<span style="font-size: small;">Happy New Year!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">We made it through 2012.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"> A year ago <span style="font-size: small;">I</span> was still <span style="font-size: small;">in the planning sta<span style="font-size: small;">ge of <span style="font-size: small;">our <span style="font-size: small;">east to west coast trip. And now after being in Texas for 4 months we feel it is time for <span style="font-size: small;">the journey home. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span>I have learned a lot in the last year about letting go. And also about embracing new people and places that have taught me to grow as a person. A lot of my lessons started before the trip. Especially how much people are willing to help and support things that are outside of their understanding but they still cared enough to help. This era is changing rapidly and there are no guidelines for how to live. We are each of us responsible for bringing forth a new age where acceptance and integrity take on a new place at the fore front. There is a lot of talk from people all around the country(and possibly the world) about where we are going as a nation and as a people. From my experiences over the past year I would like to see the emphasis be on community, simplicity, and the integration of universal truths such as Love. There will come a time when the people of the United States will be taking back their country and when we do i would like to see that happen based on true Liberty. That can not happen unless we are a moral and virtuous people. So says Dr. Ron Paul. I dont mean to keep the topic on politics its just something that's been on my mind, and it may seem idealistic but I believe in the spirit of humanity even when the ego gets in the way. So I will close this thought by reiterating that I Love you and I am keeping the faith. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Again the last few months have been very intense and busy. We recognized the boys birthdays, a day of Thanksgiving, and observed the holiday when Mary gave birth to Christ. We were able to be here to see family and friends pass into a new year. We also happened to be here when Claytons dad had a heart attack! Holy Sheep, Batman he's OK but lets hope he stays that way. Due to Charlies health and other circumstances we have been living in New Braunfels with my in-laws for the last few months. Besides wake up calls to mortality we have thoroughly enjoyed our time
here with family and friends. Clayton found work at an Aquaponics farm
called Lily pad Farm. There are 4 large greenhouses and two large tanks
of tilapia in each greenhouse. The fish provide nutrients to the plants
and the plant roots filter the water and bring oxygen back to the fish.
Its and amazing example of a true symbiotic relationship and a new way
of raising sustainable farm raised fish. All the plants are grown using
heirloom seeds and they grow anything from kale, lettuce, herbs, and
cucumbers but there are a lot of possibilities. Clayton is trying to
learn all he can about the whole process so that we can build a system
in Maine. This is just one of the areas we would like to pursue in the
next year that we are very much looking forward to. I will leave you
with these thoughts and know that i plan on continuing with this blog to
chart our trip on the way back to Maine which should be taking place in
a few weeks. In the meantime here are some more photos to document a
little of our time. Namaste! </div>

I could say that its been lifetimes spent arranging and re-arranging our lives in just a few short weeks. Our intention leaving Oregon and going to California early was to procure a new means to travel. I had spent the better part of my free time the previous two weeks researching the best vw bus on the market. Yes, you read that right, a Vw Bus!! This has actually been the dream car of mine since i was a young lassie watching those crazy surfers pull up on the beaches of California and throwing open the doors to another universe.With help from my dad who was making this possible and also trying to find us a good vehichle, we had found a few potential vw camper buses in the Portland area but nothing seemed 'right'. I finally found on the craigslist for the San Francisco Bay area, a perfect vessel for our travels. We made contact with the owner and all found that this was a good fit. So the next thing we new we were renting a car and heading to Stanta Cruz, CA.<br />
Her name is Genie.<br />
Alex and Chelsea the owners of this lovely bus invited us to stay with them for a few days in there magical world among the redwoods. This gave us an opportunity to get to know life in a Vw Bus and see if she was the right fit for us. We rode into California a little sleep deprived but excited ( we drove straight through Oregon and California all night taking advantage of sleeping children and a quiet ride). We needed to return the car we rented that same day we got in and as i was getting our children acclimated to a new space clayton transferred our belongings into our new home a.k.a Genie. Before clayton and alex ran to drop the car off he asked me if i wanted to check the car to make sure i got everything...well i <b>assumed</b> that it was all good and refrained from looking and off they went to bring the car to the San Jose airport. You know what they say of assuming....shortly after claytons return i realized that i had left the ipad in the rental. This is the reason i have not written a blog in a month alongside the fact that i have not had a moment to breathe or think beyond what could be done in the next moment. Any way this is where the story starts to go off in many directions and i am going to attempt to outline the series of unfortunate events and the angels and faith that pursued us after crossing the border into California. After we realized the ipad was missing we immediately called the folks over at Budget to let them know we had left it in the car and could they go retrieve it so we could come back and pick it up. They let us know they were very busy but that they were going to call upstairs to see if anyone could go look in the car. After waiting a little while we called them back and no one was really sure if the car had been looked at but they had seen that a lost ipad had come through and was put into either the vault or locked in a managers office and could we call back tomorrow to speak with the manager. At this we were freaking out but hopeful that the lost ipad was ours. Meanwhile we got to know Alex and Chelsea a little and even while we were a little stressed it did not keep us from enjoying good company!! Chelsea is my doppelganger and is one of the coolest ladies i have ever met. And Alex