Tania needs tires, registration, and insurance for the circus to continue.

Hello family. It has been nearly 5 years since Shaun and I started out on this Goodie adventure, and what an adventure it has been. The last few years have been some of the most challenging and rewarding of our lives. Looking back, it is hard to imagine where we found the nerve to even begin. During the first couple of years, we almost didn't make it. Every mile challenged us and our will to survive. Thanks to the support of our closest allies, we never quit more than we kept going. It was always in our darkest hour one of our champions showed up and pushed us along. Today isn't one of those dark days. Today is one of those grateful days. Shaun and I and our dogs have been blessed with time together and time with our loved ones we didn't have in our former lives and for that, we are forever grateful. We have seen more of this magnificent country of ours than we could have ever imagined. We've seen the spacious skies, the amber waves of grain, the purple mountains majesty, and the fruited plains. We've crossed paths with more beautiful souls than stars in a Midwest night sky. We have created music with our heroes and have met heroes no one's heard of through music. We have friends that are family and more memories than I could put in a book. It has been a blessed and privileged journey. We have traveled over 125,000 miles, most of them in the last two years. All this traveling has taken a real toll on Tania. We've had to do quite a few repairs to Tania recently at the cost of our tire budget. We have to replace tires twice a year and this year, we are behind. Tania is in need of four new tires, one is already flat. Car registration is due next month and insurance is due at the end of September. We are $1000 away from keeping the circus on the road and it is not in our budget. So we are doing what we do and are asking you, our friends, our universe, what our next move is. As of today, the journey is over as we have known it. Tania is dry docked until we can get new tires at a minimum. If the circus is to move forward, we are going to need a little help from our friends. Thank you. One love.
