Picaresque

Picaresque is the adjective to describe writings about a common or low character who survives the pitfalls of life through luck or good fortune. My travels, interests, my animals, my photographs, my wonderful friends and family are featured.

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

White Deer to Home Sweet Home

We got an early start from White Deer after enjoying a cup of Joy's coffee. The Garmin decided to route me a different way to Limon and after some consideration I decided go through Las Animas and Rocky Ford, Colorado to I-25. From Colorado Springs to 124th Ave above Denver was largely stop and go traffic. Very taxing and tiresome driving. When the traffic thinned out we were only 30 miles from Fort Collins, CO- too close. We arrived home at 12:40 a.m. although whether that was Eastern Standard or Mountain Standard time I cannot say. Daylight Saving Time is around the corner anyway. We'll adjust the clocks then. Safe and sound-we had a wonderful winter snowbirding and can use som rest in our familiar bed.
