| SouthWest Adventure. 2300 miles in 8 days through Mountains, sand storms and vortexes. ... My goal in life : to arrive at the destination with the dust of the journey on my cheeks. This Journey literally put dust on my cheeks and spirit in my blood. I will never be the same and there is no turning back. The images here capture my emotion, my reverence and my epiphanies along the dusty road of my own life journey.
