Dear Thirty Three me,
WAY TO GO! The lessons learned and internal transformations over the last year have been intense, at times exciting and needed more now than ever 🖤
You stepped out of your comfort zone and rose to the challenge of an entirely different lifestyle, truly an alternative life path. Different from quite literally almost every person you know. You’ve learned to trust your gut, your God and your husband in deeper ways than ever before. Faith has risen, many times it’s been the only fathomable option in times of trouble. Fear has come in like a flood too, this year has been learning how to silence those voices and move forward in confidence, while living, loving, creating and sharing from the heart.
33 was one for the books. Fears were faced while learning to steadily relax into this new lifestyle. Abandoning all other voices, learning to listen to inner self grew into authentic self love, the kind that most would try to have you believe is ridiculous, flourished. Healing happened. A family that is non-traditional and amazing in all of the ways, was formed.
Faith. Family. Fun. That was 33.
I’m blessed beyond my wildest dreams, 34, let’s do this!
xo,
Thirty Four Me
Dear Thirty Four me,
Don’t forget to breathe and raise a Hallelujah in the hard times, it’s what got you through this last year. I’m sure it’s what will get you through all that 34 has to bring.
xo,
Thirty Three Me

Finally taking a moment to share some pics from our Alvord Desert adventure last month. We popped around from one hot springs to another on our drive, and nestled for a few days in the awesome bunkhouses at the @alvordhotsprings Getting dusty on the playa, singing our favorite road tripping tunes, celebrating this beautiful life.

After 39k miles together, I finally gave her a name. Everyone, meet Josie! She protects me from the rain, give me warmth, and more importantly takes me to places I have never been before. We been on all kinds of roads; smooth, rough, straight, curvy, snowy, icy, muddy, sandy. You name it, we’ve experienced it. She is the prefect car for my #exploringsoul .

I’ve been thinking of this place,
And how the stars shone so bright.
Distant from the human race,
All it’s rules and street lights.
Out in the desert the vibe was good,
People were chill, taking it all in.
Different mountains, far from Hood,
But any time in nature with friends is a win!

Alvord Desert photos from a road trip with the dudes @rparis74 and @dancefloorbathroom a few months back. You lose all sense of direction out there. Flying across the wide open desert, whiskey during sundown. We stayed in a bunkhouse (great find Rodney) at the Alvord Hot Springs which was far more comfortable than it looks. .

I absolutely loved this hot spring in the Alvord Desert because you can control the heat and keep it nice and toasty your whole soak! In fact sometimes it got too hot in there which is even better when the weather is below the 20s! We were surprised that there were 3 other small groups here during Thanksgiving and the bad weather but it was still very quiet & private, especially since we picked a campsite way in the back against the playa and were the only ones camped back there. You can camp on the playa for free but when it's wet from rain or snow it isn't advisable to go out there since it gets crazy muddy and your car can get stuck so if you're coming out here and run into bad weather the Alvord Hot Springs is a good alternative to camp at.
You can pay $30 to camp which includes fire ring, access road to the playa, free hot spring soaking at any hour, and free use of the clean (flushing!) bathroom. You can also pay $60 to use one of their bunkhouses instead which is like a metal container with heat & beds. To me it was a bit pricey for a campsite but being able to soak in the springs whenever you wanted, access to a clean bathroom, and use the playa access road at anytime was a plus (also wasn't a ton of options in this weather lol). You can also have a fire at this campground but no open fires are allowed on the playa based on my research. Alternatively you can try to find a free BLM campground or camp on the playa in good weather but still use the springs by paying $8 for day use to soak from 8am-10pm and $5 for use of the playa access road. We did see a free access road near here but it was steeper than the campgrounds access road and with the snow it seemed a little sketchy but we think we'll try using that access next summer when we're back! Have you been to the Alvord Desert?

"If the desert is holy, it is because it is a forgotten place that allows us to remember the sacred. Perhaps that is why every pilgrimage to the desert is a pilgrimage to the self. There is no place to hide and so we are found."
-Terry Tempest Williams

It’s fun when your hunting buddy is your brother. Gabe and his bro @boonerodriguez hunting Chukar in the Steens Mountains down in Southeastern Oregon. They made it out just as the ‘Bomb Cyclone’ Storm hit inland. Only a little white knuckle driving through the pass in the way back. Fun when you can catch you’re own (little) bird for Thanksgiving supper.

