Greetings! Well... I'm hanging my head in shame at the length of time between now and my last post. Not shame, really, but I do feel like I haven't devoted the time to this blog that it deserves. I truly enjoy documenting my travels and looking back through pictures from the amazing places I've had …
I realized I forgot to mention in either of my two latest posts that I've achieved one of my travel resolutions for this year! I wanted to visit two states I hadn't been to before and I've now been to three! This particular vacation took me to Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho so now I only …

Picking up where we left off, after the Great Bison Jam of 2019, our bedraggled band of traveling misfits arrived after midnight at a cabin in a semi-remote area of Idaho (although to be fair, almost all of Idaho is remote). We had all been up for close to 24 hours, due to our early …

Happy Fourth of July! Today seemed a very appropriate day to post Part One of a two part post about America's first national park, Yellowstone. This trip began a week ago when my parents and I flew to Bozeman with plans to see Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons before heading over to Billings for a …
Greetings! I hope everyone is enjoying beautiful weather like I am here in the mountains of West Virginia. It's been perfection here lately and I've had a slow travel schedule the past month and have had lots of time to enjoy the lake, the mountains, and laying at the pool with a book. Coopers Rock …

Hi gang! So since my last post, not only did I fail miserably at my resolution to post more often, but I think this is now the longest I have gone between posts. Facepalm. I swear, I really am going to post more often. And as a sign of good faith, I am going to …

I'm not sure if you've noticed, but I tend to not make timely posts (i.e. - holidays post in mid-January, writing about trips months or years after they happen). And this post is no different! I don't typically make New Years resolutions, but I decided that I had some definite goals this year - Develop …

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. Yes, I realize it is mid-January but darn it, I have some good December travels that I need to share! I needed to be in Washington DC, Fresno, and the Bay Area for work during two weeks in December and I decided to mash …
Happy holidays! I'm writing to you from my parents' house in Columbus, Ohio where I'm currently relaxing on the couch with some college bowl games and the company of my parents, sister, brother-in-law, their dog, and a sleeping niece upstairs. I've been traveling most of December and threw a move to another state in the …

With my tail between my legs, I continued on from Joshua Tree to Orange County. My spirits were greatly lifted though as I drove by Palm Springs and saw 4,000 silent sentries, arms rotating gently as they stared blankly from their post on the San Gorgonio Mountain Pass out upon the Coachella Valley. WINDMILLS!!! Actually, …
