Get Outside And Play

It’s National Park Week. That’s right- MORE free stuff!

From April 17th-25th entrance to ALL 392 National Parks is free. Considering a lot of these spots are at least $20-$30 to get in on a regular day, this is a super deal. An idea as wedding season is coming up; I am all about an annual National Park Pass as a gift to encourage any new couple to explore our wide open incredible country together. There’s just nothing like standing under the Delicate Arch, going whitewater rafting through the Grand Canyon, or hiking Half Dome at Yosemite. (Check, check, check.) I mean 392 National Parks to explore and learn about?! What are we all waiting for?!
Sigh, this so makes me miss the open road and long for more 3 month cross-country road trips. There’s no better way to spend a few months in America in the spring or summer that trekking across our lands playing in nature. 
Get out and enjoy a freebie this week and get yourself all fired up for that longer adventure this summer. I’ll see you around the National Park circuit. 
Here’s to the open road!!!

Better Than A Fortune Cookie

For every schmuck out there, I truly believe there are double the amounts of ridiculously amazing, brilliant, genuine, honest and fun people. Even better when you meet those people who blindside you. (As in- you constantly scratch your head and think to yourself); I wouldn’t have believed for 6 million bucks, that there was anywhere near that much complete and utter awesomeness in that person. 

And then you are consistently and constantly pleasantly surprised. 
That makes me very happy. That’s my friend Greg.
The lesson here?
Give everyone a chance. Open yourself up to a complete stranger or someone who might look like they live in a totally different universe than you. It’s baffling to me how the same we all are and how much greatness is inside so many people out there that you’d never expect. When your world collides with someone who blindsides you in this fantastic way, you get these giant blinking billboard moments that scream to you that your path is exactly what is supposed to be and there’s no such thing as a mistake or luck.
Greg,
I cannot thank you enough. How will I ever compete with that piece of mail? Just awesome. You are a diamond that’s been hiding in the rough for sure. I am so, so happy for you for jumping into what you want like I have seen nobody before. Can’t wait for the next picture from the top of another snowy mountain or beach in the Cayman Islands. Get it!
I’m thinking that YOU might be the one that’s the Roadrunner…
