Congratulations, Liz, on overcoming a challenge. Since you are not the only person with ADD who may be doing sitspot, perhaps some day you could share your specific strategies and inner experiences which i bet would benefit this with and without ADD!

Wow Chris, this is amazing! I'm still reading, but your set up, concepts, and vision for this developing project looks spot on. I'll keep exploring, can't wait to see what the community brings up. -Liz

So to update: I am in Anake, have a sit spot right behind the house here and love it! I've been going out every morning and learning so much. The other day I had a dipper come and sing at my feet. It was wonderful. Thank you Anake for getting me hoo…

I love the idea of using Owl Eyes to monitor the green flies! You'll become a bird in no time! Good luck- I know these sit spot challenges can be hard. I think we have all faced them. Don't give up and NO GUILT!

Liz Crain commented on Laurie Nelson Alexander's group 'Sit Spot'
I had a really good sit spot last night here in Oklahoma. My grandparents live on a golf cours and I went for a walk at dusk with my dog. We found a very nice little hill overlooking a small pond on one side, and some grass lands on the other. I wat…

Angel Fire NM (4th leg)

I'm in a beautiful part of the country right now. Angel Fire New Mexico has been my father's favored retreat from the summer heat of Oklahoma for about 30 years. He would occasionally bring my brother and I on the 9 hour drive into the mountains to stay in a large house near the golf course. I have never enjoyed golf. My dad and younger brother would head to the country club while I waded in the nearby stream catching frogs, fish, and an occasional crawdad. We would all fish together, but what r… Continue

Down Time in Oklahoma (third leg)

The 12 hr. push to St. Louis was not too bad. Since it's the longest drive I should have on the trip, I'm glad it's in the past now. Visiting my Godfather was great. Duke has been a wonderful mentor in my life, especially as I was growing into early teen hood back in Texas. Afrer a day of rest I pressed on into Oklahoma, my birthplace. Watching the white rock of MO turn into the red earth of my native state was comforting. The stifeling heat wave that accompanied such vivid color was not.

First Leg: PA

I drove 8 hrs yesterday to arrive here in Shippensburg PA to stay with friends for a couple of nights. We went on a hike and I touched a beautiful black mountain rattler on the trail. Blueberries are also in season here, this pleases me, as they are not out yet in Vermont, New Hampshire, or Massachusetts.
Before I headed out, I took time to travel to The Whites with a friend for some final New England backpacking. It was a tough first evening on the trail. The amount of rain this summer has left… Continue