put a 93' Subaru legacy engine in a 1974 VW Bus and rebuilt most of it. (need i say more?!?! "Amazing"). I wont say more except that i had been hoping to find while on this trip people who we connect with and i found this and more with these lovely people. Over the weekend we relaxed and took the kids to the creek in the woods and drove Genie around town. There was really no question about whether we wanted to take Genie home with us and drive her on our trip it was love at first sight. However, I think I could sense that Alex was a little sad to sell her and I thought that not being so enthusiastic would prove sympathetic. In between the good times we were also trying to recover our lost ipad. When we called to speak with a manager on Saturday morning she told us the car was going to be put on hold so that no one could drive it, she wasn't sure if someone had gone to look in it and she had no lost ipad in her possession but that more than likely it was in the vault of the manager who takes care of lost and found. Who of course is not in until Monday. On Monday we called the manager and she told us that she has no ipad, and that the car was rented and she doesnt even know how they could have put the car on hold. However there was still hope she was trying to reach the couple who rented the car and find out if they could find the ipad in the car(which was under the passenger seat hidden oh so well by me the paranoid lady who didn't want her ipad stolen so she hid it so well no one could find it.)Success! While we were saying good bye to our new friends and leaving with Genie to go visit family in Concord, CA we received the call that the couple found our ipad and would drop it off when they brought the car back Friday night. Okay, good. Only a few more days of just patiently waiting until we could just put all this incompetence behind us.Maybe. We had a lovely visit with claytons cousin Danny, his wife Mellisa, and beautiful baby Gabriel (nothing cures stress like holding a sweet baby, nothing). And then further got to visit with his Aunt who some call Kathy, i call her Katrina knowing she prefers this name. We enjoyed a lovely day at Muir Beach but looking back i think my spirits were a little low and were manifesting strange people to enter my space to teach me a lesson (one that i am still not certain of but i am hoping i understand it all right.) There was a lady who had started to play with the kids saying she was a preschool teacher and enjoyed children who liked to be wild. At first i was pleased by the compliment but then started to become mildly alarmed when she started to tell me about how she had lost her job and was now basically homeless drifting up the coast towards Humboldt County. She was not observing that we wanted her to pass by and eventually i thought it best to leave. She never posed a real immediate threat and i am sure she was fine but i was beginning to sense a psychic vampire and wanted to leave fast. We decided to get diner locally and went to a place which was nice but filled with the elite muggles who's only reality is the dissatisfaction of their own lives. You may think i am being harsh but we had a few encounters there to understand that we were not welcome on principle. I do mostly feel sorry for people like this because their life is filled with pain and they are only trying to fill emptiness with emptiness but i know that to much empathy does not really help any one and i would rather be a reflection of true happiness. However after my observations on the beach i feel that the universe was certainly showing me both ends of the spectrum and it upset my own balance deeply. Pride is one of my biggest faults and these were some good lessons of humility...so were the ones to follow.<br />
Katrina offered to watch the kids for us Friday so that we would be able to go out with Daniel and Mellisa( baby Gabriel was enjoying time at Mellisa's moms house) this was our first date in a while and it was a lovely time! They took us to Pyramid brew pub and then to a cute little late night Ice Cream Parlor. The next morning we woke up at katrina's intending to make our rendezvous with budget to pick up the ipad that was supposed to have been arranged by the manager for us to pick it up. On the way down clayton decided to call Budget to alert them that we were on our way...and they had no idea what he was talking about. We were by this time so out of patience with them that clatyon actually got angry! (crazy, i know). He told them we were on our way and our ipad better be found! We both were upset but felt that things would get straightened out. This was until clayton pulled over onto the side of the highway because the engine stopped running. We all new that there would be things that could happen to a lady bus as old as Genie of course there were bound to be issues. But here we were not even a week after purchasing her and she has broken down and both alex and chelsea were out of town. Okay dont panic middle of the day on the highway with three kids it is all going to be O.K. Fortunately we have AAA! We called them and their eta was about an hour. Plenty of time to figure out what went wrong and figure out how to fix it. We discovered that a gear on the timing belt broke off and shot through the timing belt cover. Not so good. We called the nearest subaru repair shop and found that might have the right parts and had Genie towed there. While on the highway waiting for the tow the nicest police officer (no, really) offered to drive the boys and I to the nearest denny's and clayton stayed with Genie. Around the same time that AAA showed up for clayton Katrina came and picked us up from Denny's. So we all were able to return to Katrina's with some deep sadness and frustration. I would like to enter here a very strong sense of gratitude that if this was going to happen at least there was family to be there for us and if i could have asked for any one to be there for us i could not have asked for a woman with more Faith than Clayton's aunt (who also happens to be his godmother) Katrina. The entire time that we stayed with her she never wavered in the fact that all would be well no matter what. So to make an already very long story a little shorter i am going to just try to sum up the rest of this for you.Monday morning came around and the manager from budget called straight away and said "i am so sorry we have your ipad please come get it" so Katrina very nicely let us borrow her car and we drove to the airport only for Clayton to find that it was not in fact our ipad. Not only that but it was white, not black. At this point they called the District Manager to come in and investigate. Finally some one who might discover what the Hell is going on.Onto our other major concern Genie was not looked at until Tuesday and we had