It’s been a while since I’ve brought you a post on one of my hiking excursions. I must confess, in the excessive heat of mid-summer, I wimped out and took a break from hiking. I started to really miss it though. Spending hours on the trail, breaking a […]
Pink pink everywhere. With feathers, beaks and feet Pink just seems to be on the move. Should they look this away, or that away. Just who is the bigger pink? A little nibble here, a little nibble there. Pink is in constant motion. I think I need a […]

One of my favorite things to do when traveling is to visit local grocery stores and markets. In many developing countries, fresh food markets are still where the locals shop instead of the sterile grocery stores more progressive countries have. The San Pedro Central Market in Cuzco, Peru […]
