Whether you're a sight-seer, thrill seeker or beach lounger, activities to satisfy bucket lists of all kinds.
Wekiwa Springs, Florida
A few months ago my cousin decided to join the navy. But before she left we decided to start completing as many bucket list events as possible in the short amount of time that we had before she had to go. And so this is where we start. We decided that the easiest bucket list item was canoeing. But we didn’t want to go to the springs JUST to canoe, so we set up a whole plan. And here’s how it was going to go:

Daydreaming
"The Mountains are Calling and I Must Go…” —John Muir Sticking to getting something done today will be challenging. I have been staring at this quote on my screensaver for about 45 minutes now. The weather outside is cooling down, a bit drizzly to be honest, and my heart is screaming, “IT’S ALMOST TIME…” My brain interrupts, “Stop, concentrate, focus. You have work to do!”

Thru-Hiking Pennsylvania Via the Appalachian Trail
I had been on the Appalachian Trail (AT) for almost 100 days when I finally made it to Pennsylvania. One of the things you hear about since you start the trail is how rocky the Pennsylvania section is. The grapevine that connect the hikers and the hiking community warns about how you are sure to burn through at least one pair of shoes before the Delaware Water Gap (DWG). Many have even given the section a trail name: Rocksylvania, when referring to the "treacherous" trails ahead. Although I agree that there are many rocks, and concede at times they are tiring, I also believe there is so much more offered by the state than just rocks; and it should be recognized. When I look back on this section I don't just see the rocks that constitute the trail. I also notice the Friendly Trail Towns, Access to Cold Water, and Stellar Views. It bothered me that before PA hikers only hear about the rocks, but when you arrive you find so much more. I want to bring to light the 'Much More' to Pennsylvania from the perspective of Mr. Nature.

Let's Go on an Adventure—Part II
The Moment the airplane lost touch with the earth below, I felt gravity press against me, weighing heavy in my ultra tight pants, on the ultra leathery seat below me. Pedals moving under my feet thanks to my ever-experienced Captain carving out our path through the velvety thick air about ground control. He quickly responded to air traffic whilst sharply sending the vessel abruptly right while gaining altitude and velocity.

Westminster Abbey And Epic Humans
Not only do I get to travel all over the world, but, I get to work and visit epic humans. I'm going to introduce you to a couple of them today. I particularly LOVE this video of Leila Khan… Attempting to giving me a little bit of England's vast history here at Westminster Abbey! (And she's adorable!).

Awesome Annual Trip at Powell
Myself, my kids, and my friend took a trip to Lake Powell this season. The drive is 480 miles to Bullfrog Marina from my house. We left at 2:30 AM and was at Bullfrog Marina at 11 AM. When we go, we get a three bedroom modular home. These rooms are very nice, two bathrooms, full kitchen, they even provide a BBQ that you can use. And most important is air conditioning. It can get into the hundreds at Lake Powell.

Camping Cross Country and Why Your Family Will Love It
Camping is an excellent group activity. You can do it with your family, your partner, or friends who love nature. Camping is a great bonding experience between your camping partners, the outdoors, and yourself. Camping across the country takes this experience to another level. You get to enjoy nature in different environments. You visit places you might have been or not been before. Camping in different countries will allow you to see them differently. You will be observing their nature and outdoor environments seeing the good and the bad. You will see the countries you visit in a raw and intimate way. It is a rare and beautiful experience. You won't regret taking this trip whether you go with friends or family.
