Hi there! Welcome to my photo album and travel page. I've lived and traveled all over - but moved back to Tennessee. There's something about the South that draws its people back - kind of like a vortex.

How could anyone not love New Orleans. My sister, best friend and I try to make a trip every year - which we will definitely continue doing. We gotta support New Orleans and help our friends and family down there.
Anyone who doesn't believe in rebuilding, well, I gotta disagree.

I keep telling myself someday I'll go back to Wyoming, just to see this great place! Momz and I found it while driving around aimlessly looking for I-90. I was on my way back from Oregon while we did a detour through Yellowstone and the Tetons. We kept going through Cody, and ended up in a pink quartz canyon somewhere near Big Horn National Monument. I think it's called Shell Canyon. It was very beautiful and unexpected, rising out of the desert and overlooking the Plains.

This is a picture of the vehicle that has taken me so many places! My wonderful car - the VW Golf - (aka the Pantyhose Egg) has allowed me to take many of these pictures. I love my little rollerskate car! It's still going after all of the abuse.

I'd really like to go to:
Croatia
Costa Rica
Latvia
Hong Kong
Turkey

My favorite places:
Idaho
New Orleans
Barcelona
Beachy Head, England
Manzanita Beach, Oregon
Vancouver, BC

I finally made a commitment
and bought a house.
It's kind of scary to voluntarily put
yourself in debt for the next 30 years, but it is cool being able to do anything I want to my own house.

Here's my crib located in Red Bank, Tennessee. The asbestos gives it character.
