Create Memories

We should explore the world’s beauty, one destination at a time, meeting people, and respectfully listening to their life stories. We learn new perspectives by building our understanding of others.  Travel with your eyes and heart open, and look closely for the little things — they are the most amazing.


“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness." (Mark Twain)


“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” (Gustave Flaubert)


“We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.” (Anonymous)


“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.” (Saint Augustine)


“In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.” (John Muir)


“God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.” (Genesis 1:10)

                  Bisti Badlands Trail 5.6 miles

                  Quite a remote hike on BLM land. No trail markers, no real trail. It was like walking through a desert of sand mountains. I had the trail downloaded on my phone.  Without that, it would have been so easy to get turned around and potetnially lost. 


                  Alien egg hatchery was worth the hike.  Some amazing view overall.
