Finally…The Wave

Another “to hell with it” travel adventure is complete for me. Or is it only getting started? For the past six or seven years, I have attempted to get a permit for The Wave, a unique rock formation out along the Arizona/Utah border. Only 20 people per day are allowed to visit The Wave (in … Continue reading Finally…The Wave →

Rim-to-Rim

Last week I spent two days in one of the most beautiful and picturesque places on the planet, and I didn’t take a single picture. For those two days, my camera was in a nearby pocket, either in my shorts or in my pack, at the ready to be taken out and used till the … Continue reading Rim-to-Rim →

19-Mile Bluegrass River Run

My blog has been dormant this year because I haven’t been on any adventures. Now that the math semester is over, my attention has turned to doing the things I have spent the semester planning and dreaming. After my long “successful” kayak ride in the ChattaJack 31 back in October, I wanted to evolve from … Continue reading 19-Mile Bluegrass River Run →

2018 Roadtrip Finale

Besides sitting around, trying to stay warm, and waiting for New Year's, I’m never sure what to do during that week after Christmas. This past year, we decided to take a roadtrip. Some of my roadtrips are for the purpose of collecting counties (and seeing new places!). Some roadtrips are just to be on the … Continue reading 2018 Roadtrip Finale →

Driving South Texas

I returned home last week after doing one of my County Road Trips in Texas. I flew into Harlingen, which is down in the bottom corner of Texas, rented a car, spent a week driving through 73 new counties, and then returned to Harlingen. I did some sight-seeing and some music-listening along the way, but … Continue reading Driving South Texas →

New York City Ramblings

Last week, I took my first trip to New York City, staying for five nights at a basic little Comfort Inn in Hell’s Kitchen. Nothing fancy but, if you know me well, you know I’m not close to fancy. I picked this hotel for the price and its location; it was in a NYC neighborhood … Continue reading New York City Ramblings →

Chattajack 31

Well, I’m not a kayak racer, and I don’t have a racing kayak. I’m just a random guy seeing what he can do in his Hurricane Santee 120 Sport Recreational Kayak. This kayak isn’t designed to go fast like most of the other kayaks and SUP racers I was lined up with in Chattanooga this … Continue reading Chattajack 31 →

Car Wheels

Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, one of the better albums I’ve ever enjoyed, turns twenty years old this year. I was only slightly familiar with Lucinda Williams at the time it was released, and I had never owned any of her music. She had a duet with Steve Earle in 1996 on his (to … Continue reading Car Wheels →
