Good by to North Dakota

So with the fact that I am officially leaving North Dakota I thought I'd leave and ode, well maybe not an ode but a post. While not difficult to leave it does give my some mixed feelings. I have met some really interesting foalks up here but it is time to move to another chapter. Will I miss the wind. No! The scenery yes but I can always visit or move back in time that is the thinking about life nothing is very permanent, it ebbs and flows and if you are a wanderer like me it can take you many places and have many chapters. So as I leave this treeless plain for a hopefully more wooded part of the world it will be interesting to to look back. Having lived in many parts of the state and meeting what I am sure is at least one tenth of the population it will be tough not to look back. So to the plain good by! See you someday. To most of the people good by. To some good riddance. it is always interesting to start a new chapter and this will be a big new start.

Well I'll leave some beauty but I've always been able to find beauty where ever I land and hopefully I 'll find more beauty in my travels. Hell maybe I'll find the beauty I'll call home for the rest of my life, maybe the beauty I'm looking for to accompany me on my travels. It will all be interesting. So long Bad Lands, so long blowing dirt, so long folks and so long blizzards.

So like they say, "When you are on you own not speaking out is like fight alone and that is the worst damned way to fight." Well I quit not speaking out and lost both fights off to a new one.
