If you’ve read any of my previous posts on Moab, specifically for Arches and Canyonlands national parks, you will already know that the vastness surrounding the small desert town is one of my favorite places on the planet. The feelings that crop up as I turn onto Highway 191 are a mixture of excitement, anticipation...
Although I have been to Moab, Utah and by extension, Arches National Park, numerous times, I’ve always seemed to miss spending any time in Canyonlands National Park. It’s about a 30 minute ride from Moab and yet it has taken me years to finally get here. I took part of a day on my latest...
Arches National Park is one of my favorite places in the entire world. I’m not sure if it’s the desert beauty that I am drawn to, or the fact that I feel so tiny traversing the trails, past monumental sized rocks of sandstone, or if its the arches themselves, that seem to defy the crushing...
The best laid plans can go awry when it comes to photography. There are times when no matter how well thought out or how well a plan is set there still needs to be a bit of luck when it comes to photographing nature. The location was picked out in Boulder for the Super, Blue,...
After a short, but sweet, weekend in Siem Reap, Cambodia to visit Angkor Wat, I have to say goodbye to my new-found friend Lee. He drops me off at the airport in plenty of time to catch my flight and waves goodbye as he maneuvers his tuk-tuk through the traffic at the terminal. I can’t...
One would think it is hard to get out of bed at such an ungodly hour. It’s 3:45 a.m. and I spring from under the covers, wide awake, like a kid on Christmas morning. The early morning air is crisp and chilly as I head outside to meet Lee. He is, as usual, early and...
The sun is barely up. The sky shines with hues of pinks and purples as I hit the streets of Bangkok to catch a ride to the airport. I am heading to Cambodia for the weekend. It’s not even close to enough time to spend in this country but being this close geographically, I can’t...
After such a wonderful first day in Bangkok I wake early and head out of the door. The streets are again filled with motor bikes and tuk-tuks whizzing by, and the sidewalk street vendors are out hawking food and trinkets. I feel confident having successfully navigated the city the day before. I have researched travel...
For those of you considering traveling to Thailand I have added some links throughout this post that may be helpful or, at least, informative! I can barely contain my excitement! Another destination, this time halfway across the world, is about to be crossed off the bucket list as I board the airplane at Denver International...
This big, blue planet we call home is full of wonderment and adventure. Natural beauty surrounds us and at any given fork in the road lies surprises, the unexplained, the undiscovered. This was my first trip to the city of Albuquerque. Each year the city is host to the world’s largest international ballooning event appropriately...
