21ST CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER TOUR ACROSS WEST 270000 MILE MISSION OF LOVE-COLORADO, UTAH, NEVAD CALIFORNIA

FIRST CARAVAN SINCE COVID BEGAN- I am out on road. Seeking news stories but realizing with COVID and everything else going on, they may not come and haven't for first week out. And people are rightfully so hesitant to come up. So if you want to help---let your local news know you saw me as soon as you can, what really would help is email National news, message them on their facebook, instagram or twitter page or any of their reporters /anchors where you saw me. AND HONK IF YOU SEE ME SO I KNOW YOUR READ THIS!!! At 66 I am not sure how much longer I can do this and it saddens my heart that we are heading to the 17th year as cold case 10/4/21 AND EMAIL ME AT therapoet@aol.com ABOUT YOUR COLDCASE SO I CAN SHARE IT.

TIRED, SAD, MEMORIAL MOVES SLOW, BUT I MOVE ON

Thank you Phoenix for all your kind words when I stopped somewhere. I have been here 3 days. No media responded to me so I must move on but I do thank those who acknowledged me. That made my day. On to San Diego. I am trying not to be sad but only 3 stories in 3 weeks is disheartening and makes me feel forgotten. We used to get 3-5 each week. If I could travel for as long as I wanted, this would not matter. But a week out cost me almost $1000 so 4 weeks out costs $4000. I never mind spending my own money but funds are limited. So $1000 per story is pretty high... I AM SORRY BRITTY. I KEEP TRYING.

MOTHER'S DAY DRIVE .......................................................

I WILL CRY AND LAUGH TODAY...
Heading back to Lawton on 9 hr drive on mother's day.

2 WEEKS AND ONLY TWO STORIES. I ILL SPEND ANYHTING BUT THAT BECOMES $1000 INVESTED IN EACH LOCAL STORY.

All I want for mother's day is A FEW MINUTES OF YOUR TIME-- calling Media (tipline/newsdesk) in cities I visit--.IN ATLANTA NOW HEADING TO JACKSON MISS. TODAY or call/email NATIONAL NEWS (THIS WOULD BE THE BEST MOTHER'S DAY GIFT!!!).Ask if aware of mother driving self-funded 166000 MILES cross country getting 155 stories FOR LAST 10 YRS IN HONOR OF HER DAUGHTER, IN WRAPPED SUVS--....MAYBE CREATE A PHONE BANK WITH FRIENDS..............WOULDN'T THIS BE A MOTHER'S DAY STORY???.

 

ST. PETE/TAMPA STORY...THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

What a great gift from St. Pete. What a great time in St. Pete/Tampa--at the beaches, downtown St. Pete, Ybor City and more and amid letting people know about Britty's murder, needed law change and reaching out to other homicide survivors, I was able to see Joshua (wh babysat dogs while doing story. WHAT A GREAT TEAM Chris Cato and Photog Kevin. THEY GAVE US A TRUE GIFT. THANK YOU GUYS AND THANK YOU BAY AREA!!!

HOUSTON WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART

What a great gift was blown in by winds that followed me to Houston. Angela Chen and her photographer spent more than an hour with me getting material to craft their story about Brittany and the CARAVAN at the FOX26 Station. The end result was a passionate, powerful poignant story. Their artistry created a story that had focus on the important aspects of CARAVAN tours. How impressive and what a great way to start the 15th CARAVAN tour. Angela, her photographer and FOX26 will always have a place in my heart. And today I have already had about 1000 hits on this website and multiple honks, waves and people coming up to me.

FIRST DAY ON THE ROAD-FOX26 ANGELA CHEN GIFTS US

MY HEART HURTS

Heading to Bowling Green for last chance story in Kentucky. People in cities, on road great but no media contact from multiple attempts to contact. Home for a week or so to work, replenish funds, then back out to Northeast states. Still trying to get Brittany's name on our DNA at Arrest bill that passed after eight years hard work. Starting at year 4 of fight, I asked every year thereafter. Just received email from ProTem,...too late??. 1) I asked prior to the bill being drafted this year but somehow the Assistant didn't ask until too late. 2)I didn't do these 8 years for the name on the bill but it hurts they didn't think of it anyway. ..**Yes the law being passed is most important, but over years I watched at least 5 of my "family" of murdered children get a)their murder nationally publicized, then solved and their murdered child's name on their States law. I am only human and want that legacy for my child...And now I sit here with 1 story in 1.5 weeks........152000 miles and 152 stories but no national overage, no solving and now no name on law.........my heart hurts

3RD GENERATION CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER--WRAPPED AND READY TO GO

T

The third generation CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER vehicle has been born, the WRAP donated by Nissan of Lawton and done for the 3rd time by Travis and his Company Midwest Wraps in Tulsa. We should be leaving on the 15th CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER tour in 2 weeks to the NE and the States that still have not passed DNA at Arrest laws

SILENCE ECHOES LOUDER EACH DAY

Two weeks on road 1 story. My heart hurts at the 11th anniversary. Everything moves farther and farther away

Clock is ticking

Beautiful drive to Casper. Now it has been Lincoln Nebraska and Denver /Cheyenne area with more than 20 emails sent out in each city, no responses to multiple emails I sent out every night. Have dropped off flyers at PD and such. My queries/emails are the same (better edited) to ones that got m 10-14 stories on a CARAVAN but 4 days out and no response, not one response. To make it more difficult, my Computer is freezing up. Makes it slow to get emails out --up late every nite to do the emails(hotel computer always in use) Cell Phone having problems, hope calls weren't thwarted. Year 10,11, harder than others=detective is almost non communicative, media local and regional more quiet. Getting stories always made the rest of the year better. Now it feels like one more thing taken. All the things that helped me over the years to keep the strength,recharge me, one by one are gone. Slowness would be okay if I had more weeks out like I used to= but clock is ticking....and then I'll have to wait another year, another year older--twisting my heart. I can handle anything--- Don't mind the aloneness on the road, the long hours of email work or silence in the hotel................when a story is the end result. MORE SO THAN EVER, PLEASE EMAIL WRITE CALL NATIONAL NEWS. Create a call event....??? Her story, many womens' stories are dying without more exposure. Th

is will become ice, not cold. If yu do write natl, please let me know so I can follow up. 2 people so far, from last post said they did or will. Yes seeking tips but about educating people that all DNA at arrest will do is save lives......I ask so little all year...BUT Thanks to those in Ft Collins who came up, including the infectous disease doc and the man who moved his family to the US from australia and who shed a tear...the young photographer, the mother who lost a daughter to drunk driver. You all made my day
