A few selections from the many pages of journals I began on my first move to the West when I lived for four years in Cedar City, Utah in an off-grid log cabin. I worked in Zion National Park and was grateful that my backyard bordered seemingly endless BLM lands. They were the haunts of coyotes and cattle, herds of sheep, and cowboys on horseback. Textured with arroyos and pottery shards, I spent countless hours exploring them.
