Table Rock Lake near Branson, Missouri, is a region that is filled with a wide range of adventurous opportunities. We were invited by Visit Table Rock Lake to discover the fabulous nature around the area, and we couldn’t wait to jump in and explore. Table...
One day many, many years ago, I read about a magical hot spring located in the remote lands of Alaska. Trees heavy with snow, steaming waters, and icicles growing on heads of hair, gave way to an otherworldly winter scene, and I knew we had...
Fairbanks is often regarded as one of the best places to see the northern lights, not only in Alaska and the United States but the world. So, it only made sense when we returned to Alaska for another winter visit, that we made searching for...
On our last day in Fairbanks, Alaska, we decided that we were going on an adventure. It didn’t matter that it was -29°F (-33°C) because we were ready to go snowmobiling at the North Pole. Okay…well we weren’t actually heading to the geographic North Pole, but...

Lutsen Mountains is one of our favorite spots in Minnesota. In the winter, you can ski, snowboard, snowshoe, and more at one of the best and largest ski resorts in the Midwest. And, in the summer there’s an entirely different, but equally fun set of...
We have long been believers that aerial views from above are some of the best views you can get, and zip lining is no exception. We’ve been zip lining in quite a few different locations over the years. Some of the spots we’ve zip lined...
