I moved back to Colorado and Travis and I prepared for having the Tipi. We finished what he had been working on while i was away and leveled the land in the sand pit Trav had built out of old telephone beams. We also built a nice wood storage shed outside of where the Tipi door would be placed facing East.

The Tipi arrived and we learned how to heat and ourselves and through trial and error we experimented with three heat sources. Waking up to silhouettes of the windmill and falling asleep to owls were among some of my favorite moments on Blacktail.

I got a job working at a health club doing childcare with rich high energy children and Travis continued to act in various forms in the Denver area. Our chill lives were constantly being challenged by outward sources - such as my being hit by a car while biking to work (still dont remember any of it, only waking up in the hospital confused and with kind nurses around me).

After a great time with friends and lovely moments living in our awe-inspiring home, the call of the road got to me bad and i couldn't be in the environment i was daily placed in anymore. So off we went in time for the holidays with questions of where the road would lead exciting my every step.
