Tapestries and Shadows outside Sharmita's and Daila's Casita

We’re packing up the van as I write, and setting off to NV for a second look at the stellar limestone potential that Joe can’t stop talking, dreaming, and thinking about. The funny part is we have a comfy place to stay. We’re renting a room with a few friends here in Ivins right outside of St George, but opting for a few nights in the van seems like a no brainer at this point.

Chatty Town

Trying to figure out how to boulder.
I used to define sections of my life with blog posts. Each submit would tidily tie up a trip or stay somewhere. These days we’ve been moving too fast to keep up with blogs, footage, photos or people for that matter. While my content for blogs keeps getting greater, the time to organize it, tell about it, and really comprehend it seems to diminish inside each intertwining trip and travel. (more…)
