'My Mama always said you've got to put the past behind you before you can move on.'-Forrest Gump No trip across the southwest would be complete without a stop at one of my all time favorite places, Monument Valley! Coming from Moab it isn't far but I miscounted my days and had a free evening. … Continue reading The Great Summer Road Trip (2024): Monument Valley

'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

It was just announced that this year, the endangered California Condor had a significant breeding season, both at zoos and the Grand Canyon flock. Yet less than 400 birds can be seen in the wild. Gus is turning 4 soon (😭) and found this video of the first time I put him in a harness. I wish I could say he has gotten better but that would be a lie. Thank you to @thefunkybadger for sharing that it was National Bison Day on Saturday. Signed by @barackobama in 2016, it highlights bison being our national mammal as well as conservation efforts that have brought the icon of the west back from brink of extinction. Throwback to a little Gus and his one true joy, puddles of the @discoverodessa dog park. So honored to be an executive board member of @juniorleagueofodessa and kick off the holiday spirit with them with our annual Merry Marketplace! How lucky am I to be surrounded by the most incredible women, who inspire me daily, and I get to call my dearest friends. It’s time!!!!!!! @juniorleagueofodessa annual Merry Marketplace opens its doors to the public Friday afternoon… @discoverodessa tradition to officially kick off the holiday season! Woke up to a bluebird sky in more ways than one. I cannot express the true joy, shock, tears shed, and hope after last night. It’s a great day to live in Texas, with many more to come. Congratulations @jamestalarico and @ginafortexas 🎉🎉🎉 We did it!!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow is Election Day! While I have my favorites, I just want you to vote! Especially those who live in @discoverodessa, where our voter turnout is horrible. Texas a whole ranks last in voting! So find your polling place and do the most important thing you can do as a citizen of this country!
