day 3 sign holding

this is krystee speaking.today we held signs on the side of the road for 5 hours today. i would have never envisioned myself doing such a thing, but it turned out to be an amazing experience.5 hours thinking, exploring my memories, singing songs,writing new ones, listening to my dear friends make their beautiful music.we r going to do it for 2 more days and then we will depart from austin.and drive to el paso. we met these girls that rode bicycles from winnepeg to new orleans....they went much the same path as we did and met many of the same people and went to the same places..............we have spent alot of time with them and it has been amazing............very leisurely we got to experience the past week or so together...these girls have shown us how to take dumpster food and turn it into amazing delicious meals.we have rode bikes alot over many a hill and thru many a climate change.it will be 70 or 80 degrees in the afternoon and then drop to 30 by night.we spent the last week or so parked outside of this place called bio squat.we gave the girls a ride home after a show and the place they were staying was an amazing secret spot in the woods.........the people that lived there invited us to stay awhile.....and we did.i had been craving a mountain experience or some quiet nature time.i feel blessed by the moments i spent there..........we didn't even know what we were looking for and found something amazing and out of this world.......that seems to be a reoccurring theme in my experiences this far......i just keep being led into situations where we meet amazing people,new friends, get magically provided for, and see places i could have never imagined, and welcomed into peoples environments............of course there has been many moments where i felt out of place, scared, lonley, homesick.....unsure what i was looking for, but all woven in and out of these feelings is a sense of wonder at what unfolds.......i could have always said that,things always happen before my eyes and leave me in a state of wonder.i couldn't have it any other way.but this time on the bus is pulling and stretching me and showering me with beautiful moments.............

and i think of so many people i love so often..........it also amazes me that i know all of u that i do know..............i am blessed.i am.i am.

2 more days to think.and then we will move on again.