"The greatest part of a road trip isn't arriving at your destination. It's all the wild stuff that happens along the way". I mostly agree with that but I mean the final destination is usually pretty epic lol! Joe and I are actually used to driving a lot since we try to hike most weekends and our day trip drives range from 2 hours round trip (best case scenario) to 6-8 hours roundtrip depending where the hike is. This was our longest drive in awhile though which took almost 11 hours ONE way because of the bad weather and stops along the way. We had some hiccups on the way there and on the way back but overall the journey was so much fun with a lot of beautiful and funny moments.
The desert gives me so much nostalgia for my teen years in Texas and road trips in general give me nostalgia for childhood growing up as an Army brat and moving constantly. My favorite moment from this drive aside from the scenery and good conversation was definitely driving back home at night taking a different route than the one we came from and going down pitch dark frozen roads while listening to scary stories on Youtube through our car speakers and freaking each other out lol! We experienced this on empty desert roads and roads surrounded by thick dense forest while our brights lit up the trees and I half expected to see something lurking in the darkness. I love that Joe appeases to my horror addiction lol. What's the most recent road trip you've been on?

We had a blast this holiday weekend exploring the Alvord Desert covered in snow. Crazy beautiful place with a lot of solitude. Definitely will be back this summer when it is dry and clear to camp on the playa and do all the hiking we missed out on. This was also our first holiday trip as a married couple. We intend to keep the holiday trips tradition going every other year (so we will still see family on off years) and alternating between holidays. #alvorddesert #oregon

This little remote hot spring in the high desert was one of my favorite experiences of the trip because we were the only ones here and it really felt like we were in the middle of nowhere. The snow had been falling since last night so the drive there was a little scary and eerie and we only saw 2 trucks going the opposite direction. We were worried the spring wouldn't be warm enough but it was plenty hot and it was so peaceful soaking in the springs watching the snow fall around us and enjoying the quiet. I love how deep and wide the springs are, the soft squishy bottom, and the large flat rocks to sit on around the sides.
The gravel road is all season but the last bit is a soft dirt path that gets very muddy after rain and is impassable in a car. The snow and ice made it easy enough to drive but I wouldn't go when the snow melts or after rain unless hiking in (but not sure where you would park the car before the access road). There is a BLM campground here with picnic tables, pit toilet, and you can camp for free nearby and enjoy these springs. During good weather you can witness wildlife sightings supposedly and people have seen pronghorn antelope, coyotes, wild horses, rabbits, and deers. We camped at the Alvord Hot Springs because the playa was not safe to drive on with the snow and we only saw rabbits and birds but heard coyotes in the distance. I can't wait to go back to the Alvord Desert next summer to see the place without snow, camp on the playa, stargaze, and do the hiking we missed out on but I will say it was pretty magical with snow.

Hot spring soaks are 100x better in the snow! This was the 1st hot spring we got to enjoy this holiday weekend and it was amazing. The steam was crazy though and it was hard getting any good shots but the sunset was a golden pink fire! 🔥 Joe and I spent the last couple days in the Alvord Desert and it was so much fun! We didn't get to do any of the hiking we planned or camp on the playa because the snow came and covered everything and the playa isn't safe to drive on when it is wet since your car will most likely get stuck in the wet clay!
So we were a little bummed that we didn't get to see the desert looking like the Bolivia salt flats lol (especially since literally the past weekend it was dry and clear!) and there were also no stars out because of the snow clouds but we still had a lot of fun exploring this gorgeous area covered in snow, soaking in hot springs, camping, driving past abandoned stone houses, experiencing some epic desert sunrises & sunsets, and enjoying tons of solitude. We are already planning on coming back next summer ASAP to camp on the playa, hike, and do all the activities we intended to do and I can't wait! I also can't wait to see what other holiday adventures we will embark on in the future as we plan to do our own thing every other year! How was your Thanksgiving?
P.s. that golden orange pink sky in the 2nd clip 😍

