    Another beautifully filmed, produced and performed (guitar) video. Thanks for sharing all the beauty in so many ways. You gave us a peak of, I presume, Kellys new rig and I see a bicycle rack on the back and no Sur Ron electric motorcycle. I am so curious to hear from Kelly regarding her thoughts when planning the purchase of the old rig setup and then her thoughts on why she wanted to change to the new rig setup. And then the pros and cons of each setup. I realize it is impossible to 100% predict beforehand what setup will be best for oneself and it's even harder to predict what a person will grow into or out of after time on the road. It would be really interesting to hear Kelly's story on all of these decisions. Of course there is no right or wrong but having some of the unique insights into the evolution of the decision making process would be great. I hope someday she will share some of this knowledge with a video or a blog or maybe through you? If there is already something written or tapped about this please steer me in that direction. Thank You.

      I've been hiking and backpacking southern Arizona for 40 years. I've had a couple very rare encounters. The last thing border crossers want is to be seen and they are good at pulling that off. The only time I've feared for my life was when a bunch of yahoos were out there playing cowboy and shooting indiscriminately into the desert.
