About Me

a perfectly cut crescent moon was revealing its moonlight through the mountain tops onto the calm, glass-like lake one night almost twenty-five years ago. the setting... revelstoke; high up in the mountains of beautiful british columbia. two young lovers drank of this natural beauty that night. i was conceived. gross, i know. this is the beginning of the tale of markusmoon .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . for the first time, i returned to my destiny - revelstoke, to drink of its beauty for myself. it was intoxicating. the moment was shared with one companion - male, that is. so nothing was conceived that night (regardless of what he tells me). i tell you there was something magical about that place, and i believe i received some sort of blessing that night. i was "revelstoked." from that day forward, i have been moving in the light of the moon, using its guidance to seek out the path laid out for me by its maker - by my maker.
