.  I wasn’t sure how to start this blog so I decided to just jump in.  Just like exercising you never feel like you can do it because you are so out of shape.  I feel the same way about writing but I won’t get any better unless I just do it.

I am excited to share with you the adventures that I take with family and friends.  I love being outdoors and in nature.  The world is full of beautiful sites.  I have four children that I have taken on most of my adventures.  I have had a lot of people ask for advice on what trail or which trip would work for their family.  I thought this would be a great platform to share where to go and what works.  My kids are all grown so I might be taking along some adopted children on my treks so I can give a true report on what would work for a family.

Today I was by myself just running/walking the trails on Mount Diablo.  The sun was starting to set, a bit overcast and just perfect weather for the trail.
