Cross Posted on my Substack: Prairie River Witch Newsletter After my near miss last year, I’m living with a no regrets policy. I’m also going to “start over” and branch out a little more. I still intend to follow through with the basis of this page– wannabe backpacking, but right now where I’m going (chasingContinueContinue reading “A Spell for Starting Over (Sandhills Edition)”

From the Ozarks to the Sandhills
A Wandering Witch with Coffee & Camera Notes from the Edge of the Map Hey y’all, ~Let me reintroduce myself~ I’m BJ Roshone – a barefoot wanderer raised in the wild green hills of the Ozarks, now chasing light and stories in the Nebraska Sandhills. Most days, you’ll find me with a camera in oneContinueContinue reading “From the Ozarks to the Sandhills”
2024 Goals
Harvest Moon, September 18, 2024 I started writing this in January– it’s now September. Oddly enough, this year I spent a lot of time in my head. I took pictures and video– wrote a little bit of poetry, that was about it in the writing realm– and working on the Pennington Book Project. I thinkContinueContinue reading “2024 Goals”
Flashback Friday: Blue Spring
~Day Hikes and Baby Wipes~ I’m sorry for the hiatus but the new baby distracted me from a lot of things *cough— writing—cough* over the last two months. Now that I’m recovered from the c-section, lack of sleep, and visiting family I’m starting to get my writing bug back. I’ve been posting to my poetryContinueContinue reading “Flashback Friday: Blue Spring”
Wannabe Asleep
Is it still 2023? I have no recollection of being this tired with my first child but our newest little adventurer is taking it out of me. Also say hello to my new hiking buddy! Newest hiking buddy! It also doesn’t help that the oldest slightly bigger adventurer is 2 and doesn’t have an offContinueContinue reading “Wannabe Asleep”
Flashback Friday: Glacier National Park August 2022
Flashback Friday!
I’m getting my groove back and writing again. All the projects I’ve procrastinated on I’m finally getting done!
Here is my overview of hiking in Glacier NP.
Current River Mood
Well, we just survived a four…five… almost a whole week blizzard and now another week of horrible wind chills… thank you winter storms Diaz and Elliot. Followed by another round of snow. We needed the moisture but I’m so over four-foot drifts and slick roads. So. Much. Snow. I was teleworking from home for someContinueContinue reading “Current River Mood”
New Year, (semi) New Me
I haven’t posted in the last few days– holidays, weddings, and driving through a winter storm had my attention focused elsewhere. Me trying to be glamourous at Deer Park Manor in Indiana for a wedding. Driving in a winter storm… go slow and don’t rush! I’ve also been working on finishing up a couple ofContinueContinue reading “New Year, (semi) New Me”
Flashback Friday: Smokey Mountains National Park June 2017
Starting a new thing– Flashback Fridays! I’ll take a few moments to talk about a hike, trip, or adventure. I can think about warmer days and get into a habit of posting every week. It’s a win, win! For my first Flashback Friday I’m going to talk about probably my favorite trip ever…so far… ThoseContinueContinue reading “Flashback Friday: Smokey Mountains National Park June 2017”
Wannabe on the Trail: Side Hustles & Small Business
Hey all! I don’t know if it’s the millennial mindset or just the ADHD talking but I keep trying to find new ways to make my hobbies pay for themselves. I like hiking and thought taking photos and writing about it would be fun. Probably not a high paying niche but fun. Once I startedContinueContinue reading “Wannabe on the Trail: Side Hustles & Small Business”
Baby Wipes & Day Hikes: Big Spring Trail
Sunset on the Current River, Missouri. I got to go home over Thanksgiving. I had a week to show my son around my hometown, hunt, spend time with family, and hike. Hunter has been there back in February but that was a quick trip and we didn’t do a lot of exploring. I should haveContinueContinue reading “Baby Wipes & Day Hikes: Big Spring Trail”
