Having been almost a year since I've put anything up here, and having also killed all social media links, you will have to be a pretty dedicated follower or too lazy to ever unsubscribe to be exposed to this babble. Really have no idea where this is going to go so we'll be in the …

Thanks be to the gods I don't believe in, today was the last day collecting data in Utah. Tomorrow, pack and roll. Saturday hit Bend and visit some fam, Sunday, home. There is no way to express how happy I am to be returning to my tiny home and friends. Sure, the last post (so, …
Stunning how fast time can fly when you live in a tent in the middle of the Utah desert 6 days a week. Turns out the one day a week in Vernal at the hotel is PLENTY. Shit in a real toilet, shower off the grime, do laundry, sleep in a bed, then get the …
After finally getting myself the long illusory setup of a cozy home base from which to explore, I find myself pulled from it for yet another summer away from friends, family and familiarity. It's a "same first letter triplets" kind of post, folks. Yup, got me a real job and all that and still have …
Put yer big people panties on, it's gonna get a little rough here for a bit. I'm a little fired up. Pun intended. So, once again California is a raging inferno, big surprise. Welcome to the West the past 15 years. Many places in the west that have fought tooth and nail to oppose any …
Cheers, good readers!! How's it been? As typical, much has happened since the end of the big trip. That interview I cut the trip short for paid off well. I'm 2 weeks in on being a Field GIS Tech with a sweet small engineering firm that I'll never name here. Like to keep personal and …
Ugh. Holy shit, it's over. For now. That was a haul unlike any other I've attempted. Trying to find words to encapsulate a trip of such size is difficult, hell, trying to grasp all that was seen and done is a lost cause. Gotta love photos and blogging for keeping track of the memories and …
Rolling into Hartland, WI had me nervous initially, but very soon that all went away and a most excellent time was had. For a very long time family for me has consisted of my sister, bro-in-law and their kids. My folks bailed from Wisconsin to the west coast soon after getting married and didn't keep …
So, after riding 275 miles through a driving rain storm in fucking August it was time to hunker in a cheap hotel in Eau Claire, WI. Yes, I'm in Wisconsin. Let me tell ya how I got here and what I seen. I seen some stuff, man. Lots of stuff. In case you weren't aware, …

After a solid 3 weeks in Canada, it's time to start heading east again. Here in a bit I'm heading out to Drumheller, AB to check out the Royal Tyrell Museum which is loaded with dinosaur artifacts. The Alberta Badlands are one of those rare places loaded with fossils of all kinds that I can't …