already decided after talking to Alex when he got back into town Monday night that we would just buy the parts and he would help Clayton fix her. Two days were spent trying to fix Genie and we were still staying at Katrina's apartment. She was invited to go stay with a friend in the mountains and thought we could use her apartment and her car while we were trying to figure out our lives!! May the God she finds comfort in Bless her she really saved us.It was such a comfort to stay in her place which is like an exhibit of her faith with iconography every where reminding you that we are all at the mercy of something greater than ourselves. Its hard to be drawn into apathy with images of angels surrounding you and random quotes of gratitude placed every where! Meanwhile my mother and her husband were due to arrive in half moon bay and i was very anxious to see them i missed them terribly and knowing that i was going to see them soon was wonderful. While Clayton was working on Genie i decided to go see them upon their arrival. Until i was delayed by the giant screw in the tire of Katrina's car and spent most of the day with the boys waiting at the auto repair shop so they could patch the tire. I did make it to my mom and doug but i am afraid by the time i got to see them i may have been close to a nervous wreck not helped by the fact that i drove straight through San Francisco at rush hour to see them. But it was worth it and i drove back with happy children and a sense that things are still going to be ok. When i got to Claytons cousins house (this is where the guys were working on the car! <3 family) i found that the timing belt was fixed and Genie was running!!! But. There was a small problem with the transmission and it would be fixed tomorrow. Breathing deeply here. We stayed another night at katrinas and clayton left the next day to meet Alex again and finally fix Genie. And it worked, Clayton came home late afternoon and Genie was fine! So the next day we cleaned up Katrinas house packed our stuff piled into Genie and pulled out of the parking spot. Only to discover that she would not shift. OKAY. I witnessed a miracle of patience in my husband when he grabbed the steering wheel for dear life and just took a deep breathe. I will say that this is one of the reasons i Love him. He does not react to things like I do and has taught me that there is no reason to spend energy on something you can not change. So we pushed Genie back into her spot and called alex. While the boys are also patient they were expecting to go some where so while we were trying to think of what to do next we took them to the playground around the corner so they could get out some energy and we could regroup. Alex called the folks who built the transmission kit and learned that he never received a piece and the bus should have never been able to shift in the first place!! He was sending the piece over night and we all decided to just have Genie towed to his house. At this point we were supposed to be in Half Moon bay visiting with my family and Katrina was on her way back home hoping to find an empty quiet apartment. We needed to figure something out fast so we decided to rent a car for the rest of the time she was in town and went down to camp so we'd be close enough to visit. After a lot of thought and tears and a frustrated heart we had to contemplate that maybe Genie was not meant to be ours and that it might not be safe to take her to Texas while we'd be traveling through the desert to get there. At this point we were also coming close to being completely broke and it seemed a practical idea to cut our losses and sell her back to Alex and Chelsea. I can not even begin to tell you how sad we were realizing this. Even as i write this i feel a sense of loss, we had already adopted Genie into our family and it was very hard to let her go. If we did not have three small children the same decision would not have been made. And so we went to say good bye again to alex and chelsea hoping even now that any bruising to our friendship will heal because a greater loss would be unimaginable. We know they had no idea that these issues would come up and we wish them well fixing and selling Genie to her rightful owners. Upon driving away from their house i had left my camera on top of the car and it fell off three miles later it was not outwardly damaged but the digital viewing was not working and i have no idea if the pictures i have been taking will actually come out( i thought i'd share this story with you in case you thought things would at least start looking up for us). Okay it really did seem to be going well after that. We got in some great time with my mom and doug during labor day weekend! Santa Cruz beach boardwalk (my old stomping grounds when i lived in California as a child) was amazing to take my children to!! That night we got a great night rest at Alex and Chelsea's house they went out of town to visit her dad for the weekend and offered hospitality again for the night. And the next day we drove down to meet mom and doug for a great day at the Monterey Aquarium and then the beach in Carmel another great place from my childhood! After we said good bye to mom and Doug we went and found a camp site in Big Sur (a miracle in and of itself on labor day weekend). And spent Labor day on pfeiffer beach. By this time we had heard from the DM at Budget that our ipad was stolen from an employee and that they would mail us a check to cover our losses. The following day we had a plan to drop of our current car and pick up another one to take to Texas. We felt that after all we had been through it was a good idea to just make our way to more solid ground so to speak. We were using Budget again not from any fondness for their company but because we were hoping after all the incompetence we met with them they could help lower the cost of our rental. One way rentals ending up being twice to three times the amount of a round trip rental. Clayton spoke with the DM directly about this and after considerable thought he decided to just take care of the whole rental instead of sending us a check for the ipad. This worked out well for us as the rental was twice the amount of an ipad. We spent the entire day stuck in traffic trying to drop off the other rental and were very late to say goodbye to my mom and Doug and were not feeling very uplifted about the next leg of our trip. But life is not just about happiness and contentment we kept pushing on. That night we slept in Big Basin and found a little sanctuary waking up among some very old redwood trees. It took a while to properly pack up the car and get on our way to Texas but we managed about four hours of driving and spent the night right on the west side of the Sierra Nevada. I will save the rest of the story for the next