Spring’s in the air and if you’ve got any sap left, it’s rising and you’ve thought of running away. Here are some thoughts on just chucking it all and taking to the road.
Also on tap, three upcoming “Hoofing It” programs, about what it’s like to cross North Carolina with a mule.

What’s the last thing you hear before you drift off to sleep? A car? The TV? Your spouse snoring? Tonight, I want you to hear day’s end in my wagon world. That would be the sound of a mule chomping away in the night.

Saturday, January 26: The Newfoundlander program scheduled this morning at the Caldwell County Public Library has been cancelled. Conditions – an in inch of ice on the roads – were just a little too Newfoundland-ish. The program has been rescheduled for Saturday, March 2 at 1:30p.

Howdy. Just wanted to let everyone know mule Polly and I have arrived safely back in North Carolina. The drive from Newfoundland to the Tar Heel State took a week. The plan now is to spend the holidays with our respective families – me with my human kith and kin, Polly with the Mule Nation. Then, in that Will the Circle Be Unbroken kind of way, we may set out again. We’ll keep you posted. Cheers!

Since June, mule Polly and I have been traveling across Newfoundland in our little red wagon. We’ve started our mornings with black flies, horse flies and nippers – mosquitoes as they call them in these parts. Lately, it’s been frost, not warm sunshine, that’s greeted us at dawn. Time to load Polly and her wagon into the trailer and head south. We’ll keep you posted of the journey back to North Carolina.

Not the way I’d planned to end my voyage across Newfoundland. After over 1000 km of wagon travel, about 5 km from our final destination, a vehicle collided into the rear of my wagon. Mule Polly, the driver and I are okay. More details are here…
