Handpicked (by moi) wild huckleberries from Montana. I see scones and jam in the very near future.
This little peanut-popper has been pestering me for the last 8 days straight…perhaps I should stop feeding him.
Another glorious day at the lake.
My boy lost his ball, again.
It is 3:30 on a Tuesday. The closest place with internet access is the bar around the corner, a 100 yards from the lake. There are no complaints from this girl.

Last remaining items before I can blow this popsicle stand. The feelings of guilt about no longer being a “productive” member of society are slowly starting to fade. With a little luck, two weeks of no tv or cell service in the boonies of Idaho will cement the transition.
…in the worst economy since the great depression. Not one of my more sensible decisions to date. Twenty-six years of honor rolls, steady paychecks and lunch meetings on indefinite hold. For what?

Elspeth Beard is one of a select band of bold women to ride a motorcycle around the world…
By the time she got back to her native London Elspeth had been away for three years and added 48,000 miles to her R60’s odometer, so it now read 88,000. She stripped and completely rebuilt the engine herself and still has the bike in running order today.
Of all that’s been called ‘Alberto’s Legacy,’ the gift with the most profound impact on me is the maxim he lived by.
Do the thing you are most dreading. And do it now…
As in, don’t procrastinate or bury your head in the sand about your finances, deadlines, promises or goals.
Write To-Do Lists often.
Complete them swiftly.
As a result, the man lived fearlessly. Presently…

Data -
…doesn’t change behavior. If it did, Apple would be advertising the iPhone to us with stats about how the iPhone increases our productivity by 22% and our love life by 34%.
Inspiration changes behavior…
They don’t use numbers. They use inspiration…
