On to new adventures












In the morning my adventure begins first I will drive to Salt Lake City and stop here. Kristine carries my fibers so this will be a sales call. She is also a friend so it will be great to see her again.

Then I will stop in Draper where there is an IKEA store. I have never been to one so I thought I would check it out. I am looking for new storage solutions for my studio.















Next I will drive to Moab and spend the night at my friend Adrien's. I'll put my little tent up in her yard for the night. It will be great to see her again. As you can see Moab looks quite like Sedona did.













On Friday I plan to stop here and camp. I could go all the way to Taos but decided to see this park. On Sat I will head to Taos. I will be staying here for the week of the Writer's Spa.














Its called the Mabel Dodge Luhan house and it's namesake was quite a woman. Click here to find out more. I'll spend a week there and then my itinerary is very loose. I am thinking of spending a few days in Taos and then a few in Santa Fe. I plan on seeing lots of art and fill up that artistic well. On my way home I plan a stop at Chaco Canyon. There are some fantastic Indian ruins there. I am leaving the rest open to serendipity, if I hear about something interesting I may just stay for it. I am open to whatever the Universe has in store.

See you when I get back...

I am so in awe of your ability to take off on your own like this. To camp, to venture, to drive...alone...well I admit it's not something I could do.
I hope the Taos week is all you hope for and more, and good luck with maybe getting some people to sell your wool!
See you when you get back!
XOXO

Kate,

I'm wishing you an incredible time. I think you will come back a changed person, a different woman. Most of all, I think you will be inspired with new directions for your dreams. Love to you, O

I hope that you have a wonderful time Kate. :) Can't say that I would have even a spark of the courage that it takes to go on an adventure such as this one alone. I know that you will have a great time though. :) Can't wait for your return. :)

Hey Kate. Just zooming by to say hello. Well, not exactly. My computer is so old and slow it doesn't zoom anywhere, but here I am, after too long a click and wait! Hope you have a wonderful trip. I'm envious. xoxoxoxoxo

Sending blessings to you for a very spiritual trip and to learn new ways to put words on paper.

I'm drooling. You're seeing all kinds of things I've always wanted to see.
