This is my first election year without a TV or local radio. I have been completely dependent on the internet and print media for my electoral news.
Instead of bulleted paragraph points in a brochure or snippets of speech chosen for me by an editor or the oddness of my brain, I have read (and reread) or watched (and rewatched) entire speeches and election platforms online.
The result of all this exposure dawned on me when I glanced at my ballot. Instead of the straight Republican ticket of previous years, my ballot this year is a jumbled, bi-partisan alphabet soup of R's, D's, and I's. I feel so much hope and delight about this!
This is the place to come to follow the chronicles of my journey through life. You'll find observations of events (both good and bad) with me pondering who I choose to be in relation to those events. This is also the place for me to record my motorcycle journeys. Hope you enjoy the ride!
