Ever since I read of the Intemann Trail last spring I have been wanting to complete the entire stretch of that trail between Manitou Springs and Cheyenne Canyon. The journey began last August when I used the part of the trail to get from Red Rock Canyon to downtown Manitou in order to pick up … Continue reading Small Accomplishment

Excellent post!
Winter 2016
Winter is flying by and spring is nearly upon us! The holiday weeks passed by so excruciatingly slowly that I was dreading the "dead of winter" weeks and months with their extreme cold and long boring hours of darkness. But thankfully it has been an eventful and rewarding two months, starting with a discussion with … Continue reading Winter 2016
Happy New Year 2016
Looking ahead is always good, new plans and dreams require planning and optimism and you can't go wrong with these traits and activities. However, sometimes there is much to be gained by looking back as well. There are lessons learned, failures to digest, victories to build upon, accomplishments to relish and seemingly insurmountable obstacles overcome. … Continue reading Happy New Year 2016

I've been turning down writing jobs right and left these days... At first they sound good, write your favorite material from home and make money! So you apply and then find out you are going to get $5 per article and you are expected to write five articles a day. I'm like, no you don't … Continue reading Concept

One of my major photography goals for the summer was to … Continue reading Coincidence
Alone
Alone is a funny thing, it isn't always the same. I've never had a problem with being alone, I'm at peace with myself and it is what it is. With that type of alone you can just head out into the woods and experience the comfort of nature, or you can head across the street … Continue reading Alone
Change Afoot
Well, here I am, up again at 4:00 a.m. unable to sleep for all the thoughts swirling through my mind. I am thinking this entire phase of my life is coming to and end and something completely new is afoot. I had not planned to spend another winter in this town. When Tricia passed last … Continue reading Change Afoot
Healing is Painful
An update on Rachel’s journey to healing!
It was around this time last year that I started intensive treatment for Lyme disease. I had to travel to a medical center in another city, a few hours away from my home, and stay there for a month. I knew that the treatment might make me sicker before it made me better and I was willing to do whatever it took to get better!!! Little did I know just how painful the treatment would be. Sometimes in life healing isn’t all warm and fuzzy. I’m not just referring to physical healing but also to emotional, mental, and spiritual healing. Sometimes healing is painful! Even when the process of healing is painful it is totally worth it when we finally come out of it healed.
In my case, the Lyme disease had gotten so bad I was unable to control my hands or my legs. I had to be…