blog.The next portion of our trip is beautiful and we are very grateful to have had five days to ourselves as a family. We saw some really amazing places in the four corners region of our country. We have passed over the continental divide once again and i am writing this to you from a very familiar place called New Braunfels Texas. In the home of my dear mother and father in law!! We are here three weeks early due to some crazy circumstances but it was the right time to get here. We are not the only ones who have misfortune. Clayton's Mom is undergoing surgery next week, and Clayton's grandfather is not doing very well in his very respectable age of 87. If you could all send some good healing~loving energy out to them both Clayton and I would be very grateful!! So for now we are unwinding and trying to take some deep breaths to recover from not only being uprooted for the last 3 1/2 months, but from all the tests the universe put out for us over the last few weeks. I have experienced that humility and gratitude do not come from circumstance that you expect, but when you are at your lowest and the clouds part for a moment and light pours fourth to lighten some of the darker places of your heart. Its very easy to get comfortable in a routine and forget that to grow you need that downpour and sometimes your seeds need to get carried in the wind to be replanted in places you never expect. As always I send my love to you where you are that you learn your own sense of humility, and in turn be grateful. Namaste~Nicole G.<br />

And where you invest your love, you invest your life" Lyrics by Mumford & Sons<br />
We are leaving the Vineyard called Carlo & Julian. We were fortunate to have this time here. Felix the owner has a very special home and its amazing how many things he has managed to grow there! (i mean even besides the exceptional grapes ;) Figs, olives, artichokes, lavender, eucalyptus trees, hops!, tomatillos, and a myriad of other amazing foods, and herbs. Our work was not in the vineyard as there were already other wwoofers who knew what they were doing in the grape vines. However,there was plenty of work to be done if only one could see past the chaos. Besides tending the gardens there are chickens, lambs, , and ducks! Oh and who could fail to mention the cats...there were 7, a good number. Claytons job during the last two weeks involved weed whacking and chain sawing 2/4 the perimeter of the vineyard! There was an over abundance of blackberries and hawthorne trees that needed to be taken out so that they did not create a frost pocket between the grapes and the fence. I was spending my time helping clayton move the brush to the burn pile and working with the boys in the veggie garden. I dont have much to say about either job except that i despise blackberries and the scratches on my arms itch like crazy. I was also asked to help with the landscaping next to the house that had been neglected for over a year and only this spring did someone start cutting into the jungle. I had some difficulty with this job and liked the straightforwardness of the veggie garden. I think it would have been nicer to have some one there with me giving me a little more direction. I was usually left to myself and was often lost. However i did get a good idea about the plants i would not have in my garden! i think that wild geraniums should be eradicated. That garden on the side of the house was however full of secrets and before the other wwoofers mentioned that the house was haunted i felt a presence there. A very strong woman presence and she wanted things to be a certain way, i tried to listen to her as much as i could, and still appease Felix Madrid's direction. Felix is a very intelligent man who has a teachers soul. If only he had a farm manager and was able to spend a little more time working with his wwoofers! I am sure that only being there for two weeks does not really entitle me to have an opinion though. We were treated very well and dinners were made and wine was to be had! Company came often and the other wwoofers were very friendly. The boys spent a lot of time riding bikes and scooters and chasing the cats, and ducks around the property. Somehow they managed to pass the time with out toys and they liked it! But all times come to an end and a new adventure begins! We are currently driving to the oregon coast to camp around pacific city. Then we will be making our way south to California. We have rented a car (thank you Yia Yia, and Opa!) and are going to take a well needed time out from the world for a couple of days. I hope you are all living your lives fully and enjoy this sunshine!<br />

Vernon. I feel very good about our time there and was sorry to leave, it went by so quickly! But there is more to learn on this journey and we are looking forward to seeing more of the west coast. The last week or so have been a continuation of the weeks prior and there is not much more to report besides sharing with you again that being in a field for a few hours a day brings a lot of peace to my mind. I have also begun an altered perception of how this world works. More people need to work on farms. All the folks who say they love their organic food should go cultivate the fields from where the kale grows. It will give you a better understanding of your place in the world. No one 'grows' food. As a mother i know that i don't make the babies that i carry beneath my heart. Their creation took place at the birth of the world, and while i am apart of that, it is not from me. The same is true for the miracle of food. It does not come from a farmer but from a tiny seed that contains the mystery of the world. Farmers are stewards of the land, the midwife helping to bring forth and encourage abundance. In a way just as the mountains at glacier made me realize how small i am in the world these tiny seeds make me realize that i am only a blowing thought in the mind of creation...traveling through the world to help create and destroy as the need arises. In other words...i am humbled. We are now on the train traveling south to oregon to go work on a vineyard for a couple of weeks. We will be living in our tent and i am happy to report we were able to return our punctured air mattress and i have faith that we will not be on the ground every morning! The boys seem to be OK leaving behind their new friends and are looking forward to this new adventure. Keeping positive thoughts that we travel without complications. Until the next post please be well!

A view from the kitchen in the barn, a bull eating grass right outside where we stay in the camper, clayton playing with a slug, alyx and his good friend theo being silly in costume, and elijah looking like christopher robin riding a bike. And some other local flavors...I look way to happy to be harvesting cilantro!

