Planning Our Drive to Alaska

by Kim

Map of the driving route from Denver, Colorado to Anchorage, Alaska.

I’ve done my fair share of road trips over the years, but never one quite like this… The distance we’ll be covering moving from Denver to Anchorage almost doesn’t seem real looking at it. That’s a helluva long way. Just how long is the drive? Well, it sure isn’t short. Here are some numbers for […]

What I’ll miss about living in Denver (& Colorado)

by Kim

Fruita Canyon View at Colorado National Monument

Today is the last day in our home. Our stuff has been moved out, the walls are bare and the warm sunlight falls on the floor alone. Since we know we’ll be back to visit, leaving isn’t as hard as it could be. But still, there are things I’ll miss about Denver… Sunny Days It’s […]

We have just about 1 month now until we start our long trek up to Alaska and it’s beginning to feel like major crunch time. Nothing like a glance at the calendar to help get your ass in gear. As I mentioned in a previous post about downsizing, one of my biggest goals was to […]

Amidst the massive downsizing that has nearly consumed my every thought and movement, I recently had the opportunity to check out some ski resorts that I’d never been to despite having lived in Colorado nearly all of my life. My husband had some business meetings up in Aspen, so I accompanied him up to the […]

by Kim

In January of this year, I finally upgraded my old Blackberry. The photos were pretty shite and I didn’t really take them seriously. Enter the iPhone. Now I’m far from being a fan of Apple’s stuff.

Do You Need More Photo Gear?

by Kim

The holiday season will soon be upon us and I’ve been starting to think about what goodies I could put on my wish list. It seems like there’s always some photography-related gadget I’m coveting, and I’ll think, “If only I had __________, then I’d really be ready to _________.” With photography, it’s so easy to […]

10 Touristy (But Must-see) Things to Do in Boston

by Kim

With 4.5 million people in the greater-Boston area, it’s nearly impossible to pick the “best” sightseeing attractions since the city’s not exactly small. Everyone obviously has different tastes and preferences, so what might appeal to one person, another might not find interesting. But, if I had to choose the top sights in Boston for a […]
