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”
Recovery
Sunny warm days make it all better. Hey. It’s been a while. How have you been? I’ve been struggling for a bit. I haven’t updated this in a while. After my last post in September, work and life got busy and I pushed a lot of my projects to the back burner. Then on NovemberContinueContinue reading “Recovery”
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”
Day Hikes & Baby Wipes: Fort Niobrara NWR
I really enjoy hiking at the refuge in my back yard! He had a bug on his hat… Now that I’m feeling more like myself I took myself on a self prescribed hike with my 2 year old and 3 week old. It was wonderful! Little video and TikTok plug…
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.
Time Flies When You’re (not) Having Fun
Open’s an eye and looks around– is summer over yet? Almost. Time officially got away from me. Most of that is due to taking on a temporary promotion at work and having more duties as assigned. It’s starting to slow done but the ride isn’t over yet. Vacation in the Ozarks— Current River style. OtherContinueContinue reading “Time Flies When You’re (not) Having Fun”
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”
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”
Take a Hike
It’s National Take a Hike Day! Rocky Falls! I took this picture I think in 2009. And I had to work… and I’m taking a shift on the ambulance so I have to be ready to respond. So no hikes for me… Dammit. But if you have a chance, go take a hike! Well, becauseContinueContinue reading “Take a Hike”
Wannabe on the Trail: Influencing
I’ve been thinking a lot lately— inspired by a documentary. Imagine that. Anyways, I watched Fake Famous. It’s an interesting look at how we view influencing and a social experiment into how to become a mega influencer. Me, trying to be “on brand” I related the most with Chris but I don’t think I deserveContinueContinue reading “Wannabe on the Trail: Influencing”
Return to Girl, Take a Hike
I really want to go hike on a beach somewhere. It’s been an insane week already. It’s also starting to get cold. I don’t like it. Well, I do but it’s a weird toxic love hate relationship with cold weather. The snow makes it so pretty. Luckily, we only had a little light dusting ofContinueContinue reading “Return to Girl, Take a Hike”
