What is this place?

This is a personal journey.

I’m not a travel writer. I’m not here to provide all the answers to all the questions people have about the places I’m going or have gone. I’m an explorer, and this is a place for me to keep track of my thoughts, ideas, plans, and experiences.

My 50th birthday was just a beginning.

What it IS:

  • A place for me to record my thoughts as I plan each trip
  • A place for me to share the experiences, photos, insights, and other thoughts along the way
  • A place for me to reflect on… whatever I need to reflect on in the moment
  • A place where you can learn a little bit about the parks, or about me, if you’re so inclined

What it ISN’T:

  • An exhaustive travel guide
  • A “light” travel guide
  • Even a wanna-be travel guide
  • It’s not a guide. I don’t know anything. I’m just out here having fun.
