have more people living in them, than there are people in our whole state…

So I am on a mission.. (rather than panic, and hide) I have decided to use this trip as a way to show people, that there is beauty and nature.. no matter where you go in this world..

(“IF” I don’t melt like a chocolate bar from the heat and humidity…:-)

Not sure yet if how much time I will have online~ just going to wing it.. and go with the flow.. but when I have time, and internet access.. I will share with you Natures beauty that I find along the way..

Sea turtles, and sharks, and wild hogs, and armadillo’s (armadillo? sp) and all the other wonderful (and not so wonderful) creatures we find on our journey, that we would not be able to experience here..

    You will have a great time Stacey. Our country is beautiful! You will see much nature and beauty along your path to TX. There is a plethora of flora and fauna, even in the deserts. And it has been a good year, lots of rain, you should see wildflowers and cactus in bloom. Quests are always fun … you are on the right track, for making your trip enjoyable. We’ll be watching for the photos! :D

    Just fly by the seat of your pants. Let your hair down and have fun. Love being together, and Laugh as much as possible. Live in the moment. This will be one of life’s journeys that will be over before you know it. Your boys will have so much fun exploring. Be safe and have fun.
