Fairies and Cliff Dwellers and Angels
Actually, it’s a single ferry, but that just didn’t fit the theme as well. Humph. Mike and I took off on our roadtrip on Sunday, July 31st, 2011. This, incidentally, was my birthday — birthday 29.2. With only vague plans in mind, we drove north. After a mere 2.5 hours of driving, we pulled into … Continue reading

I have upgraded and updated my blog with every intention of being much better about posting things in the future. You can tell I’m more serious because I have a .com and not a .blogspot.com or .wordpress.com. I know I’ve said before that I would return to blogging only to post 3 times and disappear … Continue reading
Soldier Canyon
The weather has been gorgeous here in Arizona lately, so Mike and I decided to take advantage of a sunny Sunday. Late Saturday night we packed our car and headed south toward Tuscon. Arriving just after 1:00am, we parked in a camping area on Mt. Lemmon and resettled ourselves in the back of the car … Continue reading

Participants did a speed competition to see who could climb two routes the fastest and a … Continue reading

We left late afternoon on Saturday with a car full of people and gear. You wouldn’t … Continue reading

So, you thought you’d never hear about our adventures again, right? I must admit, I didn’t think blogging was necessary once I got back to the States. I thought Facebook updates and regular phone calls to my family were enough. I could tell my stories, post a few pictures, and get on with things. That’s … Continue reading
At Altitude
Well, Mike and I have set foot in South America — a first time on this continent and south of the equator for both of us. We had a long, kind of tiring journey from Phoenix to L.A. to Panama City to Quito, but we’re here! Of course, once we got here it took us … Continue reading
Playing Catch-Up
Long time no write. Oopsy. Since I last posted an update I’ve been cliff jumping at Gisela, partying in Vegas for my little sister’s bachelorette party, and working hard. I’ve moved out of my apartment and am now a step closer to my travels. Mike and I have booked our plane tix to Cancun, where … Continue reading
