Being from the Twin Cities you sort of assume you are kind of outdoorsy, since most people fear living there due to the temps and snow. So while I did detour to Colorado for a while, I ended up in Iowa, (don't confuse with the potato state of Idaho), on a farm, with a cowboy, cows and two boys, for the last 21 years. I did not have a clue what country life was really like. I have learned a lot! It has been a bumpy ride, so it is with this thing called life.
My friends think of me as a sort of city, country, storytelling, stardusty, peace love mama, which I prefer to bat shit crazy ( I am not) but I do know plenty of them. I do say shit, a great deal, and I write shit a great deal, so if that is a big icky word for you go elsewhere. Also, I write the way I think, fair warning for you grammar nuts. I love MN and the trees and water in my youth. I love Colorado and knowing which way is west all the time, and the smells in the beautiful mountains, in my wandering years. I love Iowa for the bonfire burnings and growing up even more, with some wonderful humans in a small town. Being on the planet this long and experiencing the life I chose along with the aging process, gives me quite a bit to ponder...and share. I hope you enjoy my journey's ramblings. It is all sparkles and stardust, peace and love to you in every way! D PS Thanks maxpixel for the great photo

You’re right, that pic is perfect! I need to think about the dust control too! Sigh. Why do we get 2 companies trying to get our $ every year?! I’m checking into it to see if one product is better than the other. I’ll let ya know!

I love this post and can’t wait to read more. Living in Idaho I get confused with an Iowan all the time. Happy to know this faux pas goes both ways! 😉