Vernon Highwater FarmWe have been staying on a farm here in mt. vernon now for two weeks. The arrangement was that clayton and i each work 4 hours a day in exchange for food and a place to sleep. The farm grows kale, beets, onions, carrots, beans, peas, and an assortment of herbs. We arrived here via amtrak and were picked up at the train station by the farm owner whose name is jeff. He showed up at the amtrak station in his vw bus and i knew this was fated to work out very well as i am very fond of that vehicle. As we rode back to the farm we shared our general back ground story and very slowly got to know each other. I could tell right off that Jeff is a very quiet patient person. It was a short car ride from the station to the farm but what we could see of mt. vernon was beautiful farmland with the cascade mountains in the background. These mountains are what i see everyday that i wake up and they never fail to make me pause and enjoy there sense of timeless presence. We arrived at the farm fairly late in the evening and after being introduced to the whole family ( jeff and his wife danielle have 5 children!) and the mother daughter duo who is wwoofing here as well we said good night! The next day we got ourselves acquainted with the farm and what our responsibilities would be. We could see that they had a diverse range of food that they grow as well as some sheep chickens and a llama who no matter where i am during the day it seems to be staring at me :) i later found out that the llama is actually guarding the other animals from coyotes and other pests.We are well accommodated here as they have redone the barn in a rustic manner to provide a kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining room for their wwoofers. The mother and daughter had already settled into the living room with the pull out couch and we were offered an unfinished bedroom or the camper and decided to go with the camper. It is nice to have our own separate space to sleep in and have some privacy as a family. However they have fully stocked the kitchen in the barn with food for us to eat and we are allowed any thing out of the gardens. sharing the barn space with the mother and daughter has been ok for the most part and we are very respectful of each others needs. We at least agree to keep a clean space and i really cant ask for more than that! Our children seem to be very happy here with the other kids. elijah had found a friend in jeff and Danielle's 8 year old son and alyx is good friends with their five year old. Cedric seems to just like following every one around at his own whim. We have struggled a little with him as he has been watching our fellow wwoofers daughter and seems to assume that if he cries like she does that i will give in to his whining. However this little girl is not yet two and her mother has a different method of parenting than i do so we are just patiently reminding cedric that he will not be getting his way every time that he whines. This is the first time cedric has been around other children on a daily basis and so its a good lesson for us all to learn. We have managed our work for the day pretty well. Trading off with work in the fields and hanging out with the kids. Some days if we need to harvest clayton and i have worked together but otherwise we trade. Our job has been very simply to cultivate the fields, this is a nice term to use in place of the term 'hoeing' the fields.. Cultivating is when we use the hoe and sweep through the dirt surrounding the place to loosen the soil and pull up the weeds. When the plants are to small and you can not use the hoe we get down in the dirt and using a knife cut out the weeds by hand. Any one who is not familiar with how to do these things would be advised to learn directly from a farmer and should not attempt this on their own. I though that hand weeding meant you had to squat next to the bed and get all of the weeds in the bed. This is not the case folks! you only get the weeds in the row that are around the small plants...i was out there for four hours and could not walk for the next two days! Also, if you have been weeding by hand you should maybe only do this for about an hour and then go on to another project for there are endless things that can be done on a farm. Besides the weeding and harvesting we have been helping to put new seeds in the ground. Jeff has been leasing a property outside of this farm for his late season kale which is just now being planted. We have also had the opportunity to deliver the harvests to some of the co-ops around here which has allowed us to see some more of washington. As we leave the farmland and start to travel on the highway though more and more i realize how much i really want to get away from all the busyness this world offers. It has been a blessing to slow down and work with the earth. and although its not my farm there is no little pride in harvesting foods that will nourish people and there families. I do not think however that we will have a farm of this size, nor do we intend to grow food for a living. But we are certainly going to try to live outside a city where we can stay connected to the land. The boys have not done much farming besides pea harvesting which i think everyone is sick of doing and there is no end to it. But the weather has been so nice almost a constant 80 degrees and sunny with a light breeze, besides a couple days of rain, so the boys have had lots of outdoor fun and plenty of fresh air. All in all i feel that this has been a very successful first wwoof experience and although the next farm will be totally different i am sure it will be rewarding in its own way. Now that we are caught up i would expect to get on here and write every few days or so. I will also be posting more photos. The next farm adventure is not until August 1st where we will be staying at a vineyard just outside of portland oregon! Thank you for continuing to read this i hope you find it helps give a clear picture of what we are up to. With love always, Namaste ~ Nicole G.

In the meantime I want to share with you our fun times in seattle the city of rain for which we saw none. We arrived tired and signed into our hostel at hotel hostel seattle (you really must check this place out!) <a href="http://www.hotelhotel.co/" target="_blank">http://www.hotelhotel.co/</a>. They have a family room that was the perfect size for all 6 of us. After all the crazy travelling and being around so many different people it was nice to unwind. We did get out to eat at jai thai in fremont and it was my brothers first introduction to thai food! I dont think he was disappointed, especially since they had fried ice cream! Then we walked off our dinner around the town and enjoyed their first friday art walk. For those worried that clayton and i have not had any time to our selves rest at ease for my brother was kind enough to watch the kiddos after they went to bed back at the hostel, he is a saint really! Clayton and in had a great time seeing fremont in the evening and we found a kick ass beer pub with 64 beers on tap! it was no navare res but it was nice to be able to sample the local flavor. For those who are unaware Clayton is a darn good brewer and part of this trip is to check out what the brews on the west coast are like. The next day was Brian's last day with us so we tried to see as many sights in seattle as we could. We made it to pikes market, a really cool pier with an arcade and carousel, and he even got up into the space needle. It was really hard to let him go back to maine but i am sure he was happy to be home. I have to say that i have the most incredible little brother of all time!! I wish him well with his high school adventures and feel certain that what ever he chooses to do in life it will be fulfilling. Thank you brian for being courageous and joining us on this trip you made it unforgettable <3<br />
<br />
The next day we went to the fremont sunday market where their are really no words for...if you ever get to seattle i would say go there if you can!! they sell all kinds of hand made jewelry and pottery and clothes and the coolest junk ever ;) Its also close to the pcc co-op which is a very snazzy place!After the market we took the bus to the coast and walked on some trails where the salmon creeks are and the kids got to play in the water. We decided to extend our seattle trip to one more day and thankfully our most amazing host Colleen allowed us to crash at her house again( we were only at the hostel for the night my brother stayed with us). We were lucky that we had a friend from maine move to seattle just a couple of months before we headed out there. So our last day in seattle we made a kids day and spent our time at the childrens museum and i think the kids were really grateful to do something where they could run and yell and be free of travel for a bit. So all in all it was pretty simple and fun to be in that crazy big city. We rode the bus line more times than i can count but it was very dependable (except on sundays) and the people who ride the bus are friendly. The only thing i can say is that i would not wish to live in a city that is so expensive, you would have to spend all your time working to pay for a place to live! i would not mind living in a less expensive place and just go visit the city. <br />
<br />
I hope you are all well and at peace, i will write again soon i promise! we will get caught up, and my blogs will not seem so hurried.

