Marked the boundaries of my property and the southeast corner has a sweeping view of the Petrified Forest National Park. Working on plans for a meditation structure facing the rising sun… and a composting toilet. #workinprogress #Arizona

Hitchhiked 170 miles from Pie Town, NM to where RT 66 passed through Holbrook, AZ in just under four hours. To me that’s impressive when it’s a three+ hour drive without having to wait for people to pick you up. Time to let the snow melt before I jump back on trail. #hitchhiking #wandering

Camping and hiking in some pretty remote places. No cell signal, no people, and you try to grab water when you find it. 170 Mile’s between town’s is more than I’m used to. #CDT #wandering

Walked out of Silver City with 170 miles to the next town. No cell service, no food except the half dozen Mcdouble’s in my pack, but Doc Campbell’s was 40 miles in, my last vestige of civilization. Little did I know how much my life would change while I was away… at a loss for […]
