I’m so happy I didn’t cancel my trip to Japan (thought about it!) and feel SO lucky to get to see these snow monkeys in the wild in the mountain hot springs of Nagano. This is one of those experiences you remember forever—and I get to spend another day with them today 🤩

I know this is cheesy, but I’m going to say it anyway: Don’t forget to show up for yourself. For awhile I stopped doing my long weekend runs and I’ve been back at it for several weeks and it makes all the difference. Whatever your thing is, don’t stop doing it!

Canada is so appealing in so many ways! :) check out this pristine wilderness in BC at the Great Bear Rainforest.

large brown bear in Alaska surrounded by greenery looking straight ahead toward the camera

Every year when I start thinking about where I most want to travel, Alaska and its #nationalparks always seem to be top of mind... :)

Sunrise last week at the “Black Pearl” ocean-on house in Rodanthe, North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

Hand holding a black seashell on the seashore of North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

Spent the last month in North Carolina’s Outer Banks - so great during the off-season! Caught the sunrise last week at the beloved “Black Pearl” ocean-on house in Rodanthe … and found a perfect shell to match. ;)

Black wolf looking straight at the camera. Pine forest behind. Yellow eyes.

We were seeing a 98% drop in exposure over on Twitter. The censorship was so extreme we thought it best to start over somewhere else. We chose Bluesky.
