Why Can’t I Write This?

Blog Posts I love visiting National Parks, it is my true passion. It was sparked by a need to feel like a Floridian and visit the national parks where I live and then later by a desire to see beautiful natural places. I started “blogging” a little over a year ago and beginning with documentingContinueContinue reading “Why Can’t I Write This?”

Greeting Spring in Grand Teton

May 17 and 18, 2021 Grand Teton North Entrance from John D Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway I spent a week on a solo trip to Grand Teton and Yellowstone this spring. I spent May 17 and the morning of May 18 in Grand Teton National Park. This was my fourth trip to the Greater YellowstoneContinueContinue reading “Greeting Spring in Grand Teton”

The Greatest Grand Canyon Jaunt

March 30 – April 2 With only a 2 hour drive ahead of us from Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon National Park we took it easy in the morning and slept in! It turns out…it wasn’t a great idea to sleep in, we should have gotten up much earlier because that 2 hour drive turnedContinueContinue reading “The Greatest Grand Canyon Jaunt”

Petrified Forest

March 28 -29 After our time in Saguaro National Park, my mom and I made our way to Petrified Forest National Park. Somehow I didn’t think about the fact that it was a 5 hour drive from Tucson to Holbrook…I deluded myself into thinking that it was only a 3 hour drive, I’m not entirelyContinueContinue reading “Petrified Forest”

We landed in Phoenix on March 25 in the evening and finally made it to a hotel (theContinueContinue reading “Seeing Saguaro”

I had completed the online check in and went to pick up my car, the attendant said that I was unable to rent a vehicleContinueContinue reading “Starting Solo”

The Start of an Obsession

The Perfect Gift For months after my trip to Everglades National Park I contemplated buying a real camera, other than the one that came equipped on my phone, it was an iPhone 4S after all, an ancient relic even when I was using it. I researched and read reviews, I shopped online and went toContinueContinue reading “The Start of an Obsession”

Finally a Floridian

March 2014 After graduating from university I moved to Central Florida to pursue a career at the Walt Disney World Resort. I sort of floundered after college and didn’t know exactly what I wanted to do, but I knew that I was good at customer service and I had a passion for the Walt DisneyContinueContinue reading “Finally a Floridian”

Fancy Footwear

I’ve made some questionable decisions when going on trips. As the years have gone by I’ve learned the hard way that shoe choice is definitely something that matters. Some of you may think, ‘Of course, that should have been obvious.’ And you wouldn’t be wrong in that thought, but I was naive and later, justContinueContinue reading “Fancy Footwear”
