Gilli, Gianna, and the Giant Sea Turtle

We are always glad to go on an adventure. It is truly special when you get to share that adventure with someone. At the end of May in 2015 we took a few members of our family to Kauai with us. We spent 10 days exploring, hiking, and snorkeling across the island. In this short clip, Gillian (Age 7) and Gianna(Age 15) got the chance to snorkel with a giant sea turtle at Anini Beach. An experience neither of them will soon forget.

Moab, UT - Fins N Things Part 1

Our second day in Moab, UT brings us to the Fins N Things trail. This was Debbie's first experience with a challenging trail and she did awesome. As with all things in Moab, the views are spectacular and the wheeling a challenge. Fins N Things in particular is mostly slickrock with some sand thrown in for good measure. We were fortunate that it had rained the day before making for little or no dust, beautiful cloud formations, and spectacular scenery.

Big Island Hawaii - Helicopter Flight Canyons and Waterfalls

The Big Island of Hawaii has the most diverse climates of any island in the Hawaiian chain. Everything from desert to rainforest. On this island is a protected canyon which can only be reached by foot or helicopter. In this canyon are some of the most spectacular waterfalls the world has to offer. Waterfalls tumble hundreds of feet to land in a pool carved out of the cliffside then to fall some more into two or three more pools. Literally small ponds on the side of a cliff. The beauty is so striking it can bring you to tears. Look for the crashed WWII bomber about 3:27.