I am very sorry for the distance between posts. We have had a hard time connecting our ipad to Internet. I wanted to give you an account of our time at Glacier National Park(pictures will follow this post). We made it into east glacier on the train only 6 hours behind schedule ;) instead of camping i had the foresight to just reserve a hotel room so that we could just get a good night sleep and a shower after such a long train ride. The next day we were able to explore the small town that seems to only survive on the tourist who come in to visit the park. There is a beautiful lodge (that we did not stay at) that we were able to enjoy while we waited for the shuttle to take us to the park. They had an amazing view of the mountains and a beautiful post and beam interior any one wanting to look at their web site they can go to: <a href="http://www.glacierparkinc.com/glacier_park_lodge.php" target="_blank">glacier lodge</a> .We made it to Glacier in the middle of the day and set our tent up at Rising Sun camp ground on the east side of the park. We intended to stay in this park for just a few days and then camp maybe on the west side but as the park started filling up for fourth of july weekend we went ahead and kept that as our base camp. As we came into the park the weather was an amazing 75 degrees. We were told that only a few days before it was 50 degrees and so rainy. The first full day at the park we settled in and learned all about camping in BEAR Country!! Our food had to be stored in a food locker that was about 65 feet from our tent, and after washing dishes our waste water had to be brought to the camp sink in the bathrooms that were about 200 feet from our tent. It was a really easy way to spend a whole day learning new rhythms of living. But really it makes you think about the life style that we live in a world of convenience. It was very easy to live this way and to conserve water and spend all our time out doors. The first misfortune that we encountered was that our camp stove broke!! Which was ok when we could cook on a fire but we did have a couple of rainy days. One morning we woke up to really bad rain and heavy winds and i think the kids were really happy that we were able to go to the parks restaurant for pancakes!! We had been living off of oatmeal and a 12 grain cereal which cooked over a camp stove comes to have this lovely smokey taste to it we added raisins, dates, and cashews yum! but i guess after days of this i could see how they would be ready for a change ;) The day before it rained we made it out on a hike to st. mary falls, virginia falls, and barring falls. The pictures will follow this post. The whole hike was about 5.7 miles and the kids did splendid until the last mile hehe alyx is really not a hiker, i put this down to his being so hot blooded he gets sweaty and tired pretty easy. But cedric wholly molly !! he can trek , man that kid was keeping us in line. He kept saying things like I Biggest! I Walking bigger! so cute. I think elijah was bored and ready to get back to his book but he really loved the water falls when we got to them. On the day of pancakes and rain we took the free shuttle that went through the park we had explored this shuttle the day before our hikes and its pretty neat! it takes you up to logans pass right up into the glaciers and the continental divide. We accross to the west side of the park where it was not stormy and sat in their lodge by the lake and just had a relaxing day. We learned a very important lesson that day. People who work at the park do not actually know about the shuttle schedule even when they are working at a booth that says "transportation information"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">We were told the shuttles run until 9 pm but when we tried to get on a shuttle back to logans pass to connect with the east side it was only 5:45 and we were told we missed the last shuttle to logans pass!! Well we are veterans of missing our train/bus whatever so we knew there was a way back to our shuttle we just had to find it (hitchhiking is not really an option with kids). So we went back to that information booth and demanded that they bring us to our camp site. We were not the only stranded people and so 3 hours later we had a ride! Not just any ride though we got to ride the red bus!! You can find more info on that on the glacier lodge web site i posted a link to above. I will also post a photo of it in a little while. The universe is not with out mercy. The storm had moved on by this time and we had a nice drive home and we got to see a baby bear! not sure where mama bear was but the baby was poking around on the side of the road. I had really hoped we were able to see a bear and i think from the car at a safe distance is a great way to experience one. The following day even though we had just spent so much time on the west i really wanted to go back there and hike the trail of cedars. The west side of glacier park is made up of the easternmost side of the rain forest that runs from montana all the way to the coast! We hiked a small trail to a large lake with waterfalls coming down on all sides it was beautiful but i was mostly happy to be frolicking through the giant cedar trees! We did this hike on our last day in the park the 4th of July. No fireworks for us but i'd say that we had a special time meeting some amazing people and learning so much about a natural wonder that wont be around forever. I would urge everyone to try and visit there! If you dont want to camp in the park you can stay in whitefish, montana and make a day trip on the west side of the park. Well the next day we were sad to pack up but i think we were also ready for the next adventure, Seattle! But before we get to excited lets remember that we were riding amtrak....we were scheduled to leave at 6:45 pm. However, we did not leave until 2 a.m. because a freight had derailed and put us behind about 8 hours!! We were fortunate to be able to stay at the lodge again while we waited. Clayton and Brian did some golfing on one of the oldest natural golf courses still around. and i did laundry yay!! hehe. The lodge was very sympathetic to our situation and supplied us with coffee and let us camp out on their couches and the boys slept by the fire. It really could have been worse. The train ride was not so bad except that we had the same crew that we travelled with before and i think they must hate their job (i dont blame them). but still they could learn to relax and at least be