Howdy folks!
Thanks for coming to my blog! Here at @wheelie-trail-blazed I post the poems I write during my adventures in nature.
My goal for 2024, inspired by the Write Out campaign via the National Writing Project x National Parks Service collab, is to visit as many parks, beaches, trails, etc. outdoors as I can. This blog is not associated with either organization, but I want to give credit where credit is due.
I pay special attention to accessibility, and tend to only explore places I can navigate with crutches or my wheelchair. I also tend to explore my state, but take every chance I can get to be outdoors elsewhere.
Years of being outside were robbed from me due to my disability, but now adaptive hiking is the thing that brings me the most peace. I do nto consider myself "well", mentally or physically, but being in the woods still seems to heal me a bit more each time. It obviously won't fix anything, but you cannot underestimate the cleansing power that sitting in the forest has on the soul.
I also, given my username, use a lot of cannabis medicinally, and frequently partake during my hikes and writing sessions. This blog will have mentions of triggering topics including but not limited to: drugs, alcohol, suicide, self harm, violence, and death. Proceed with caution.
If you want to contact me, send me a DM or an inquiry here.
Let's Roll!
