Welcome to my Blog!

This blog is my way of recording events in my life for my own amusement & as a journal of sorts. I really don't expect anyone else to follow this. I am all for DOING, not watching or reading about adventures! However if anything I have done or am talking about doing on here inspires you to "GO FOR IT", then I've done my good deed of the day.


Beginning a new chapter of my life, flying solo after many years of married life, in a new area of my native state, Missouri (MO) & reestablishing a very simple, basic lifestyle on a spot of raw land.


If you've made it this far.....thanks for being interested in what I'm doing & coming along for the ride. I hope you enjoy my stories about my whaz going on in my life. Let our journey begin! Shift colors.

Small accomplishment

Yesterday I was able to install BY MYSELF my sissy bar & luggage rack! One step closer to getting my bike ready for road trips!



I know this is ridiculously simplistic, but for one that was used to having an incredibly intelligent, resourceful husband who used to do all these kind of things for me, its a major thing for me!

AND the new Kuryakyn bag (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_JkQFmigac), recommended by one of my bike buds arrived too. GREAT road luggage! I can tell already that this is going to work perfectly for packing my gear. Plan is to attach tent/sleeping bag gear on opposite side of sissy bar from this bag.

The bike shop I go for mechanic service charges $75 per hour for labor so this very simple installation probably saved me some $ better spent elsewhere. Still have to get new tires & my radio installed, which WILL cost a pretty penny. But once she is outfitted, she will be better ready for the road!
