2024 Goals
Harvest Moon, September 18, 2024 I started writing this in January– it’s now September. Oddly enough, this year I spent a lot of time in my head. I took pictures and video– wrote a little bit of poetry, that was about it in the writing realm– and working on the Pennington Book Project. I think what I wrote in January still resonates though. I’m not a resolution person. I’ve tried them, I’ve…

I got some news… **This post originally appeared on my PRW Newsletter on Jan. 27, 2023. There are few edits.** It’s a new year, a new day, and I have a new baby on the way! Between Covid-19 and winter I didn’t get out as much with my newborn in 2020.

Havasupai Gardens
#IndianGarden has been renamed #HavasupaiGardens!
Hi all! I’m still taking my time writing my posts from this summer, float trip on the Current River in the Ozark National Scenic Riverways and day hikes in Glacier National Park. However, this announcement from Grand Canyon National Park caught my interest and I wanted to post an update about my first overnight backpacking trip that started this whole blog! Here is the first of three posts about…

I’m a little off on my timeline for the blog— I was taken by time, campfires, (work), and rivers and I’ll eventually float back to a place with a computer and time to type up all the happenings, adventures, and pulled muscles soon! #campfires #blogs #rivers #riverside #tired #wannabewandering #wannabebackpacker (at Camp Brookside Environmental Education Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfVJKYmjAOw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
