  • The Vision Part 1

    Greetings earthlings. Sorry not sorry for the bland intro but society is just falling apart. I am sitting here on the wonderful patio at Sandwich Public Library but the wireless internet is down so the purpose of the visit is on hold.

    There are many gigabytes of video and pictures to upload, transfer and go through. Too many. They are backing up. And that is not the important stuff that must get done today. I have to get my health insurance fixed as soon as possible and transferred to MA so that I can get the needed meds and health check ups for my conditions. Housing must be pursued relentlessly in August as the season will come to an end and places will become available in droves. Hopefully. Need to line up a part time job somewhere within bike distance to give me what I need to afford to at least exist and survive until the business gets rolling.

    The Vision Part 1

    And then there is the vison of a camp that engulfed me in early June this year. A special kind of campground. Large campground. Many campgrounds to follow it. In brief. It would be a non-profit Camp that is purposed to eliminate hopelessness and homelessness in America. Helping people get back up on their feet or towards and into the help they so desperately need. Some need a little help. Some need a lot. But all need to be shown dignity and respect and a whole lot of love and compassion. Teach them valuable and needed trades that fit them. Teach them to write a resume and help them break free from the chains that bound them to where they are at and bring them to where they need and want to be. Nobody chose homelessness at career day. Not one. And don’t stop there. The plan is to help those battling addictions and trauma related conditions who need to know they are not alone in their battles.

    This is just the tip of the iceberg of what is floating around in my noggin among thousands of hurts and trauma related feelings and every hurtful thing ever spoken towards me. It needs to come out into the open so that this vision can save lives. Change lives. Bring hope to the hopeless. Never give up.

    Can I do it? Alone? Yes. I will die trying to make it happen and go broke and further in debt making it a reality. For one moment imagine what I could do if I had all the help I needed and a windfall of funds to put boots on the ground and build it

    And THEN there is THE QUEST. That I must complete by 5.8.2027 and that is to eBike pack across america from Provincetown MA to the Pacific Coast in California, take a mild break and see some of the Pacific Coast for 4 weeks and then come back West Coast to East Coast again. The timing is key to beat the extreme temps of summer and winter. 90 days to go East to West 4 week break and 90 days to go West to East. All of which will be video taped with action cameras and photographed with anything I can shoot pictures with that I can carry and fit into my packs. Will do it with what I have if needed but it would be much better and successful with the newer model Nomad 2x from Velotric Bike.

    In all of that I would like to start my business back up and make some money to maybe live the American dream. It still exists in me.

    God Help me. He always has and He always will. Not once have I been left abandoned or alone. He alone is always with me. Every step of this journey until today, this moment and He promises to take me ALL THE WAY. Holding on to the hem of His garment and holding Him to His promises as that is all I have to hold on to some days. And that is just fine with me.

    Until next time, Keep on keeping on. Never give up to the darkness. Praying for all who read this and those who don’t. Have a super awesome day but who am I to tell you what to do.

    Peace and Love.

  • The best made plans . . . .

    To begin would be to state that the plan wasn’t really the best to begin with. Just a list of things that needed to get done yesterday (7.22.2025) and well that did not play out as intended.

    The simple version was that I was going to bike ride 27 miles along 6a and rail trail to Brewster Ladies Library Click Here To Visit Website As Always I recommend to anyone and everyone to visit a library and visit them often. Visit as many as you can and learn. Read. Get lost in the pages and activities etc. A week earlier I had borrowed a mobile hotspot from the BLL and it needed to be returned. From Sandwich MA to the Library it is approximately 27 miles one way. So I planned to return that and do some computer work and on return trip visit some of the beaches in Dennis as I have yet to see any of them in all of my visits to Cape Cod.

    Well none of it worked out. I had lost my keys in the campground and when I needed them to change over eBike battery on my Velotric Nomad 1 steed . . . . . . nope not happening. I was in major panic mode for about 15 minutes and even cut myself accidentally digging through my trunk bag. After dealing with the bleeding I assessed the situation and made choices. Here I sit behind a Dunkin sipping coffee and no way to change or charge a battery. Crisis #1,378,378,327.1

    I phoned the library asking if there was any way someone would be able to get to the Dunkin Donuts 3 miles down the road from the Library on 6a. After short explanation and discussion someone would arrive within half an hour to grab the hotspot saving me another 6 miles on the LONG ride back pedaling a heavy loaded ebike with a backpack on my back to boot.

    KEEP ON KEEPING ON
