Seattle, WA

DJ is hunkered down in Seattle,WA. She is getting Big Bertha ready for the trip down the west coast. She would like to extend a very special thank you to whoever slipped the eagle necklace/good luck charm into her gear somewhere along the way. DJ has always felt a deep connection to the earth and was truly touched by this simple gesture. Like the eagle DJ soars free through this great nation of ours. Until next time.... God Bless.

Day 110, and over 23,000 miles traveled!

When I spoke to DJ tonight she was in Williams Lake, BC and had about 30 miles to go before she would shut things down for the night. Last night at her campsite she said the temperature dropped to a nippy 37 degrees. We talked about some of the questions that people have asked her along the way. She said the biggest question that women ask is "Are you scared?" Her response is, fear is not an option. When you make up your mind to do something like this, you have got to be prepared. You have to have the right equipment, your bike has to be mechanically sound, but most importantly you have to be physically and mentally prepared for whatever challenge presents itself. When you stop to think about it, DJ is a stranger in every town she travels through. She must deal with ever changing road and weather conditions, traffic, rude people and on occasions large potentially dangerous animals. There is no time for daydreaming. If you lose focus you could die. Now some of you are going to say, " Wow that's a bit intense isn't it?" Your damn Skippy it is! This isn't a game to DJ. She's laying it on the line because she believes in what she is doing and wants to make a difference. Nothing worthwhile comes easy! Until next time.............God Bless..

DJ finishes the Alaskan Highway!!

DJ is finally off the road from hell, and is continuing her trek Southward. She would like to thank Dwayne and Roxanne from the Northgate Bucking Horse Executive Camp And Lodge for their generosity and hospitality. This will make the 4th time DJ has traveled the Alaskan Hwy. For most folks once would be enough! But then again, DJ isn't like most folks! Until next time...God Bless. Updated by DJ 's husband Mark.

Toad River, BC

On the way from Iron Creek to her stopping point at a campsite in Toad River, DJ spotted buffalo and some mountain goats. The folks at the campsite she is staying at tonight said they had a huge bull moose stroll through camp this morning. DJ would once again like to thank Susan and Dave from the Iron Creek Lodge for their hospitality. Also thanks to Rick for his kind donation. In addition DJ would like to thank the special folks who shared their dinner with her tonight. I would like to say thank you to our good friend Jan for her wonderful donation today. Until next time .... God Bless. Updated by DJ's husband Mark.
