people often ask me how I find the spots to take the pictures I get and for a long time I was not sure but I realize I use driving as a way to quit my mind and eventually I'll have to stop and let the dogs out 
and that's how it starts. While walking with the dogs I'll see something that grabs my interest. 
and I'll just head that way. In this journey I have decided that my dogs are part mountain goat. 
because no matter the the terrain they always seem to get ahead of me leaving me somewhere down the hill having a small stroke. 
and eventually we get to that perfect spot to sit and have a snack and think about the past, present, and future. I think that's a lot to do with the problems people have today. They are so busy trying to have the latest and greatest to stroke there own ego they don't take time to think about what is really important in life... 
there is so much around us that we have been programmed to tune out and keep us focused on the dollar of big business. And the longer we stay disconnected from are basics we miss so much. 
like the simplicity of my dogs finding a icy snow patch and sliding down it like a couple of kids

Well my friend that is the best part of this lifestyle I don't know where I'm going next I could go 50 miles up the road and completely changed my scenery with a lake or go 80 miles in the other direction for old volcanoes or South for more desert looking climate it's such a variety in the Midwest and you don't have to go far to see the beauty and things. And in all honesty I think this lifestyle actually saved my life when I lost my oldest son a few months ago they gave me away to be stress-free and grieve in a healthy way and not very it because I'm trying to work and pay bills 4 things I can't afford
