Spring is the time for TRAVEL

After working a few months for Vail Resorts I took a sabbatical to see part of America. The traveling season started out with a 5 day trek of the Grand Canyon. If going is not on your Bucket List it should be. Pictures cannot adequately portray the magnificent views and just how big the canyon is.  Being down at the bottom at Phantom Ranch is an experience not to miss as well. For those who aren't up to the 9.6 mile hike down and then back up there are mules to transport you and your backpack!

Next was a trip to California. Being an employee of Vail Resorts allowed me to snowboard at Heavenly Ski Resort for free. This was stop number one! Then on to San Francisco and down Highway 1. Cayucos is this beautiful little beach town and was stop number 3. LA was stop 4 and then on to Laguna Beach for a wonderful few days of rest and relaxation.

Philadelphia was the next trip.

I concluded the traveling season with a trip back home for a wedding at the end of May! Congrats!
