A Red River Gorge cliff trail is a common sight in the Daniel Boone National Forest where this picture of a hiking trail was taken. These geological structures are difficult to capture in the park without a wide angle lens as they tower over the camera and if you back away trees get in the [...]

Ziplining Red River Gorge through a lush forest
During a recent trip to Red River Gorge I had a great adventure ziplining Red River Gorge for my first experience screaming through a forest. It was a unique way to see the forest. Read the above linked post to hear about my experiences with Red River Gorge Ziplining tours. Hear is one video not [...]

A Red River Gorge zipline tour adventure
During a Mother’s Day excursion to Kentucky, I was fortunate to experience a Red River Gorge zipline adventure. I once wrote a piece about adventure travel activities that do not really appeal to me. Ziplining was one of the five I chose. I was staying in a Red River Gorge Cabin Rental, and they have [...]

Trekking for kids in magnificent mystical Nepal
Welcome to magnificent mystical Nepal. So said the sign as we arrived in Kathmandu to begin a 3 week long journey working in an orphanage and trekking to Everest Base Camp. We were full of anticipation and wonder, hoping that Nepal would prove to live up to this promise. Combining my love of outdoor adventure [...]

Natural Bridge State Resort Park hiking to the arch
On a Mother’s Day adventure in Kentucky, we drove all night and arrived early to the Red River Gorge Area. Red River Gorge is in the Daniel Boone National Forest. Right next to the national forest is the Natural Bridge State Resort Park. Both are located about an hour southeast of Lexington, Kentucky. The highlight [...]

Chao Phraya wat in Bangkok Thailand
On a rare cloudy day in Bangkok, Thailand I took a Chao Phraya river cruise. Although it was cloudy, it was still hot and humid, so the breeze from flying down the river felt immensely refreshing. We stopped at Wat Arun, but we flew past this unknown wat on our way down the river. TT [...]

Welcome to the Hotel California in Rancho Mirage
The song Hotel California is not about any certain hotel, but if it was it sure could allude to the Westin Rancho Mirage Hotel in California. It is a place you can check in at any time, and you just will not want to leave. In this photo, the moon rises over the swimming pool, [...]

Perfume River boat in Vietnam
During a Perfume River boat tour near Hué in Vietnam, we saw several other boats along the way like this one adorning the Vietnamese flag. This tour winds its way down the river and stops at several Nguyen Dynasty tombs. It is a beautiful tour as the river is gorgeous and the tombs are very [...]

Illinois Beach State Park Dead River
If there is ever a time to visit the Dead River in Illinois Beach State Park it is a dreary spring day. Illinois Beach State Park is known primarily for its beach and Lake Michigan shoreline; however, there are a few inland trails worth a look as well. The Dead River is one of these [...]

Enjoying an outdoor café in Caen, France
There is nothing more European than enjoying the weather, conversation, and a beer or coffee at an outdoor café. While in Puebla, Mexico this year when I saw cobblestone streets occupied with many people sitting under canopies drinking beer and coffee I immediately thought the place felt like Europe. We have outdoor places to eat [...]
