"You're getting older. Your journey's been etched on your skin." James Blunt & Mark Batson, 1973, All the Lost Souls. The first time I heard this song, it made me stop and think about my life and my own journey. What all has been etched on my skin? What is still waiting to be etched? This blog is about the Traveling Hillbilly's journey. Please travel along and share your own journey. There's no better way to learn about life, about others, about ourselves, than by traveling the globe.

A Great Morning Run
There's nothing like getting up and running before most of the world has awaken. The Traveling Hillbilly recommends running first thing in the morning when on vacation. It gives you a chance to explore your new surroundings in the calm, peace and quiet of the day. This morning, as I rounded the corner for my second lap around the trail, I spotted a deer. We looked at each other, paused for a moment and then just watched one another. Surprisingly the deer didn't run away. She kept a close eye on me as she proceeded to graze, but stayed close. Just one of those magical moments that make you realize how inconsequential most of the things we stress about everyday truly are.
