Alan and I initially had our inaugural camping trip planned for this weekend so it was already on both our calendars. After we bumped up our first trip to Redondo Campground in the Jemez Mountains to May, we decided to just keep the event on our calendar and make our second trip this weekend.
I was slightly more prepared than I was the first time, we faced more adversity and I accomplished more than I did in May. Read on to hear all about it!

I woke up early enough before Jarrod came over so I decided to take a Father’s Day hike with my fur baby.

Saturday night, I went to the Cottonwood Mall for the Cirque Italia presentation of Paranormal Cirque.
Scrolling through Facebook not too terribly long ago, I happened upon a sponsored post for a web store called Live A Great Story. The idea behind that phrase really spoke to me.

A month since my last hike, I was able to finally get out for a jaunt this morning. Read on for a recap of my experience on this quick morning hike.

Well, it’s official. Alan and I took our first camping trip over the weekend of . This was my first time ever tent camping and the first camping I’ve done at all in decades.
It was a life changing experience.
Less than a mile off of the Tijeras exit from Interstate 40, within a community known as Canyon Estates, is a trailhead that will eventually lead you over the ridge of Sandia Crest. Half a mile from that trailhead lies Travertine Falls.
It has been decades since I’ve last been camping, and truth be told, I don’t know that I’ve ever been tent camping. The only camping trips I ever remember taking have been in a camper or trailer, and I was a little dude so I didn’t even really have to make the plans. I just kind of… tagged along.
Hopefully that changes in a few short weeks.
