A local haunt hosting Mt Rainier. My wide angle lens always makes the mountain look so small. What are your weekend plans? It's coming soon!

I’m a sucker for the light blue water of an alpine lake but this trip I discovered that frozen lakes are pretty cool too. Not to worry, I only stood on a shallow spot near the shore //

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?

"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?

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?

Already missing summer days with good friends in beautiful places 🗻 We are now getting into the holidays where I feel like everyone's schedules are crazy busy right before the lull of the new year so I haven't been seeing too many people lately. If I'm being honest the weather change and darkness also doesn't quite motivate me socially lol. January, February, and March always seem to have this calmness and slowness to me though so hopefully I'll be able to work hard on some goals for 2020 and also socialize again! I miss so many of you! Who else can relate?

"Rise above the storm and you will find the sunshine". This couldn't have been any more true on this day as we drove through miles of rain and fog worrying that we had made a big time-consuming mistake. As we winded further and further up the road the fog started to slowly break away and the sun started shining through. Once we got on the trail and climbed even higher the fog and clouds below us put on a show and the sunshine made the trail hot! We drove back home in rain again and couldn't believe how lucky we got. I don't mind hiking in rain, snow, fog, etc. but don't always write off the day as a bad weather day because honestly you just never know what you're going to get in the mountains.

A steamy soak in a hot spring on a cold fall or winter morning is always a magical and relaxing time 🛀 We are still working out plans for next weekend but we are thinking of doing a mini road trip to either Oregon, Canada, or Idaho to check out some hot springs and do some hiking and/or camping! I've been wanting to do Idaho and also see more of Canada and Oregon for awhile now but the drive times are so lengthy so hopefully it works out! Staying in Washington would still be fun too though!
On that note, Joe and I are starting our own holiday traditions this year now that we are married and our own little "family". Every other year we will spend the holidays doing our own thing and the next year will be spent with family whether it's his side or my side and so on and so forth. On our years where it's just the two of us we'll be either adventuring or doing our own dinners at home. More often than not we will be adventuring because everything will most likely be cleared out on days like Thanksgiving & Black Friday which means we'll get some cool outdoor gems all to ourselves! It's also nice because when we have vacation time we would prefer to use it to travel abroad so long holiday weekends are great for exploring more of our region/the states! What are some of your holiday traditions?

Village Lifestyle !
Georgia has 12 different climate zones, ranging from subtropical to alpine to semi-desert, and has 49 types of soil. This makes Georgia one of the most ecologically diverse countries on Earth. In addition, many of the most exciting animals like leopards, lynxes, and bears reside in the dense forests of the country. . .1 48 20 November, 2019

You never know what someone is really hiding behind a smile. We are all going through our own battles, big or small, and dealing with our own personal demons and obstacle courses in life. Some days are good and some days totally suck. You never know how lost someone is feeling or what they are struggling with even when they don't show it. I guess all I'm trying to say is to remember to be kind to others and try to reach out to your friends and family members. You never know what state of mind they are currently in and how much just saying "hey, how have you been" or "want to grab a coffee soon?" can mean to them. Even if they keep it short and don't seem to want to communicate or hang out (which is common with depression and anxiety), I can definitely say from experience that knowing that you thought of them really helps. Also this is not a cry for help, just having some thoughts today and I know this can apply to a lot of people out there. If anyone ever needs someone to talk to or hang out with, I'm here and I love listening. We don't even have to talk. We can just sit or walk in silence and enjoy each other's company. Sometimes that's all it takes too.

Happy Monday! Just a little reminder that you can handle anything the week throws at you! And if you need a little help there's always coffee in the morning & wine at night to get you through it lol! Just kidding...kind of. But on another note I've been trying to set mini goals for the week each Monday. I've still been struggling to get my gym routine back in check since Italy & have only been going about 3 times a week, plus at least 1 hike on the weekends. Last week I did start to incorporate my morning runs back in and got 3 small runs in at home, 3 days at the gym, and hiked this weekend. I also pushed myself hard on my lifting days to get back to normal & hope to hit some new PR's soon. Lastly I cooked healthy all week!
This week I hope to hit 5 days at the gym which is what I usually strive for, 1 active rest day hiking, and try my best to only have ONE cheat meal this coming weekend. I've been setting myself way back each weekend and I'm not proud of it lol 😅 I've been feeling sick though so I'm not going to be too mad if 5 days doesn't happen. I also hope to read at night at least 3 times this week. I have a book I'm almost finished with and another I've started as well! What are your goals for this week, personal and/or professional?

Head in the clouds on a Monday morning ☁️ The start of a new week always has me feeling a little cloudy but I'm always grateful for a chance to start it off strong, set mini goals, and crush them. Do you have anything you're really excited about this week and/or hope to accomplish?

Beat the rain and grey skies today up at Hurricane Ridge! The first time we hiked these trails last year it was so crowded but early this morning there was hardly anyone and it was awesome! It started off with this really cool moody wispy fog with sunlight popping through which made for some cool shots that I'll be sharing on my stories later when I'm finished editing photos. Then as we got higher up it cleared off and we felt on top of the world with the clouds and fog below. We've had a few weeks off from hiking so it was nice to break into it again with some easier trails and loved that we didn't get soaked today lol! We had a couple other trails in mind in the Snoqualmie area or the Chinook Pass area which I'm pretty sure would have definitely been wet and socked in so I'm happy with our Sunday Funday! More pics to come to my stories and feed later on. 😊☁️

The mountains are my bones,
The rivers are my veins.
The forests are my thoughts,
And the stars are my dreams.
The ocean is my heart,
And it’s pounding is my pulse.
The sounds of the Earth,
Write the music of my soul.
I am one with the universe! 🙏🏼 Would you jump in too? 💦💦

You will meet many types of people in your life. You will meet delicate flowers, raging oceans, quiet forests, towering mountains, and colorful skies. You will meet thunderstorms, you will meet lightning. You will meet sunrises, you will meet gardens. They will knock you down and they will leave you breathless. They will give you light, they will take you on adventures. Explore all of them, get lost with them. They all have something to teach you 🌊🌿

You know that feeling when you wake up from a deep sleep but still feel like you’re living in a dream? That’s exactly what waking up to this view on the #washingtoncoast was like! Definitely check it out if you’re ever in the PNW!
