Road Trip!

When I was 17 and a senior in high school, I was dating a guy that was in his first year of college. His friends and him decided to take a road trip to Virginia for spring break and I joined them! I missed a week of school but it was well worth it. We ended up staying in Virginia for a night on a mountain top and woke up with ice on our tent. So we ended up driving all the way to the Gulf of Mexico in Panama Beach City, Florida. We camped at St.Andrews State Park in a tent which is a horrible idea. We were right on the bay and on our first night and alligator came up to our tent and ate half of our food including a squirrel. THANK GOD it didnt' eat us!

Sweet Deal!

L.L Bean is a great company to buy camping gear, outdoor clothing, all weather boots, and so much more! They have a 100% guarantee. If you bought boots 30 years ago and they ripped 10 years ago but you never returned them, you still have a chance! This company sticks to what they mean and their products are awesome. Here's your proof!

Colorado!

Colorado!! A few weeks ago i ventured off to Denver and Boulder colorado all by myself! It was my first airplane ride by myself and I stayed with my best friend of about 8 years. We camped, we enjoyed the outdoors, and we were merry with everyone around us. Such a great adventure. I used Hipmunk.com and found airplane tickets last minute for $200 round trip....such a bargain and so worth every penny! :)

This is me standing on top of the mountain we camped on after we watched the sun rise over the alpine groves. Note: we chose a random spot in the woods, this is the true wilderness and not a campground site.

This is an elephant at the Denver Zoo. Elephants are good luck people!

This is a beautiful church that we encountered on our way down the road through Boulder county. To the side of it on higher ground stood a beautiful statue that I believe was Jesus pointing to the sky. Behind the church is Mount Meeker, one of the largest mountains in Boulder County
