A platform created to share my thoughts and lessons learned as I take on the most challenging chapter of my life.  I've traded in palm trees for pine trees and I'm now setting out to create a magical corner of the world. Without the support of a family, but with an affinity for wildlife and a magical relationship with moose, Im chasing the dream of creating a much needed moose rehabilitation retreat to provide medical care and love to North Idaho's treasured moose population. With all the growth we are experiencing economically, the forested acres are being leveled for homes and shopping centers and the moose are more challenged than ever before to thrive and raise their babies. This is where my next chapter begins. I've formed a lot of opinions along the way with regard to family, love, and loss.  Every challenge and every loss has brought me here.
