Valley Forge – May 14

“We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience.” George Washington Today we adventured around the entirety of Valley Forge National Park. We were both amazed at how close the park is to a bigger city. At first, we …

“Life, if well lived, is long enough” – Seneca

I sure hope we've been living well. It sure seems like we have. We've done so much in the past year that it's a bit hard to know where to start. Last we left off we were maybe a few days into our two week trip through the NC mountains. It was a very incredible …

Days 2 & 3 – Western, NC State Parks

The morning of day two was foggy. Foggy like “The Mist”, foggy. I also forgot to mention that it rained quite a bit during our first night with great thunderstorms, but we stayed cozy, dry, and comfy in the teardrop. Seriously, if you enjoy camping but hate having to deal with the cold, the wet, …

Dessert in the desert

Preface Rachel told me that my blog posts are too long.  I'll see if I cant keep this one shorter. So this goes back to an earlier post where I let my 1st world problem of cooking on a MSR single burner, multi-fuel stove spill over as a complaint.  Yea I know, not the best …

Let’s shed some light on the situation

From the Jay Peterman Co. Catalog: "We arrived at the Refuge du Gouter high in the French Alps sometime in the late afternoon. The sun setting, orange light refracting off the blue glacial ice making it look as though it had burst into flames.  Here, at these alluring heights, I now knew what Dante's hell …

Earl Grey aka The TC Teardrop

I grew up spending the majority of my time outside.  From around age 5 until I was 18 and left for college, I lived at summer camp.  Yep, you heard me right, a real-life summer camp. Summer romances, drinking my first beer on the dock, arts and crafts, lifeguards at the pool and a lake …

387 Days Gone By

Y'all. It's been more than a year since our last blog post. So, naturally, apologies are in order. And although we've been failing to share our updates and most recent adventures, we haven't been sitting idle. We've done SO MUCH in the past year that I've (Rachel) honestly been waiting to share these updates all …

Welcome to our travel blog!

There is a lot of bullshit floating around in the world right now.  Like trying to swim in a swimming pool of pudding. No, I've never swum in a swimming pool of pudding, but I can imagine that it would be a wonderful nightmare.  Trying to keep your head above water while sucking down the delicious and …
