There are affiliate links in here. Every now and then I go back through old trip pictures and find some that I love but never did anything with.

There are affiliate links in here. If you follow me anywhere other than here, you probably already know that I’ve been learning how to watercolor paint. Well, I also decided that I am going to draw or paint something everyday for the next year. 365 whole days. So far I’ve done good. I mean, I…

After living in the Utah (and the desert) for almost seven months, with at least five more this year, I've developed a few habits for traveling in the desert to stay a little safer. It can be a little intimidating traveling through the desert, but I love it and want…
I'm switching things up today and writing a review. Yup, you read that right, a review. I started using Viraltag two weeks ago on a trial and love it. It's cut down what I have to do daily and I didn't realize I needed it until I was using it. I had read about schedulers…
There are affiliate links in here. I usually share mostly travel books, but this time it's a little different. Sort of. These are all by the same author, Nevada Barr, and all take place in National Parks around the US. They can be a little out there, but what mystery and murder books aren't? I…

It's time for another reading list! Like usual, I've been busy with a book in hand on pretty much a daily basis. That's one good thing about winter, it's the perfect reading weather! Especially when you have a car that isn't optimal for snow. So, buckle up (ha, car jokes) and get reading! (This post…
