About Me
I’m a 30 something living in the metropolis of Burlington, Vermont. Grew up on edge of the Adirondack’s and set packing for six years to the beauty of Montana after high school, to care-free NYC for a couple of years (yeah I didn’t last long – I’m not a lifer) and now in Vermont and settling some roots down.
I’m just starting to hike the ADK High Peaks again and want to document that journey. Will I make it to hitting all 46 of them. Not sure. I’ll probably also post on other things. We’ll see how it goes.

Maine Magic: Family Vacay
After nearly 20 years we returned to where we used to go to for a summer vacation. It’s funny how “big” Kennebunkport Maine felt as a kid, and while still a great town, a smaller downtown than we remembered. So … Continue reading
