A couple of my good friends are celebrating birthdays this month. As part of that they wanted to hike Cape Split as a group. Despite living here for a long time, and it being a well known trail I’ve only been out to the point twice before, the first time was just over a yearContinue reading “Beautiful views & eye opening realizations”

Long exposure iPhone photos
This isn’t anything new, but it was new to me. In fact I believe it has been around since iOS11 which came out about three years ago. Lately we’ve been doing lots of trails and that involve water of some sort and I’ve found myself wishing that I took our dSLR camera with us soContinue reading “Long exposure iPhone photos”
Different type of book tour
Back in November I read a great book written by a local friend Laura Churchill Duke called Two Crows Sorrow. It’s a creative nonfiction about a murder which took place in a local community in 1904.

Hidden Valley
This is a trail we’ve done before, but it’s been a few years, so we went out again today with my Sister and her family. It’s right by their house as well. The walk starts by going under the highway which is neat and then some easy trail for most of the walk. It isn’tContinue reading “Hidden Valley”

I’m going to talk more about that amazing time, but today Noah and I were able to spend some time together while everyone else was out. The day before I had left for myContinue reading “Noah and Dad Time”
Should Sleep Tonight
The past few nights I have not been sleeping properly. A couple nights in a hotel and getting ready to go meetup with my team have led to some tossing and turning. This afternoon has been great though. Getting together with family and friends we went for a two hour hike through the woods toContinue reading “Should Sleep Tonight”
