Hello Montana

We will be headed to Billings, MT in two days to start the Journey For Jess. Here is a picture I took on Beartooth pass, just south of Billings, last summer.

Grand Teton and Yellowstone

These are a couple of the pictures I took the last time I was at Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks.   I'm hoping to have similar success on the Journey For Jess this year so I can use the beautiful scenery of the national parks to raise awareness for seizure disorders.

Update

15 days until the Journey For Jess begins.

All the reservations have been made. The routes have been planned. (click here to view)

I'm still in the process of determining where the best places to photograph at sunrise and sunset are at each of our destinations. I have some ideas but will wait and talk to locals and see for myself when we arrive at each location.

I've been talking to businesses and trying to get in contact with media outlets, and although it hasn't gone great I do feel like we are making progress.

We will be updating periodically the next two weeks and then will update multiple times daily once the Journey For Jess has begun.

Please bookmark us and check back on our progress as we try to raise money and awareness for people affected by seizure disorders.

Thanks for visiting.
