I never thought I'd be back in the high desert so soon. But we have found work, and we leave today to go work on a farm near Joshua Tree National Park. It was the very first certified organic Jojoba farm in the world, and is still the only one in California. My friend Boomer hooked us up with the job, and we jumped at the opportunity. It is supposedly hard work....it is on commission, so the harder you work, the more money you make. We plan to work for a week or two, then head for Mexico and Latin America once we have some money saved up.
This also may be the last blog entry for the Road Less Traveled. I have decided not to bring my computer along with me, in an effort to force myself to live with the bare essentials. It will also cut down on weight in my backpack. I am still going to be writing all the time, only now I am going to be using an old-fashioned pen and notebook. Who knows, maybe I will try to publish a book some day.
You can still get a hold of me by email, or any of the other social networking sites. I am also going to start writing more letters to people, so don't be surprised if you get something in the mail. Thank you to everyone who was interested enough to read my writing, and so long for now.

I've bad timing if you're gone from here, but I'll try anyways. I just stumbled upon your blog and photos and I'm so terrifically impressed. Your photography is beautiful. It's like the light becomes more beautiful on the water after passing through the lens of your camera. I really wish you could come out by where I live and photograph some seascapes that I'm more familiar with. Your blogs are also amazing. My favorite one is this one and I'm absolutely glued to it. Your work plan sounds enticing. I wish I could be there with you! This is all so moving; I feel like I could gush on for pages but I will spare you that haha. All the best to you. I feel like I've been looking my whole life for people like you and now I'll sleep a little easier knowing you're out there somewhere, probably with your feet wet in Latin American saltwater.
Blessings,

WOW, thank you Asena!! It is compliments like these that make me want to keep my blog going and further pursue my passions for writing, photography, and traveling. I am so inspired by the way you are inspired!
Fortunately, I may keep this blog going. I have still been writing more than ever, but have not been able to share it with anyone yet. I am going to put up a few more recent journal entries from my travels. Keep an eye out for more frequent updates as soon as I get a computer. Thanks again!
