Beginning

This is my first attempt at a blog, so we will see how it turns out! The idea behind this is to relate stories from my travels to friends and family and anyone else who is interested.

After four and a half years in Pittsburgh, PA, I loaded up my mom's station wagon with all of my worldly goods--my bike strapped to the roof and cat in her carrier (but after 4 hours of driving with her incessant mewing, we let Sassafras roam the car where she enjoyed sprawling across my lap and sitting on boxes with a nice view out the window). From now until the beginning of May, I will be residing on the coast of Mississippi with my parents. Then the real adventure begins-- from May to October, I will live, work, and play on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon.

I look forward to immersing myself in new landscapes and old histories, and invite you to follow along.