courteous. Because we were so behind schedule we stopped in spokane and they put us all on buses to carry us from spokane to either portland or seattle. I have to say that sitting on a packed bus while sleep deprived with three kids is maybe not my most favorite things in the world. Did i mention the air wasn't working either? that was a very hot long bus ride but all the folks on the bus were really nice and i think we all had this attitude like we are in this together! We made it to Seattle in the early evening and found our hotel with out to much issue we stayed in hotel hostel in Fremont Seattle which is one of the neatest communities i have ever been in! I am going to leave the story here because i need to go help with dinner. But i will let everyone know more about our time in Seattle soon. Just to let you all know we are on our first farm in Mt. Vernon we are safe we are very happy and all is going well. We will write more soon. Love to you all <3</span>Bohemian Harvesthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05595115023528031801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728430584278586269.post-65943324396458857322012-06-27T05:32:00.001-07:002012-06-27T05:32:35.040-07:00PhotosSome photos of union station , Chicago, the view out my train window...and a sweet sleeping boy.

<br />
we started our journey with crepes and coffee and love from a good sister. Then we had our last good bye from friends sending us off at local sprouts. my mother and sister said goodbye to us at the train station and there were tears and hugs for all. We have a addition to our party!! My brother brian is joining us for part of our trip! We are taking him camping, and then on to seattle where we will stay over night in the hostel and send him on a plane back to maine the following day. We are so grateful that there were so many people supporting us on this trip. i cant tell you how many times i heard people tell us they wished they could come with us, i think it would have filled the train if they all could have come :) We made it to boston and got on the T to our hotel with ease and the boys enjoyed the ride despite the fact that they unanimously had to pee as we were getting on the subway! Thanks to my dad we had a very nice hotel right around the corner from the T exit and with warm weather, travel worn hearts and full bladders, we went up to our hotel. Did you know they have very nice cookies that they give everyone who stays at the doubletree? We were hoping to explore boston but travel at a childs pace is slow and exploratory. we made it to dinner at least! i believe the place was called vapiano and it was amazing and totally changed my opinion about the food in boston which up till now i understood to be greasy and lackluster. after dinner we walked around looking for a bookstore but having no luck decided to get back to the hotel for bed. our last night with lots of fluffy white pillows i was grateful for the rest. Namaste, Nicole<br />
<br />
This morning we woke to find that the day looked like rain and we had to boogie out the door if we were to avoid walking in rain . yea that did not happen, more to follow on that note. So we went to breakfast in the hotel restaurant and all ate very well to prepare for the day. everything was going well and we were on schedule until clayton and i got stumped on the packing of food and transitioning some weight around in our packs. however we knew we were only a few blocks from the station and were not panicked. we left our hotel room with half an hour to travel the 10 min. it takes to get to the station...however we forgot about the rain! we tried to get onto the T to get to the station with out getting wet however we could not seem to figure out the purchase of tickets and made the dire mistake of turning out of the station and trying to walk with 3 kids, while wearing heavy packs and trying to use our iphone to navigate unfamiliar streets in one of the worst downpours i have ever been in. I have to say however that i have the most amazing children in the world. Sensing our situation they not only did not complain but they trekked through it all and kept our pace sloshing through puddles! our iphone had a hard time working the gps ( i am assuming because of the rain). So we were having to stop a lot to check it. You would think that some one could have helped us out but we were in china town and the only souls out on the streets were not speaking english! However we made it to the station 5 min. before the train was scheduled to leave and started running. I found out later that clayton and brian got there with the train still there (we were only 50 feet behind them) and the guy said they were not going to wait for us and as we caught up to them the train took off. I realize the train waits for no one but i felt that the early departure and the fact that we were clearly right there was overwhelming. I had never run so hard and fast in my life with an extra 80 lbs of weight on me in the pouring rain in an unfamiliar place with all my little babes did not leave me in a good place mentally i was shaking! and then to find out that the next available train to get us to glacier national park did not leave till the following week put me through a little bit of hell. So i called my mom. There are not many worse things to injure your pride than to be a woman grown and having to call your parents and admit failure due to incompetence. She however has a very cool mind and is a savy traveller. I think i should start asking wwmd from now on. She suggested i rent a car and drive to albany to catch the next train on our route. genius! I called AAA, bless them and after i told them my story they booked a rental for us. So we hopped on the bus to the air port and then caught the shuttle to budget rentals. Easy right? we had 5 hours to drive to albany and it only took three. WELL let me confess my disgust with the way systems work nowadays...you MUST have a credit card. ew. or if you dont you must have good credit ew ew ew. for those people reading this blog thinking that this is some way to protect the car rental companies from harm i would like you to be stranded with 3 kids your husband and a teenage brother that you are responsible for and then tell me what you think when no one can budge for emergencies. Enterprise would have budged had they cars available, i prefer enterprise and tried them first but alas no mini vans! So with some crazy money maneuvering that required me to go to the part of boston that resembled latin america where no one speaks english either but have some big saintly hearts and were willing to help in small ways that made a big difference to me.I was able to fix the situation and get back to my family in rental car land. However, by the time i made it back we lost the opportunity to catch the train in Albany!! Clayton already made this realization and had decided that we were to drive to chicago instead. Mind you this is 16 hours driving straight to make our train the following day!! holy moly batman this is where i am now as i write this, riding into the night with my family. You might say its been a bad day. It was. But the boys are watching movies and we are staying calm with our starbucks and listening to them laugh at scooby doo. I am writing this to you in my notes on the ipad and will post them when next i get to a wifi connection. Wish us luck! ~Namaste, Nicole<br />

