About Me

My photo
My human, Mia, has been working so hard. She is so inspired by my plan. My plan is to go all over the United States meeting new and wonderful people, to share their stories, and to find the connection between all people. Mia is so wonderful, and I want to meet more wonderful humans like her.

Alaska

Mia got an offer yesterday to go to Alaska.  However I've crunched the numbers, we just can't afford it currently. We'd need another $300 to make it possible.

 I appreciate people's generosity and wanting to add to my adventures. This morning I was scrapping the idea of Alaska, for now, but then I thought... May be my followers would like to send me to Alaska.

If you are interested in seeing this happen I need donations by Monday.  Even 20 people donating $15 would get me to my goal. So I feel it is very possible to still make it.

If you're interested in seeing Alaska happen please donate HERE

Thank you for your support. 

Whether we go to Alaska right now or not... Taco adventures will be continuing since we haven't done all of the 48 yet!  So keep following along either way.

Thank you!

Thank you for your support! 
 The month of May has been my biggest month yet! 
I had more visits to my site this month 
then I have any other month of my trip!  
Thank you so much! 
 Keep following along... 
I still have 2 months to go!

quotes - Be yourself

Be Yourself... You are the only you that exists.


“Who we are never changes.  
Who we think we are does.”  ~ Mary Almanac 


“Feet on ground 
heart in hand 
facing forward
be yourself.”  ~ Jan Arden


"Going home means getting comfortable being who you are and who your soul really wants to be.  There is no strain with that.  The strain and tension come when we're not being who our soul wants to be and we're someplace where our soul doesn't feel at home." ~ Melody Beattie 


"To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly. ~ Henri Bergson 


"The easiest thing in the world to be is you.  The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be.  Don't let them put you in that position." ~ Leo Buscaglia 


"The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.”  ~ Joseph Campbell 


"Every human being is intended to have a character of his own; to be what no other is, and to do what no other can do."  ~ William Channing


"Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.  Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power." ~ Tao Te Ching 


"Who you really are, your True Nature, is no more tied to the kind of person you've been than the wind is tied to the skies through which it moves.  Your past is just that, the past, a place within your psyche with no more reality to it than a picture of a castle on a postcard is made from stone.  You have a destination far beyond where you find yourself standing today." ~ Guy Finley 


"At the center of your being you have the answer.  You know who you are and you know what you want." ~ Lao-tzu


"Find your true path.  It's so easy to become someone we don't want to be, without even realizing it's happening.  We are created by the choices we make every day.  And if we take action in order to please some authority figure, we'll suddenly wake up down the road and say, 'This isn't me.  I never wanted to be this person.'" ~ Bernie Siegel, MD

Reservoir

On Mother's Day we went for walk at a  reservoir in Colorado. These are the sites we saw that day.  I know I haven't written much these past few days.  I feel like words would be wasted with such amazing things to just look at. How can I add to the splendor that is nature? I can not. So enjoy.

Mother's day walk.

Wyoming

I ran up to Wyoming for a quick day trip from Fort Collins, CO.  
Little did I think I'd hit a blizzard and roads would be shut down.
 In Fort Collins and surrounding areas it looked nothing like this! 
So much for Wyoming on this day.

Couldn't go even one foot further.



This was south... so just a light dusty snow.
