About Me:
I love life! I have incredible friends & family whom I value very much. I love to travel & am excited to be blessed with the opportunity to go on this tour. I know that it is a luxury to be able to take 2 months off of work for such a thing & still have a job to go back to.
I love to cook, sing, be with people I love, laugh, & spending time outside... whenever possible.
I enjoy simple pleasures, a good cup of Evening in Missoula (tea) & the smell of fresh rain, fresh herbs, freshly mowed lawns... so I enjoy having a keen sense of smell. (weird eh?)

Catching up

Jesse & I were privileged to be a part of the van recovery team last night. That meant we got in at three in the morning. All the others were going to be rolling out at 7 to beat the heat. We decided that for our own good we weren't going to be able to start the ride with everyone else. We slept in the van until lunch when we joined the rest of the team.
I get such a kick out of the terrain! Hypothetically, if we were on a road trip through this area a year ago & you told me I was going… Continue

The Van

Today the van broke down just after lunch. I am not going to go into detail about all of that because I am sure the others will. I would however like to make mention of a few amazing people that helped us along the way.
By the grace of God we were right by the ranger station when we heard of the van breaking down. Jesse & I were put in charge of figuring out the vehicle situation because we are the ones with AAA. You should know, however, that if you're ever going to take a cross country tri… Continue

We're not in Kansas anymore

I can’t believe it’s here. We are currently driving out west toward California. We just pulled out of the Cenex station in Sterling, CO. It’s starting to look less and less like the plains states that I am from. Trust me, rolling hills look differently when you realize you are going to have to ride your bike up and down them all day in about a week. We’ll get through it though. As Linda at work says, “Last time I checked, we serve an almighty God.” I think I should consider writing that one on t… Continue

Thank you for sharing in Little Rock, Arkansas this weekend. You guys are awesome! It was both inspiring and convicting to hear you speak and to know that you are giving up so much to better the lives of people you don't even know.

Know that Little Rock will be lifting up prayers all the way to the finish. Love you all....

Brianne,
I was sitting here in the office and the song "His Eye is on the Sparrow" was on my heart. You know how it goes...why shound I feel discouraged....I can actually hear you sing it in my spirit and it
perks me up today!!
So sorry to hear about Matt's father. our prayers are with him.
Love,
Mom

Hi Bri,
I've been leaving my comments on the Network page. Have you got them? Or am I suppose to put them on this page? I just found this tonite. I've been out all day long on errands and meetings.
Prayed for you a long time this morning. The Lord impressed on me Isaiah 43: 18-21 NIV, in case you didn't see it.
I love you. Give Jesse a hug for us as well.
Love,
Mom

those are two great quotes. i mean, obviously, since aaron even wrote a blog about them! and things are going so much better for me! i am still getting the hang of everything, but im doing better at life, and that is helping. sorry about the traffic and the direct tv van. i hope that all gets better, and your weather!

yeah the "clipless" thing is starting to make sense now. i havent gotten the hang of it yet. but maybe that will happen soon. also, thanks for the encouragement on the blog. i think im doing better now just with my outlook. i have found as i talk about it more, it totally pumps me up, and now when people say im crazy and i cant do this, then i remember, yes i am crazy, and i know i cant do it, but Christ in me can, and will. so, it's a good thing to go through for me, i think. how is everything going over there? still freezing?
