journey's end.

I dedicate this ride to you.

on my second to last day I drove through the black hills (actually small mountains at the far eastern side of the rockies) in south dakota. the weather was very nice and it was pleasant riding until I finished the day on the freeway where I encountered high winds again. but the black hills were nice, especially silver city which my frozen imagination dreamt was shangri-la.

the hills have eyes.

on the back roads of nevada. trying to out run mother nature - successful so far - for the most part.

ride to wintermoor.

 

hey folks,

now it's time to return to wintermoor. rose and I will set out tomorrow morning, weather permitting for our long return journey from san francisco, california to columbus, minnesota.

me and rose will finish that journey for you stephen, God willing.

wish me luck or pray or whatever.

gelukkig nieuwjaar.

in old weird america.

a page is turning tonight.

if peaceful and cold.

out on the moors and "stoned immaculate"

as a star sails past.

I recall that we are too.

sailing through space.

toward some unknown place.

light years from today.

in the crystal caves of my soul.

a glimmer of hope for us all.

but a great sadness until then.

until we lay down together in peace.

may we be blessed with whatever peace is out there.

and our brothers and sisters home with us.

where the heart waits it's turn.

sven.

 

folks.

hope you've enjoyed.

please come back next year. I'll continue to 'go forth'

happy new year. thanks for coming and for your support.

roll on forever.
