Channel Islands National Park is a magnificent place off the coast of California. It is called the “Galapagos Islands of North America.” There are five islands you can adventure out to; Anacopa Island, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, San Miguel, and Santa Barbara. Each island different and each island protected by [...]
Malibu is a very popular beach, just like Venice Beach, Santa Barbara, and Santa Monica. Definitely enjoyable, especially watching the surfers, that’s what I like to do, but there are also places to visit in and around Malibu. […]
Los Angeles is huge offering so many things to do! Being from across the country, Buffalo NY, I only heard of the attractions Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood Sign, Venice Beach, Santa Monica Pier, Malibu and all the other well-knows tourist areas. But I had no idea what to expect as soon as I got to the [...]
Sequoia National Park has a lot to offer and has a lot of trails! I would say I think there are more miles of backpacking trails than hiking trails at this park.

I highlighted everywhere I drove in blue, the places I hiked in pink and the places I slept at in orange. My plan was to go all over Colorado but I picked the wrong time to do it. Southern Colorado is excellent in the beginning of June, but Central and Northern Colorado, not so much, [...]
I have always wanted to see Aspen. Now don’t make fun, but it happened after I watched dumb and dumber about 10 years ago. It just looked beautiful on the film and I always wanted to see it in person. Now I have, and it is just as beautiful as I hoped it would be. [...]
