keep off the dunes

Oh man, oh man! Take me back to Outer Banks with bike rides ‘o plenty! Nike Flex on the feet make me happy. And so do Gap sports bras.

one if by Portland, two if by sea

Take a look at the Willamette River, folks! And take a look at the great view it boasts. Since the last few posts have been about Portland, I thought we could go a little deeper and learn some interesting facts about this great city. Here we go! Portland was named by the flip of a…

good food, good beer, and the best sneaker sightings

Downtown Portland is fun too. Sometimes I forget because I love exploring the nature that surrounds the city so much. But this place is jam packed with good food and good beer. I ate a food truck almost every day and I wore lots of plaid. Plus, how cute is the little lady in the last…

The world’s worst boat driver– that’s me!

After my recent helicopter adventure in Chicago, it was time to bring the excitement to the water.

you can call me Rebar Girl!

So I just got back from spending the weekend in Nashville. It’s a lovely place, but I’m not so sure I belong there. It’s the land of country music and cowboy boots. It seems that I should fit right in, being from Texas and all, but I can’t say that I do. Any place that has…

off-road in ACG

I wore the heck out of my Nike ACG Boots while I was in Seattle and the surrounding areas. I came back with some great shots and 5 pounds of rocks. It was so peaceful out there. Your sole can just step back and take a breath. What would we do without nature to fuel…

sunless Seattle

Last week I went to Seattle for a couple of days. What a great city! And what a great place for a night stroll, as long as you stay dry and warm. I wandered around Pike Place Market for a bit. Did you know it opened in 1907? That makes it one of the oldest…
