I just returned home to Michigan from exploring the last frontier, Alaska! Next, I am driving to Oregon to explore more of this country!

I'd love to visit Katmai National Park along with Grand Teton, Yosemite, Isle Royale, Olympic, Banff and Zion!
What has been your favorite adventure experience?I've traveled by car from the East Coast of Maine to the top of Alaska and everywhere in between. I love being near the ocean or water and mountains! My favorite adventure was camping along the Kinnecott River in McCarthy in a remote town in the Wrangall National Park. I was surrounded by a huge glacier and mountains. I cooked dinner over an open fire next to the river. I hiked about 20 miles exploring the area. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Exploring parts of Alaska has been breathtaking.
What would you do with $10,000?I'd love to take my parents on an epic vacation. They have worked so hard in life and deserve a real vacation. With anything left, I'd put it towards a down payment for a home!
