This may not look like much, but the story behind it is kinda funny. Known as a hard worker, B started working with her uncle in a restaurant in Hurricane, Arizona when she was only twelve years old. That gave her the experience to eventually help open a Chester Fried Chicken at the Crick when…
This is where B. went to school. Still barred by fences at the time of our trip, students hadn’t walked the halls since it was closed over a decade before. It was a public school, but somehow the leaders were able to change much of the curriculum to reflect and support the beliefs of the…
I promised more tidbits…so here’s the deal: We’ve been eating too much…and chocolate, well, I guess that’s out too. Fresh air is good, though. and we are more likely to catch a cold during this time. How come no one ever told me this? Hmm. I no longer have my uterus, so I can’t actually…
I love, love, love that I have been able to read through this ! It’s pretty cool. Passed down to B.from her mother when she was “ready to know”, this little booklet is a sweet treasure. It was given to B.’s mother when she was “ready to know” in 1961 by B’s Grandmother. How sweet!…

On our trip to Colorado City we stopped to take pictures of the unusual landscape. This mushroom rock is over three times my height. I felt like I was on a whole different planet. Just to my left, almost outside of the picture, was a quaint roadside market. A beautiful Native American lady was selling…
The 80’s were fun. The music. The color. The hair… B. didn’t get to enjoy any of it the first time around, so she had an 80’s-themed party for her 30th birthday. This picture was taken right around the time we really got serious about writing The Crick…
Arizona never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I’ve seen all of its beauty, I see something in a new way. On our way to Colorado City, we stopped to take it all in. It’s not hard to understand why the FLDS chose to relocate in this area so many years ago.
I am giddy! It doesn’t seem real. But it is! We have officially been accepted to launch our Kick Starter for the book.
