What it’s like to try the Luge when you are not an Olympic Athlete

January 1, 2020 By Nedra McDaniel 9 Comments

What it's like to try the Luge when you are not an Olympic Athlete

I love when plans work out for a spontaneous adventure. My friend was already coming to town, so I just offered her the “choose your own adventure” option for her visit. 

Try the luge, cross-country skiing or attend an ice sculpture festival.  I was sooo excited that she wanted to try the luge too.

A Kayak Adventure to see the Ghost Ship

A Kayak Adventure to See the Ghost Ship 2

I am happy to say that I finally crossed a kayak adventure to see the “Ghost Ship” off my list.

I’ve been wanting to see it for a while and even put it on my Summer Bucket list. Summer flew by and I think I technically squeezed it in… but just barely.

Adventures That I Want to Experience This Year

January 1, 2019 By Nedra McDaniel 2 Comments

“If you want to do something bad enough, you will find a way, if not, you’ll find an excuse.” – Jim Rohn

This is my all-time favorite quote because it kicks my butt and challenges me to question my priorities and determine if they are really mine, someone else’s, or what I think I should want to do.

We can all say we don’t have time but if someone offered me an opportunity to experience a dream adventure, I would somehow find the time and make a way….and if it is really something that I want to do, what’s getting in the way and how can I change that?

I like to make a running tab of adventures that I want to cross off. I’ve been fortunate to cross many off the list this past year so that means that I keep looking for new ones to add to the list.

Adventure looks different for everyone and that’s ok

I’ll start off with a bit of a confession, I’m a bit of a wimp. That might sound weird from someone who has ziplined, played underwater hockey, tried the luge, let wolves play with their hair, went zorbing down a hill…..and the list of random adventures goes on and on….. but I definitely wasn’t always that way. In fact, I was pretty scared of everything and definitely not known for being adventurous. …
