It’s been awhile since I posted about my travels. I’ve done a lot! I’ve been worried about Pugsly for a little while, so my motivation to post has been low. Honestly, I’m not much in a storytelling mode. I miss my Pugsly and am sad and tired. When I left Tuweep (North Rim Grand Canyon) last week, I knew I needed to get back to Pugsly’s vet and friends. I headed back to Prescott, Arizona, which is where I am…
It’s raining right now. Fitting for how I’m feeling. The heavens cry along with me with the loss of my wonderful companion, Pugsly. I have few words now. I didn’t know it was possible to love a wee creature so much. Four years ago, she walked lost down my street and found me.

Open arms, horsies, rock clambering, good food, Argos romping… easy to get stuck here. You see, Richard is the kind of guy who has a big heart and loves company.

Over the past few months I’ve done pretty good adhering to that rule. It makes for much more relaxed driving, no ‘road buzz’ when you arrive, and allows for real downtime…
(Osceola National Forest, Florida. Hog Pen Campground, on Ocean Pond) There is a quote that is usually attributed to Ben Franklin that most of us have heard in context of political discussion, “those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither.” The other day I was driving along thinking about the prospect of getting a jobby job vs continuing on the road. I need to have income within a month or two or I’ll…
Hot Rod Pug! Videos of Pugsly in her new wheelchair that my friend Brandon made for her when I was visiting in Bluffton, South Carolina last week! A series of five or so short vids. 🙂 She can still gimp around, but this helps her go for distance and frees her up to go faster! Whee!
