I should be used to a 3:15 wake up call by now after working the runDisney races for 22 years…… This day was one of those long standing bucket list adventures I was crawling out of my skin to start. So I popped right up and made the easy 15 min drive to the bikeContinue reading “Sunrise volcano bike 🌋 🚲”

If you haven’t immersed yourself into the very chilly waterways in western Florida to swim amongst the manatees, what are you waiting for? Swimming amongst these gentle giants is very special. They migrate into the springs areas to escape the bitter cold ocean waters. Needless to say, I wasn’t very thrilled at the thought ofContinue reading “Swimming with Manatees”

Have you ever spent time just with your thoughts and figured out what makes you tick? It can be a scary journey but when you hone in on your inner workings and dig deep (really really deep), you can bring to life some little known characteristics that make you uniquely you. While I’m a selfContinue reading “The little things”

Did you know little ol’ Titusville, FL is unique to only 5 locations in the world for a very specific phenomenon? The crazy bioluminescence fires up in early fall and it is a must do on the Space Coast. The launch site is back in the sticks once you cross over the Max Brewer BridgeContinue reading “Bioluminescent kayak tours”

Some are born to play it safe & others are meant to be wild! I had made the tough call to bypass the state of North Dakota on my original west road trip with my dad in Fall 2020 due to too much ground to cover just to hit the Theodore Roosevelt National Park. SoContinue reading “Stay Wild 🦬 🐾 🐄”

One of my personal goals is to hike in every US National Park. Easier said than done, as quite a few are not accessible by car and very pricey. Nonetheless, I charge forward in my quest with relentless passion. And if you open that challenge up to every recognized National Park Service location, that listContinue reading “National Park Geek”

Ready for an adventure?! Settle in for an 8 mile drive on a dirt and gravel road taking 30 mins to spot the trailhead parking lot. I was fortunate it was a dry week, so my little rented Versa survived. And since I didn’t know if I would succumb to the sand, I paid forContinue reading “Wire pass slot canyon”

What could ever top flying over the Napali coast of Kauai? Seriously, it was that mind blowing! Well…. drive the winding backroads on the remote western coast of Kauai passing through the impressive Waimea State Park until it dead ends into Kokee State Park. Enjoy the overlooks for a few minutes with all the otherContinue reading “On the edge in Kauai”

I am not easily “wowed”, even though I do appreciate many of mother nature’s miracles. Helicopters are not really my thing (Nepal/Everest flashbacks), so when I found the only biplane certified to fly over the Napali Coast I knew this was my big adventure ticket while visiting the gorgeous island of Kauai. (And the priceContinue reading “Soaring over the Napali Coast”

To date, I’ve ventured into the big blue 36 times and each one is very unique. You never know what sea life and forces of nature are waiting for you to explore. During my gap year of adventure, I was already getting sad at the thought of my 10 month whirlwind rapidly coming to anContinue reading “Scuba diving the Med Sea”