They arrive this week!!! Also, keep a look out for more wool hats coming in December. I have ONE of these left! DM to claim😘

Driving back from Canada earlier this year, decided to take the less traveled Eastern Oregon route. Got lucky and a light rainstorm passed through, within 30 minutes all the water had been absorbed into the ground and we had mud splattered all inside the van #AlvordDesert #MitsubishiDelica

One thing I love about #vanlife is the night photography: being in the right place at the right time and having the storage capacity to bring a tripod and camera gear. I didn’t use my professional setup for a while after college, but now it’s all coming back (and getting covered with dust). How I know I’m living it up.
Thanks again to @the_ridge_way for a great trip! Now back to Washington... #icebergTheBeefy #getOutThere #vanLifeSpaceship #desertLife #AlvordDesert #LakePowell #adventureVan #camping #overland #4x4van #expeditionVehicle #everythingButTheKitchenSink #stargazing #nightPhotography #lightPainting

We may never know where our path may lead, but I know I am moving in the right direction.

This Tundra is rolling on 35 inch Ridge Grapplers with a 3 inch lift. Also it was blasting Soundgarden and Audioslave nonstop. Don’t judge, it was awesome. #overlanding #overlander #toyotatundratrdpro #overlandlife #adventurerig #rockout #tundrastoo #subourboncowboys #alvorddesert #offroaders #4x4offroad #dontjudge

The calm after the storm. Moving slow in the Alvord desert after a late camp set up...and even later "winding down". #alvorddesert #jeeplife #toyotalife #overlanding #subourboncowboys

The Alvord Desert, east of the Pueblo Mountains and Steens Mountain and north of the towns of Andrews and Fields, is among the largest playa lakes in Oregon. Playa lakes are formed when rainwater fills shallow, round depressions in the landscape, leaving behind precipitated salt minerals on the earth’s crust upon evaporation. This fault-bounded flat basin is a graben—that is, a basin down-dropped by faulting—about 8 miles wide and 70 miles long. It marks the easternmost part of Oregon’s Basin and Range. Steens Mountain, at 9,773 feet, rises more than a mile above the Alvord Desert, where the average elevation is about 4,060 feet. •

Throwback thursday: to the first time I finally got to camp under my airplane wing. This was an especially satisfying day because I got a job offer I was really excited for. So I got to submit my 2 weeks notice via email, then my camp cracked a bottle of (rather warm) wine to sip under that wing and wait for the most epic meteor shower to start and made some of the greatest friends who were game for my crazy adventures.
For as much as I love aerobatics I've always been pretty torn between that and off-strip flying. I also love the outdoors and camping this was definitely one of my favourite weekends. .

**You don’t have to fly around the world to see something beautiful.**
✨
You know those salt flats in Bolivia where everyone loves to take gorgeous reflection photos? Yeah, this isn’t there. This is the Alvord Desert in southeastern Oregon.
✨
I used to be one of those people who thinks America is boring and would rather hop on a plane to anyplace that requires a passport. But once we started traveling in our own backyard (because we wanted to shrink our carbon footprint AND our travel budget) we realized how much we were missing out on!
✨
Eastern Oregon has probably been our biggest surprise: Deserts, hot springs, volcanoes, painted hills, river canyons, wild horses, you name it - it’s here. More crazy sights you can find in Oregon at the link in our bio!
✨
Have you traveled much in your own backyard?

A guide to taking a good star photo:
-Spend 3 years figuring out how to use a camera.
-Invest small fortune in camera and gear.
-Make cool friends who invite you outside. -Drive 7 hours to meet up with said friends.
-Get @danfauss to stand really still on car.
-Press button.
The Alvord desert is an awesome place. The stars were absolutely unbelievable and the company was great. Thanks @northwestishpodcast for hosting an awesome meet up.
A special thanks also to @bigpawtours for hooking us up with the best camping and adventure set up I’ve ever used!
And even bigger thanks to @cateringhappytrails! They hooked us up with food for the whole trip, we had so much good food we ate better than we do at home and it was delicious!
