I can’t believe it. After 20 years of dreaming, look at the calendar. I am going in 8 weeks.

May 5th my driving buddy and I strike out at the crack of dawn heading for her sister’s in BC. We will be pushing it. No exploring on the way…well, maybe a little. I will visit there long enough to catch my breath and head for friends and family in Pitt Meadow, Victoria, Campbell River and then on to my eventual starting point in Port Hardy. I am overwhelmed with excitement. I’m not sleeping…every moment of down time is spent with my mind spinning…don’t forget this, what if that….

That kind of excitement is energizing. I jump out of bed every morning ready to roll. I guess it is that adrenaline that is missing when you are living a same old…same old life. On the other hand, all of this excitement can be exhausting.

I want to live my life in colour. Spring is coming. Life is good. Vicki
