Thinking back yesterday, I realized that I have had this dream of cycling across Canada since I was 32.
At 32 years of age, my husband and I separated when our daughters were 11, 12, and 13. That was when I first got the idea to cycle across Canada on the TransCanada Highway with the three girls cycling with me. I had thought we would try it within 5 years.
Well, that didn't happen as other things in our lives became more important.
Soon, I will have the freedom to do so, albeit alone, and on a wonderful trail called the TransCanadaTrail.
I have become very comfortable with doing things alone, and am sure to enjoy the trip.
I am so fortunate and so thankful to at least have the chance.

I hope you do this Karen, and I hope you visit your beautiful daughters out west. I have had the great pleasure of meeting both Terri and Chrissey. I have fallen very much in love with your middle daughter Veronica who I have known now for about two and one half years. She is beautiful and deep and fiercely determined to find meaning in her life. I found your blog quite by accident by googling her name and soon realized that her mother was the author. She mentioned that you were wanting to ride across Canada but didn't tell me about this blog. I will put it in my bookmarks and try to read it all. I hope you do make this journey as I suspect it could be quite healing.

Greg l : hopefully Veronica is nothing like her mother for she’s a poor example of a human being always playing the victim she lies cheats and steals!
