The Journeys of Darla ....

I am a Gypsy... Like my father before me, his father before him, and his father before him... It is not just in my blood, it is imprinted into my very DNA... In just over 68 years, I have moved over 40 times from one place to another... I don't set up roots, I set up camp... It always seems like the place I am moving to, will be the one I will stay at, but then the Wind calls my name, and I get restless once more... and it's calling my name again... Tomorrow I head out, with what I think is a plan, but the road will decide where I end up, and time will decide when I get back... but "back" is an illusion, because it actually doesn't exist except in an Existential Frame of Mind... where the the only Certainty, is uncertainty itself... Kafka was right...
Now, once again, the wind is calling my name ... its time to saddle up...

You may be a nomad.
Stay safe and have another wonderful ride.

RACIST..... you are white, calling yourself a gypsy is like wearing blackface. Besides a real gypsy does not set up a permanent business operation. No, instead they are.. chased from town to town ... after pillaging the farmers daughter ... and plundering the crops.
You may be a nomad.

... and Not for nothing... I have had experience in all three at one time or another ... and where my Great-Greats come from in the Ukraine is just across the border from Romania... so there is a chance I got some Gypsy blood in me from back in the days of Plundering and raping...

Tomorrow's bit... very little straight road, two ferries and three mountain ranges... all in it will be a 10 hr day with the ferry delays.
Fridays bit... have to ride through Kelowna, but then it is up the Connector, and find highway 5a... which I have not been on in a very long time on a bike...

A Switch up… Stayed on highway three… Explain later… Going to keep peddling until I run out of steam, and then tie down for the night…
Summit lake… At the top of the Kooteney pass… This is where I had second breakfast…
… Christina lake, just a bit east of Grand Forks… Stopped here for lunch.
