Travel Adventure

First Post:

For those of you that don't already know, I resigned from my job as Associate Counsel at Cook Inlet Region, Inc., am packing my car and heading South...full of plans and expectations! I have several goals in mind, including visiting family and friends, adventuring, learning Spanish and volunteering on a conservation and/or teaching project. I don't have a lot of solid plans yet, but here is a sample of what I do have planned -- mountain biking Utah, running the Grand Canyon rim-to-rim (No Tab, I haven't committed to R2R2R yet!), Thanksgiving in the Bahamas, a jungle race in Costa Rica, surf school in Nicaragua and volunteer work in the Galapagos and possibly other areas of South and/or Central America.

I was inspired to take this leap by several persons. I think I first imagined this idea was possible after talking with Larry and Sandra on a ski trail somewhere. Donna pushed me when I faltered. Karl has supported me unwaveringly. Meaghan made sure I was prepared. And Mom and Dad have always believed in me.

I'll post my itinerary as I go on this blog and you can check if you are interested. I am going to figure out how to post pictures even without my Mac, etc. I'm a bit of a Luddite so I have some catching up to do on the tech front!

Signing off,
Kelly
