Going Walkabout..

In the days long past I would simply disappear for a bit.. that's known as a walkabout. My longest walkabout took me through the States of Texas, AZ, Nevada, CA, WA, ID,UT, OR and MT.. that was a 30+ day trip ( I never returned so it was actually 6 years..lol...before they saw me again ). That was before I had horses. My trips generally are about me, searching for balance and harmony within. Sometimes though I just want to get away for a bit, away from computers, tvs,phones , radios, ok... lol.. civilization.... Occasionally on other trips I simply start walking and go wherever my feet and my horses take me. We've been through parts of the Andaconda Pintler Wilderness; we've gone through Hoodoo Pass in ID... so many Lakes and dirt roads.... to trails only the deer travel on. So many areas of wilderness to embrace. My dogs accompany me . There we are.. three horses, 2 dogs now.. and me. I was thinking perhaps we could go camping... lots of fresh grass to graze.. go pick pecans for a couple of days.

I'm simply tired... and as odd as this may sound - I miss myself. I want to hear myself think without interruption. I want to relax and watch the clouds roll by. I want and I need this - even if it is only for a few days. I need solitude to bathe my soul and refresh me once again.

I may or may not pop online in the morning.. so no worries! Catch up with you all by and by! Hugs!
with love and light always, Katie

WOW!! What a wonderful vacation this would be. In the open air to breath in it's magnificence, it's healing powers of the soul. To feel the earth untouched by man's buildings *sigh*. I need this one:-).
