'Mama always said dying was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn't.'-Forrest Gump One of the reasons I was so keen on coming to Monument Valley was my deep love of the film Forrest Gump. It is my favorite film and by a significant margin. In my opinion, it is the perfect movie. … Continue reading Adventures in the American West: Forrest Gump Point

'So this is where God put the West.'-John Wayne To say that I loved Monument Valley would be an understatement. While I only spent one day at Monument Valley proper, I visited a total of three times! I was really excited about visiting for many reasons. Forrest Gump is my favorite film and the landscape … Continue reading Adventures in the American West: Monument Valley

Love seeing the US with my best Gus! Spent the weekend near Dallas @cedarhillstatepark with Gus! We camped, hiked, and enjoyed a Texas sunset over the lake! My first time and just a really lovely time! Gus and I spent the weekend at Cedar Hill State Park. It was the perfect opportunity to test out my new @ripskirt_hawaii Sport skirt and sun scarf! The fabric on both was amazing and so breathable because Central Texas is in denial its fall! While he was sad to not get to go to the Boo Ball last night, he was grateful for the flowers @basintheatreworks let me take home! On March 30, 1995 my mom died of breast cancer. I later learned she had discovered a lump in the shower and life happened. By the time she went to a doctor, the cancer had spread and she died less than a year after her diagnosis. While I never got to hear @johnanderson live, I did get to hear @sierraelizabethferrell perform one of my all time favorite song of his, ‘Years.’ Thank you for some of my favorite songs, may the music continue on forever. Bought tickets for two concerts next year and thus, Gusbug and I are headed to an East Coast road trip! By far one of the coolest moments of my life. Captures how I feel visiting my hometown, Lake Arrowhead. It’s a place filled with nearly all the memories of my mom but also where they ended. Hard to imagine so much tied up into only 8 years there with her.
