When Keely and I were married, we spent our honeymoon hiking in Alaska around Mt Denali. We loved seeing the glacial streams, the moose and rain deer and the majesty of snowcapped mountains. Since then, we have backpacked nearly 1,000 miles on the Appalachian Trail, Grand Canyon, Kitchen Mesa and the Sheltowee Trace. We cook and camp outdoors under the stars, going to sleep to the sounds of owls, tree frogs and the breeze in the trees. We’d love to share these experiences with a child, teaching him or her about the beauty of nature around us.
