One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been canyoneering in Utah many times. It's like that movie "127 hours" except nobody gets their hand cut off. The best part is seeing the stars at night in the middle of the desert!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you to rock climb or if you have a guitar, I could play you a song. I also love to just sit and learn about someone and maybe share a few stories of my own of growing up on the farm or exploring the mountains of Colorado. Maybe you can teach me to cook. I'm working on it but I got a long way to go still.
