The Open Road: a learning community

Afoot and lighthearted, I take to the open road...
Henceforth, I ask not good fortune,
I myself am good fortune.
--Walt Whitman

What I Like:

Simple Pleasures:
Picking peonies in the spring and Sweet peas in the summer and giving them to friends and family.
Getting up at 4am to watch the moon travel over the mountain.
Going out to Two Rivers Correctional Institution whenever I can to lead a writing/discussion group.
Burrowing my nose in my dog’s sweet fur.
Visiting the 900 goats down the road.
Reading reading reading
Hiking hiking hiking.
