rocky mountain high.

im a savvy if disorganized traveler. im usually only really focused on getting it right when i go further than 600 miles of my apartment.

im going further tomorrow, to go ol' colorado. man i love that place. god's country. can't wait to get there and more importantly, join the fray. i'm the 3 generation to attend on my mother's side.

something i was taught very young was to always carry a folder. mom is and grandmother was big on travel folders equipped with maps, phone #s, addresses, back up documentation, all in clear plastic folders with dividers. tabs, label makers involved. back up business cards...but i grew tired post-9/11 they just rip your crap apart. so ill be more dysfunctional than they are. but not this trip. i am so prepared.

in just a few shorts hours this trip ushers in a new era of hope, change and renewal.
not just for me, but the entire nation-whether you want it or not.

so thank you, summer.
