A New View. An Alternate Path. Come Runaway!
For those of you, that don’t already know, I have never been outside of the country. Yes, really! I travel as much as I can within the United States, but that’s about it. I may not get to the Philippines for my first travel abroad blog, but I will get there eventually. The Cost […]
I’m still having trouble with the pictures uploading from my Drive, but more on the AZ trip is coming. I was camping this last weekend, so excuse my late post! I cannot express how much I enjoy camping or the amazing feel of getting closer to our more primitive selves. Lake Jocassee […]
Midsummer’s day is the longest day of the year and the first day of my favorite season. Also, for many European cultures, this day held significant meaning for them whether it be religious or agricultural, the whole community gathered for this day. The Germanic and Celtic tribes of Northern Europe celebrated a break from normal work because […]

Well, last we left off, I had just crossed the AZ/NM border and was about to stop in the Painted Desert/Petrified Forest. This is my take on this amazing spot of the world and one place that every […]

It’s a hard thing for me to come through here without going back and feeling like a kid traveling to North Carolina rather than from it. Before we moved, I had lived in Arizona for over 10 years but had traveled across country to visit NC several time which is when we fell in love […]
Image is of Old 66 abandoned building at Exit 0 (scary) off the I-40 After eating my hotel breakfast yesterday, we hit the road again and drove through the sea of grass known as the Great Plains. I have always loved the wide open spaces and I love to imagine what it would be like […]
I am typing this at around 2:15 am this morning, Thursday from my hotel room in Amarillo, Texas. Yesterday I crossed the mighty Mississippi River! Before steel bridges which came in the late 1800s, people had to literally cross the river by raft, ferry, or by just simply trying to swim themselves and their possessions […]
Picture is of Sedona, Arizona. Alright, why is there no WiFi!!? Sorry guys, my house is being renovated and we have been staying at a place with no internet connection. Tomorrow night I am leaving for Arizona and my first stop will be Memphis, Tennessee. We are taking I-40 from Asheville, North Carolina (my home) […]
