It's about damn time! What the hell took me so long to get over here is what I keep asking myself. For one, I can't stand Facebook and I love the idea of Steem, so here I am. 

A few friends of mine have been on Steem for a bit now and I have been wanting to get on myself but the year 2017 has been a wild ride. I got very sick after being bit by a tick, took me 8 weeks to get going again and I am still not 100%, ten months later. I announced my run for Texas Governor, and it has just been one crazy, fun ride. I have learned so much about my mental and physical strength.

After looking at Steem on Bittrex for a few months and getting a little here and there, I had to actually get on it and get active. Well, here I am. I am here to post about my journey in Texas Freedom Grounds, my run for Texas Governor and all the activism that I do. 2018 is going to be an epic year starting with the Cannabis Open Carry movement and my run for Governor. Be on the look out for people on street corners all over the state of Texas showing love this amazing plant. 

Love.Freedom.Innovation
