It's funny to see the evolution of this site and myself. I started this site/blog well over 10 years ago. The original idea was to share things that worked for me or didn't work as a single parent. As well as a escape for my mental health, plus a few nerdy things here and there. …
Trail of the Ten Falls
This still has to be one of my favorite photos that I have taken. This was at Silver Falls State Park, part of the Trail of the Ten Falls.

Glencoul — The Walking Papers
Big Bothy Walk #30 The bothy sat in a fold of the glen beside the Glencoul Loch, carved out by retreating ice many millennia ago. An old schoolhouse once, to the children of all the tiny settlements in the creases and cracks of the nearby hills. Many of these children would grow up and be […] …

Normally I wouldn't worry, but they didn't bring water/first aid. And only one of them did the trail before. So with out telling them, …

Story Time! Fuzzy Tree
Story Time! On our last hiking trip, we found a "fuzzy" tree hahaha. There were no other trees like it around the area. While we were talking (at least I was talking) about different types of moss. I realized things went silent on his end...Then all I hear is Jackson yell, "it's so fuzzy!". He …
