Sorry I have not posted in ages!!  Really been on the move.. since my last post in Yellowstone, I then rode up into Canada, through Calgary, Banff, Jasper, up to the Yukon as far as the Arctic Circle!  Then west to Alaska, with a goal to reach Anchorage, which sort of completed my world “circle”, getting me as close to Magadan Russia as...

Hello from Turkey

Hello from Turkey

Not sure if this will post as I’ve tried to bypass the Turkish government block on eblogger.. which is why no postings in several days! If this text only post comes through (I tried to post my next awaiting update with photos and it did not work), then I am just here to say that I will update my blog again once I reach Bulgaria in a few days.. hopefully! As...

My Life in Florence (Firenze) Italy

Florence gets it’s very own blog post.. It deserves it, a very special place and a highlight for most visitors to this country..  And for me, located only 15 km down the road from where I am staying..it’s where I go to take care of normal daily things, like banking, insurance, shopping, etc.  Not a bad hangout!!!  Florence Duomo I’ve...

Blogging Issues

We have arrived Mirny, a large diamond mining town in Yakutsk..  Really rough roads as usual, and so glad to have a town to rest in!!  AND, as usual, the people in Yakutia are beyond welcoming and hospitable! We did not even make it into town.. but as we were pulling in, a bright blue Subaru pulled us over..  A blonde man jumps out and has...

In the meantime,  I’m having a little better luck with Facebook.. I will keep trying to put little bits on there, and will fill in all the big detail...

Thanks for the Memories!

Quite an eventful week has finally come to an end.  Many memories logged in Sherri Jo’s book! Thank you again to everyone in Perth who supported me, I’m downright flabbergasted!! I thoroughly enjoyed everyone, had some amazing experiences and learned so much… and most of it without my bike, but on others… ! Special thanks to Robert, who...

Today’s Comic

Today’s comic in the Guardian Messenger… just happened to be next to an article about me, but I loved this more!

The comic actually has more meaning to me in reflection of earlier life experiences!  How did “Clive” know??  Gotta love it..

Tribute to Chad and Rod

Chad and Rod, very very VERY HAPPY Peter Stevens boys extraordinaires… caught me up this week that they’ve had a view of my blog.. and noticed I have pictures of Jared, Billy and Graham.. and not them!  Which is a very fair call, as both Chad and Rod have done so much work for my project.  Particularly Chad who really loves selling me all things...

Saturday Paper

Saturday Paper

I was thinking that I’ve never been in the paper before.. But I just remembered there was a time, a loooong time ago. I was in the 4H Club, where you join community groups of interest, and if you progress, you get to advance to the State Fair, much like your Royal Show.  I was in 6th Grade, and my interest was Dog Training.  I had a Bassett Hound...
