Steel Magnolias

Moments from a fun ladies weekend with Kristyn and Danielle in Tennessee and Georgia. Nothing like a little upper lip sweat with your favorite gal pals to keep you giggling! Remember...keep your eyes on Jesus! Love you both:)

Hippy tree-hugging climber...or motorhead?

The best thing about getting older, wiser, more comfortable in your skin...and living in MONTANA...is that you don't have to subscribe to the restrictions of social sects. I'm a climber, a trail runner, a backcountry skier, a Nordic skier, a recycler, a green builder, a mountain biker...AND a snowmobiler and dirt biker! For a long while I eschewed my motor-tendencies because I didn't feel they fit into the niche I had carved for myself, who I saw myself being. However, who I saw myself being isn't necessarily who I AM. I'm a farm girl who could drive a 4-wheeler at age 8. Truck at 9. Tractor at 10. Combine at 12. And I can back up a truck with a trailer like a mo' fo'. So...in addition to the Deep Snow Special which provides me with stellar backcountry skiing and ice climbing access all winter long...I've expanded my throttle-quiver to include this lovely KTM 450 dirt bike. Which doubles as my summer transportation...saving a few thousands of gallons of gas in the process :) Vroom vroom
