The Weather station was reporting a small craft advisory and the only other boats out on the lake were sailboats under power headed to marinas. I pushed off and Crossed into Canada and then paddled head on into the wind to get to the New York side of the lake. Once I reached the West Shore I turned south and battled the waves and wind.

Life after Death – Learning to live after loss
Learning how to live again after someone or something you love so deeply, has been torn from your life is a difficult to say the least. Some of us never quite recover; never move past that moment. Some have even died themselves immediately after such an event and I’m not taking about suicide, but natural causes, if Heartache is natural.
Seven Days till Launch and change continues
This past weekend a friend saw a news blip that a portion of the Erie Canal was to be closed (about 30 miles to be exact) just a few days before I am to start paddling it on July 1st. Well, when I set my mind to something, I don’t let little things get in the way and like the water I am drawn to, I chose to push that little obstacle out of my way. How? That’s the fun part.

If there is one constant in my life, it’s Change. It’s actually a constant in everyone’s life, though many resist it with all their might. Me, I love change.

Find your Ant
A story popped up in my news feed today. It was a story about a couple that bought their first home; 264 Glen Avenue in Millburn, N.J. actually. Then they became overwhelmed by the work the house needed…as most of us who buy homes do. This phenomenon is so common; there was a movie about it…
Life doesn’t Go On for those in mourning
When you lose your soul mate the future seems very dark. I am sure or at least hope that it won’t be, but that is how I feel right now and honestly, I do not wish to feel any other way.
You’re Really Gone. A Letter to Lexie
I arrived home today; they say that Home is where your Heart is, but my heart isn’t here and I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to be anywhere because you aren’t. You aren’t here anymore and I simply can not imagine life without you.
Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving friends. I was greeted by this beautiful sunrise this morning and the world around me glowing this color, well,what ever color this may be. It was a comforting color to wake up to and despite the chilly 27 degree Fahrenheit temps and frozen ground, I had to immediately go outside and take some…
Facebook, Hate, Love and Hippietarian
I’m back. I should have looked to see how many people unfriended me, but that would mean I cared. What I care about are those that stuck with me, read my blog and agree that Hate has no place in our lives.
When Hate Filled My World
But here we are, days after the Paris bombings and shootings and my very diverse newsfeed on Facebook has become filled with hate. Hate I can’t hide
