Things I’m Considering
I have had all sorts of ideas and thoughts circulating in my head lately, but no real umph to make decisions or execute on any of them. This is unusual for me as I normally pride myself on being a very decisive, action-oriented person. The current list in my head isn’t all that important though! Continue reading

Wild and Wonderful West Virginia Weekend
It might already be Thursday but I am still thinking about this weekend. We drove out to West Virginia on Friday for the long weekend and I took Tuesday off to extend things. We changed it up this year and went to Elkins, WV, a significantly less touristy town than Davis or Thomas. Our Airbnb Continue reading

A Good Reminder
Last week my dad and I went to Breckenridge, CO for a few days. I have time off between jobs and was craving an adventure. Although we weren’t there long, it was so refreshing and beautiful… and my legs are decently fatigued! We both summited our first 14ers at Quandary Peak, hiked a glorious portion Continue reading

Greenbelt Adventure Run
Holy guacamole guys. I just had so much fun! Yesterday I headed to the Greenbelt here in ATX for a trail run, but I was getting eaten up by mosquitoes so I called it quits after only 1.8 miles. So today I headed there again covered head to toe in sunscreen and bug spray (welcome Continue reading

McKinney Falls
I went to McKinney Falls State Park today! I came home from work, had an early lunch, then spontaneously threw water and an apple into my backpack and hit the road! Oh and guess what, I live like 10 minutes away from the park. And I also put on some sunscreen and bug spray! 😉 Continue reading
