Campgrounds, Curveballs, and Cold Beers
This summer was supposed to be spent in the great state of Wyoming, checking off some more national parks. The President and Mr. Musk had different plans. Due to the federal cuts, the national park scene has a lot of uncertainty.
Chateau Le Coeur
Just a short ways off of I-10 you will find a winery named Chateau Le Coeur. The owners moved to northern Florida from the Great Northwest. They have wineries and vineyards in Washington and Oregon. They have an interesting story they tell about starting the winery.
Sunday Morning Musings Ep. #6
“We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.” – T. S. Eliot
WildEdge Brewing Collective
The food was delicious, at least the chicken salad sandwich, was very, very good. The locals were friendly and as I often do I spent a few beers in bar side communion with them. I am a little bummed that I did not pick up any packaged beer or swag from here.
Sunday Morning Musings Episode #5

Stairway To Heaven, Hiking Angels Landing In Zion
Or Not! Oh yes you can definitely describe Angels Landing as a stairway to heaven. I would say that it’s important to keep you eyes on the heavens when trying to hike it. Now, it’s hard not to look down and let’s face it that’s part of the thrill I guess. However, I recommend you…
Sunday Morning Musing Episode #4
I setup the camper this afternoon just outside the gates to another beautiful National Park. I’m close enough to log off at the end of the day and be on a hiking trail 15 minutes later. For this I’m thankful. I’ve experienced so much in a short period of time. By the end of this…
