We're a couple of musicians who have masqueraded as professionals for most of our lives. One a nurse, and the other an engineer. But all the while we've dreamed of making music, so now we're going to chase our dreams.
We're packing up our material possessions and storing them in beautiful Bozeman, Montana, while we cycle off to Scotland, Ireland, and greater Europe. The intention is to live on our bikes as long as the weather allows, and then find a way and a place to settle down for a bit in Scotland. Then we'll go on to Ireland for a while, and somewhere in the next year we'll make our way to Amsterdam.
Stay tuned for pics and words of our adventures, and feel free to send messages and such. We'll update from time to time, but finding WiFi in the far northwest Highlands is probably unlikely. And if I run across a haggis, that's going to take priority to updating the blog, I'll say!
For starters, here's a picture of our first go at cycle touring last year. This is in Yellowstone, before we departed for Jackson, Wyoming. We later determined this was entirely too much stuff, and shipped some stuff home from Jackson.
We have a lot to learn about cycle touring, living simply, and chasing our dreams out there in the big wide world. But if we don't get started then we'll never get there.
And even if we never "get there," at least we're out there doing it.
