ABOUT ME

I live in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Usually I'm traveling with my nearly 4-year-old son Aedan. We have a beautiful, easy going, gentle, clean, quiet 9-yr-old Springer Spaniel mix named Lady -- she was a stray 8 years ago and is still the most obedient and people/animal-friendly dog I've met (not to boast, but to assure you and your home. we love animals). We want to take full advantage of the warm weather to get out, catch baseball games together, be outdoors, meet people and check out free/cheap stuff along the way. I worked over 5 years in Arizona for the Tohono O'odham Nation, on the second largest Indian reservation in the country. You can guess I like and learn from different experiences, and want my son to be able to share the same. He completely surprised me with this passion he has for baseball, so we go all in with it even though I don't have a baseball background myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

How about 5? My son. Every day in my 5 years of working and experiencing life on the Tohono O'odham Nation in Arizona, the 2nd biggest Native American reservation in the US. Camped 4 days on a plateau high in Central Mexico's desert. Spontaneously flew to Portugal to meet a new friend I had just made the week before. Every day of almost 2 weeks circling southern Ireland.

Teach, Learn, Share

My first thoughts --
sharing the outdoors around this hilly rivertown,
enjoying life through the eyes of a nearly 4-yr-old,
La Crosse Loggers baseball games June thru mid-August,
sharing what has wowwed you or me -- for me, it's too much to even get started into it now...
