Maybe that's why this happened! On Sunday I decided I needed to take our malamute Luna for… Continue reading Personal Rainbows

Usually once a year, if not twice, I visit The Peace Village... a meditation and learning center located in the Catskill Mountains, about 90 minutes from my home in upstate New York. I have been to several different themed… Continue reading Science of the Soul

I Can Do This!
I started snowboarding when I was 16 years old. I had never skied or really did anything in the snow with the exception of some sledding in my younger years.

Don’t Judge a Book by the Cover
It was a wild way that the book Illusions, by Richard Bach came into my life. I think that when you have something really amazing in your grips, the Universe makes sure it’s memorable for you.
