Do the Thing β€” 52 Hikes With Mike I was looking back at all of the adventures I’ve taken and I have one takeaway - Do the thing. JUST DO THE THING. Did I always have the money? No. Would I recommend going anyway? Probably. Do the ...

Concept of Home β€” 52 Hikes With Mike I saw a quote the other night that said β€œI’m homesick for a place that no longer exists” and it gutted me. As I’m moving, I’m having all of the feelings and memories come up from past places and days...

You ever have one of those days (weeks) where every little thing feels like it went wrong and then it all snowballs and your mood is just constantly sad and irritated? Yeah... I'm trying, deep breaths.

Get What You Want β€” 52 Hikes With Mike Sometimes you just don’t get what you want in life. This is no surprise and certainly something I’m used to happening. We may not get what we want, but it often leads to what we need. I’ve been str...

I haven’t really lived somewhere with consistent snow in probably well over a decade but for some reason when it’s up there, it’s just wonderful

Winter at the Cabin β€” 52 Hikes With Mike One aspect of why moving to Duluth is so appealing is the proximity to my friend’s cabin. The cabin is up in the middle of nowhere, off the grid, and always a good time even when there’s work to do t...

My sleep has been messed up since Houston. My knee is still scraped to hell but healing. I hope to get back to normal by next week.
