Long time no see

It has been a long time since I started this blog, I created it almost 3 years ago now, and have grown a lot since then, I now live in Tampa Florida with my dream girl Leah and our puppy Smokey. The years have taught me a lot of things about myself and the world, and has left me with a lot of new perspectives. To recap I moved to Florida for a tattoo apprenticeship in which I spent 40 hours a week drawing and cleaning and doing whatever the artists needed me to. During that time I trained Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu almost every day as the artist I was learning under had become enamored with the art, but because of this his interest in my apprenticeship dwindled to a point of non existence. During this time I fell in love with Leah, and so I wanted to continue to live in Florida. I then worked at a small cafe' still pursuing art and most recently took a job at a dog groomers. I am making attempts to figure out the next portion of my life in terms of what career I want to pursue but I know things will work out as they always have. I recently decided to go vegan after watching a documentary called Earthlings (which I suggest everyone watch) a transition that was way easier than I expected. I still have an insatiable desire for adventure, but as my lady in now in Pharmacy school I will be settled in Florida for at least a few more years, luckily Florida is beautiful and has all kinds of interesting things going on in it to keep me occupied for a while. I am going to be updating this blog much more frequently now. I will be posting my art, all of my tattoos, vegan meals that Leah and I will be cooking and anything else that is cool or interesting. I wish you the best of luck in everything that you are working towards in your own life, and hope that we can all make the world a more positive place!!

Trancendental meditation and the art of war

The opening of a grand adventure generally starts with a heart felt goodbye. The tendency to move around is a result of the impulsive nature of the monkey man mentality which allows for such detachment. Planes, commercial trains and automobiles are good vehicles for the soul but a truer form of adventure comes from your souls, the ones on your feet and the one in your heart. The purpose of this blogg is to gather together those who feel the need to travel and share a common appreciation for all things bad ass. My name is Frank Wheat and this blogg will let you get to know me through my travels.
