The colorful terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs welcomed us to the park three days in a row–talk about an entrance! Finally, on the third day, we were able to stop off and explore around.

For all of my outdoorsy folks, who enjoy a lovely vista and smaller crowds, this is 100% the National Park for you!
Continue readingI can hear you now. Another July hike, Lynette? Yes. Another one. Spoiler alert: there’s even MORE on the way!
The video for Cape Lookout is posted on our YouTube channel, as well!
Continue readingFirst off, if you received a post about Kauai in your inbox last Sunday-ish, I’m so sorry! An inexplicable WordPress gremlin managed to post that one again. Ugh. Technology some days. Okay, onto the real fun for today!
Maybe it’s obvious from our previous trips to Warrior Rock or Cape Disappointment, but there’s something I can’t help but appreciate when it comes to lighthouses.

But I feel like it. Too much tangent? Okay, I’ll stop. The fact remains: sometimes a simple hike is all you need in life.
The Sol Duc Falls (aka Soleduck Falls) hike, just happens to be the inspiration for my new Pinterestingly, Instagrammable quote (insert all appropriate hashtags here). PS. You can watch the video of our hike HERE!
Continue readingThe old adage is to do one thing every day that scares you. During our hike up TDH (I cannot keep writing it out. Sorry not sorry), I did that thing, for a couple of hours straight. Hiking in snow scares the you know what out of me. But let’s be real, the payoff was worth it.

PS. The video is mostly of the initial hike up to the Mirror Lake area…things got a little weird with our GoPro after we started up TDH (hence why the video is called the Mirror Lake Trail).
Continue readingWow. These falls are epic, and the name is epically redundant! Once we got to them, the falls were RIGHT THERE. And flowing quickly!
