Voting in Florida

I didn’t realize that we (Oregonians) are one of, if not the only state, that mails out ballots ahead of time.

Clash of The Retirees & The Working Class

I asked some local retirees if they had considered the strain they put on folks trying to commute to and from work. One senior replied, “Oh, that’s just fake news”.

Nevada/Arizona Road Trip

T-minus 7 days I randomly found a round-trip ticket to Vegas and back for $37 so that’s where I’m going in 7 days. Rented a SUV- $124/3 days The $37 does not even include a carry-on but luckily for me I use a very large purse lol and don’t need much to survive.

Flying With A Firearm

This was my first time flying with a gun. It was surprisingly easy, but probably because I did a lot of research ahead of time. I will just give you the plane facts right now (no pun intended) of what you need to know, with no filler material!! ** Please note, this is my experience.... Continue Reading →

Exploring the Wonders of Yellowstone: A Comprehensive Guide to Unforgettable Adventures in America’s First National Park (Yellowstone Is A Zoo. And We Are the Animals)

The Zoo Facility: $35 for a 7-Day Pass Sophisticated Aside Skip the Sophisticated Aside Allow me to embark upon this narrative with a dash of philosophical contemplation, if you will. Should you take but a moment to imbibe the profundity of this ostensibly unremarkable nugget of reality I recently encountered, it is quite plausible that... Continue Reading →

i don't know if it was the traveling.... or just the life experiences.... but, I've acquired an appreciation for the beauty around us. It's actually become hard sometimes to remember to just enjoy it, rather than capture it...

The Painted Hills, a Road Trip.

Any one of these cars could kill me. One sneeze, one text, one bad day… It's terrifying.Yet, jumping on the back of a Harley with a complete stranger, who just walked out of a bar, with no cell phone service, doesn’t even phase me.

9 Things I Wish I knew Before Traveling To Belize – Helpful Travel Tips for First Time Visitors

IF YOU ARE GOING TO AN ISLAND, BRING YOUR DRIVERS LICENSE. That may sound silly or obvious at first thought, but I almost left mine because I obviously had to bring my passport. That should be good enough, right?  My initial thought was to keep at least one form of identification safe, in off chance... Continue Reading →

In general, Belize is NOT cheaper than the US (for tourists). Taxi's, gas, and most booze, are actually more expensive. Gas was $7.50 USD when i was there. Lots of "wild" dogs in Belize City. The quotes are because I don't think they're actually wild. People just don't cage them like we do in the... Continue Reading →

I do this [obviously] so I can take care of my kid, but also because I love traveling... and buying shit. Even with the two jobs however, it’s not like I’m... Continue Reading →

Belize (Table of Contents)

This time around I'm taking a bit of a different approach, as far as telling my story goes... It can be daunting to try and cover everything I want, in a flowable manner; when my ADD-ass cant even carry-on a conversation about 1 topic for more than 30 seconds. SO -Throughout my trip I made...

Hawaii: Smoking on flights is prohibited in all flights worldwide, beginning from 1988, huh?…

It was my first trip to Hawaii... really it was my first trip anywhere that wasn't a hop, skip, jump, or Vegas, and I was still dating an ex of mine; an amazing human being (and probably the only one in the world that I feel guilty for being less than perfect to), yet -waaaayyyyy...

Traveling During the Pandemic: 14 flights, 12 airports, 8 states, 4 countries, 3 continents (a brief summary)

  The pandemic has been rough on everyone and every industry (less prescription drug). The travel/hospitality industry has been one the hardest hit.
