I love to travel and, two weeks ago, I got to vacate for the first time in a couple of years. What a great chance to leave it all behind, reset, and explore some new scenery! The destination? Portland, Oregon and environs.
But, as we all know- it's the journey, not the destination.
We hiked among and behind cascading waterfalls, drove over the snowy mountain passes and into the desert sunset, and enjoyed the good food and drink of the Pacific Northwest. It was a trip of wildflowers and stones, sun and storm, breathtaking views and wrong turns-- all fantastic.
I have luckily had the opportunity to travel occasionally over the years. A gift from my family early on that has grown into a fulfilling and enriching part of my life. For those of you who haven't tried it, I encourage you to explore its potential. Choose a journey and let yourself discover the wonder of a new experience. (PS- It doesn't always go smoothly, but that's part of the fun!)
For those of you who share my love of the great unknown, I'd love to hear your stories.
