Featuring: My Journey Along the National Scenic Ice Age Trail
Among the waves of change,
I've got mountains to climb...
My Story:
Hi! My name is Holly, and I'm a workaholic...
But deep down inside,
I'm a nature lover, an adventurer, and an explorer.
I'm an artist, a poet, a philosopher, and a wannabe photographer.
I am determined, ambitious, and sometimes a bit hard-headed.
I'm pretty much a damn mountain goat!
I'm a mountain goat living in the Midwest with an existence full of obligations and responsibilities, and I am on a quest to find balance and harmony among being a hard-working business woman, a compassionate and devoted mother and wife, and a gypsy soul on a never ending search for peace, wisdom, and eloquence in this rat-race we call life.
To be continued...
So it begins...
Is it a beginning,
or is it an end?
As the cold rushes over me,
it's becoming harder to see.
Harder to see the truth within...
Harder to see with clarity...

In the presence of reality,
a fantasy world is poised before me.
While two worlds collide in perfect harmony,
I feel my soul slowly breaking free.
Free to soar.
Free to breathe.
Free to escape what burdens me...

Into the fog you go.
A new place to call home.
As I hear it calling your name,
its smokey essence is
calming yet untamed.
No one knows when
the fog will subside,
so, for now,
in your heart
is where I'll hide.
