Welcome!

I have always been active and like being outside. When I was growing up – we would drive everywhere. My father’s mother lived in Idaho and we lived in Maryland and every other summer we would drive from Maryland out to Idaho – taking about 5 days to make the trip out and 5 days to make the trip back. No one flew back then- I think the first time I took a plane was when I was 12 or 13 to North Dakota with my sister and grandmother to see my Aunt and Uncle. My first trip out of the country was when I was a junior in high school and we went to Bermuda. We LOVED Bermuda. We had never been anywhere tropical – never been snorkeling.. I loved it so much that I when I came back home I convinced my best friend that we had to go back the following year for our high school graduation.

After that – I knew I needed to travel and experience different places.