Yes. But still, Relevent. We are only a few weeks away from hitting the train tracks and still we have a lot to prepare for. We are officially out of our apartment as of June 1st. and are fortunate to have friends who love us and want to visit with us before we leave. The last few weeks have been a test to my sanity. I mean if trying to let go of ones possesions and planning a trip of these proportions were not enough i am also a mother of three boys so sanity is always questionable. However, there is also Life's sense of humor to deal with. For instance while packing i opened the door to our bathroom to find that it was raining from the ceiling. Not funny 'HaHa'. Oh geez, well that is no longer my concern thank goodness. But then we had the pond that the rain grew for us in my friends back yard the week i was supposed to camp in it...yea i will post pics of that soon. Well if these are the tribulations i face to get closer to the earth and her mysteries i will take them gladly. No matter that i am lonely while my husband stays closer to work i am still resolute in this desicion. Its amazing when you have a purpose in your heart and everything pans out to allow something to happen. You have to just laugh at all the trials along the way. That is life, yes? Do not misread me, it is hard and i am frustrated but i know that these things will pass. A good friend of mine taught me a mantra of 'ease, and abundance' and its that simple. Sometimes you just have to let go of expectations and let life work for you. At the same time planting your seeds and tending your garden. Am i being a little too unclear? It will make sense some day just keep breathing deeply. For now know that i will wander the earth and i would love for you to join me on your own adventure. Until you get to that place when you are able to walk into your own life, i will share my stories/trials/and tribulations with you. With much love for the divine in you, Namaste. ~Nicole G.</span>Bohemian Harvesthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05595115023528031801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728430584278586269.post-6155948512923180452012-06-07T06:29:00.000-07:002012-06-07T06:30:12.743-07:00Two Lights<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We are saying good bye to the east coast. All our lives are now further in the hands of fate. We are no longer attached to an apartment or a car. And are looking forward to the coming months. These are some photos of us at two lights which is our favorite place in the portland area....<3<br />

So we are finished with our farm plans for the months of July & August! whew ok now on to California & New Mexico for September and October. Thanks to the folks who wrote references for us, you are the bees knees :o)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Other than the planning that we have been doing for the actual trip we are also hard at work selling & giving our belongings to people. We still need to sell our car! So lots to do still and its so hard when the weather is this nice ;) at least the boys are out enjoying this spring heat wave!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have most of our 'gear' (it feels funny saying this after reading Bill Bryson's Walk in the woods hehe) And really only need sleeping bags for the boys and clayton's shoes.. and a water filter...oh yea and...i guess the list goes on. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am going to try to get in the habit of writing a daily journal on here so that people can know step by step how we are doing things...this may take time getting used to so please be patient. Also, if you have any questions please feel free to ask them in the comments section.</div>

Now its time to make the commitment and start contacting each and every one of them. I am happy to see so many in Washington state since that is where i am hoping to spend the bulk of our early summer. It is interesting to note how different the farms are from state to state. We will certainly be getting a broad idea of the country side. I am a little nervous about conntacting people. It feels a little like marketing myself but I am ready to make the leap of faith.Bohemian Harvesthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05595115023528031801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728430584278586269.post-11618765282365288612012-02-26T11:34:00.000-08:002012-02-26T13:40:23.698-08:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

the 'Book' is in!

My Husband (Clayton), Myself(Nicole), and our three sons: Elijah(8), Alyxander(4), Cedric(2). Will be travelling by train this summer to experience for ourselves the interconnected world in which we live. This blog will be a testament to our journey. If ever there is to be any change in this world it will start here in 2012, an auspicious year. We feel very strongly that we are raising a new generation who will need a different outlook on life than what can be gathered by the assembly line of thought this western culture has produced. The plan is to travel from Portland, ME to Seattle, WA with a stop in Montana's glacier national park. We will then proceed down the pacific coast to AZ, NM, and then arrive at the doorstep of our friends and family in Austin, TX. All this is hoped to be done by means of the WWOOF program, faith, love, and as much patience two people can maintain with three wily little manimals. We will chronicle all the steps along the way here to maybe be an inspiration that the only limitations are the ones you set for yourself....and the sky is the limit. </div>
