I’ve had it with the same old New Year’s Resolutions. There’s so much more that I want to do rather than becoming a member of the “I resolve to lose weight club!” Been there, done that. I already make my kids my priority, love my job, meditate daily, and I’m kind to animals. [...]

I’m yearning to take an all girls long weekend break. I admit, I’ve never done this before, but when I heard about Wintermoon Summersun Adventures in Brimson, Minnesota, I made it my goal to recruit three girlfriends and my two daughters and see if we could all agree on one weekend, not a [...]

The greatest part of traveling is the people I meet. When I was in New York, I met Amy Pedersen, from Atlanta. She’s a writer, I’m a writer, she immediately started telling me all about her brand new product, Slimpressions®, which is underwear.
I guess I looked like I needed some help. I had just [...]

During the summer you can go there for a one week of Camp for all ages: intense music-making, dancing, eating, talking, laughing, communing with nature, and [...]

Leave No Trace Behind while drinking hot chocolate. I had a summer job working in Alaska’s Denali National Park, performing living history vignettes for visitors on women in the gold rush and conservation. On my day off, I was one of 51 other people signed up for an eight hour bus trip into Denali [...]

I wish I was in the Everglades right about now instead of here in extremely cold, more snow expected, Connecticut! One year ago I was the writer-in-residence in the Everglades National Park. There’s a national program that I want everyone to know about. You too can apply and who knows where you could be spending [...]
