Idyllwild Weekend

October 17, 2022   |   Adventure, San Diego

A Solo Weekend

October 17, 2022   |   Quickbits

It’s been a while since I’ve had a couple of days to try and wear myself out.   A few weeks ago, I gave my wife the weekend off.   She stayed at a friend’s house for the weekend while they were off travelling.   This weekend, it was my turn to spend a weekend however I wanted. I made it […]

Not only were you plowing through brush, in some places your were hunched over, nearly […]

March 11, 2018   |   Adventure

It can be hard to see in these times of stupidity, just how lucky we are. Trump just led the charge to reduce the size of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument — a place that has been protected for the past 21 years, the majority of my life.
