Frontiers

Blogs, Facebook pages, Etsy stores, flickr, ezines, paypal


I use to think I knew my way around the world wide web, but what I've discovered is that Im what you'd call a newbie.


I have always wished to live during the frontier days.  Exploring new terrain, scavenging for gold, and a constant barrage of new challenges is a domain I would thrive in.


Now I find myself on the brink of a new wave of frontiers-people as an artisan entrepreneur on the world wide web.  
Where might it lead ? . . .


"May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end, meandering through pastoral valleys tinkling with bells, past temples and castles and poets' towers into a dark primeval forest where tigers belch and monkeys howl, through miasmal and mysterious swamps and down into a desert of red rock, blue mesas, domes and pinnacles and grottos of endless stone, and down again into a deep vast ancient unknown chasm where bars of sunlight blaze on profiled cliffs, where deer walk across the white sand beaches, where storms come and go as lightning clangs upon the high crags, where something strange and more beautiful and more full of wonder than your deepest dreams waits for you beyond the next turning of the canyon walls." -Edward Abbey
