a family's adventures off the beaten path...
...we view the path as both literal and figurative. It's the choice to stay off of the interstate when possible, to stop for lunch at a farmstand, to choose to turn off the television in the summer. We have found that there are so many adventures out there if we look past the drive through, the big box, and the tourist traps.
Who we are:
Backroad Mama - reader, writer, liberal, teacher, learner, cook, creative, artist, the intuitive
Backroad Papa - leader, strategist, saver, fan, stirrer (of the cook's pots and pans), omnivore, forgiver, the analyst
Little Bess - thinker, questioner, drama queen, stirrer (of her brothers' pots of trouble),vegetarian, the saver of animals
Jack the Ranger - feeler, wordsmith, omnivore (would-be carnivore), listener, the emotional barometer
T-Rex - adventurer, omnivore (would be carnivore if he were a real dinosaur!), smiler, the one who knows everyone's soft spot
Some of those who influence our life:
Wendell Berry
Howard Zinn
Ghandi
The Dahli Lama
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Georgia O'Keeffe
Maya Angelou
Some lovely friends and family members who actually get us...or at least join us for an adventure of the backroad now and then!
Namaste
