I would love to explore more in the Great Smokey Mountains! I want to visit Death Valley, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone and Glacier National Park. But To be able to visit Sequoia National park would be a dream come true!
What has been your favorite adventure experience?We spend alot of time riding and exploring WI But I really LOVE new places, and anywhere with a history! Some of my simplest trips have been my favorite. We went a few hours from home to Starved Rock & Matthiessen State Park in IL. It had so many gorgeous waterfalls, interesting history, and even a sun flower field. Second favorite would be visiting Providence Canyon in GA- has the most soft beautiful pink-purple sand! My favorite “hobby” is geode hunting or collecting my peacocks feathers.
What would you do with $10,000?Save it to travel with my family over summer and school breaks! Some day I would love to travel Route 66, spend time in the Old West or a trip to Alaska!
