Музыка, кино и книги

I love our local music scene and going to music festivals.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I am often awestruck when I am in Michigan's Upper Peninsula (we go every winter) - what a wild place that is. I love frozen Lake Superior and cross country skiing in the Porcupine Mountains on a few feet of fresh, powdery snow. Snow in general gets me really excited wherever I can enjoy it. I love to visit natural places (preferably backpacking in to get totally away from cars and buildings) - some that stick out are: Lake Michigan, dunes, Picture Rocks, Crater Lake, Oregon coast, Redwood Forests, Yosemite, Death Valley, Bristlecone National Forest, local farms, and even the woods near Kalamazoo.

Giving birth was such a magical, amazing powerful experience! Nothing can top that.
