2020 has been an unusual year to say the least! Every American's way of life has changed! Masks, social distancing, businesses closed or out of business, people unemployed, events cancelled, protests in the streets and on and on.
When I completed my bike ride in 2017, there were doubts...many doubts! But, once I made the decision to do the ride and there were no other options everything changed! Things that I had no idea how I would do or manage fell into place and the event that changed my life happened! I never could have imagined such a series of true miracles! When we have faith, act on that faith and don't question it amazing things happen. Well, I'm at another one of those crossroads, Covid-19 has had an enormous impact on my company's business. This, coupled with an inherent sense of adventure has propelled me to my next journey! I approached my employer a couple weeks ago and offered my resignation to pursue another personal goal. He was surprised, but again very supportive just as he was when I told him I was riding my bike across America. He asked what I was going to be doing and when I told him I would be traveling across the state of Idaho with my golden retriever, Ace to do a documentary on the state of Idaho, he said "WOW! I envy you for having the #$!%@ to go after your dreams. Because of my responsibilities, I didn't offer the traditional 2 weeks notice but instead provided over 2 months notice so I can help train the individual that would be taking my place. To my amazement, he told. me that if I wanted to, they would like to keep me on in a "contractor" capacity to assist when needed. FAITH!!!! So, October 1st my next journey will begin as Ace and I set out to explore all areas of the great state of Idaho in all weather and conditions! I'll be sharing photos, videos, interviews with unique Idahoans and incredible drone videography from the most remote areas of the state. I Invite you to join me on this adventure! This is going to be fun!!!!
