New people, places, cultures and foods. We love to hit the road or skies and travel. We’ve make it a priority, and have had the good fortune to visit some amazing places.
Geoff is an avid kayaker, and Kim enjoys it too. We travel all over the state and occasional beyond in search of water to paddle.
My cousin had a 3 day visit this past weekend. We hadn’t seen each other in 20 years, so it was great to see each other and get to know each other better.

A few days before, my neuropathy was acting up, making my foot numb, and I …
The East Fork of the Carson flows with the melting snow, and heads east down the Sierra Mtns, into Nevada. It’s a class II+ run, but moves quickly.

We were going to my friends wedding (congrats Sara and Brett) in Northern California, and met up with our friends Paula and Erol and their gorgeous baby. We didn’t do much, ate lunch, walked around, had frozen yogurt, and ate crickets. Pretty mellow. But super fun. We miss them and wish they lived closer!
After that, we went to the wedding, which was gorgeous and fun, with several of my MBA classmates present. Good food and dancing. Sunday we slept in and then went to a car museum. Amazing cars. Explored …
