my first experience with the You-are-beautiful project began on a relocation cross country road trip from Muncie, Indiana to Portland, Oregon in 2001. Me, my partner, and a friend (who prefers to be anonymous) plastered you are beautiful stickers in bathroom stalls, motel lobbies, gas pumps, rest stops, bowling alleys, road signs, toll booths, phone booths, and wherever else we could sneak them. It was a memorable trip for many reasons, (my car dying, Laramie Wyoming, hot tubs, mountains, kitty escapes, prairies, ice storms, belligerent drunkenness, cowboys&strippers) but perhaps most fun was the feeling like i was on some covert cross country mission to spread a little love through a positive message.
