When I camped with Sue in December of 2017 in the new winter backcountry hot tent I'd made, we had an amazing time. We decided we would do another trip soon, but schedules conflicted and events arose and even though we hung out at the Outdoor Adventure Show and kept in close contact, visiting each other etc, the earliest trip we could plan together was labor day weekend. We discussed it and put it on [...]

Last year, I had the privilege of being invited to shadow the kayaking courses at the Women on Water Paddling Festival. It was great fun and I learned so much. When I was asked to come back again this year, to teach basic kayaking, I agreed wholeheartedly and couldn't wait for the event to arrive. I left off in Part 1 with the sun setting on Saturday. This post begins on Sunday with a whole [...]

It was Sunday, February 25, Day Two of the Outdoor Adventure Show for me! I woke up feeling very tired and already having a slight headache, I wasn’t quite sure if I should just head home, or head back to the show? After getting up and getting ready, putting some peppermint oil on underneath my Lure buff, a.k.a. today's head bandage, I decided I would be good for a few hours. I was very excited to [...]

Every year about this time I get super excited because I know that it’s almost time for the Outdoor Adventure Show! It is one of my favorite events of the entire year. My first year attending was in 2016 with my mom, and last year was my second year attending. It was last year that I said to myself, next year, I will be presenting here. So, this year was extremely special to me [...]

A few weeks before the hot tent was done, I 'd made plans to take it out into the backcountry with my friend Sue, from Sue's Outdoor Crew. She had spent the weekend before making a sled so she could carry her gear on it and some of the items needed for our weekend. The day before our trip, we had some issues locating a good spot to camp as it's very difficult to find [...]
