The moment

A theme of this trip has been an attempt to live in the moment. I have recognized that so often at home, my mind was in the future or the past. It still is a great deal, but with every passing day I am trying to focus more on what is right in front of me. To appreciate where I am, what I see, what I taste rather than take myself into the hopes of my future or the memories of my past.

This video...exemplifies that idea perfectly. Props to Sarah P. for finding this.

Smile, New Zealand

Picture Time.



Brad Groesch, as you have never seen before.






The Emerald lakes...



One of the most beautiful and peaceful places in all the world, probably.



This is Lucy, my sweet ride.
