Total Solar Eclipse

Originally based in the Midwest, Gary & Krista moved to
Montana to explore the outdoors and experience new adventures.

Welcome to our travel journal…

…where we share our genuine experiences. Some are amazing, some are challenging, but all are real. We don’t stage photos for perfection, nor do we expect every trip to be flawless. Our goal isn’t to impress but to enjoy the journey and better understand the world in which we live.

What a wonderful eclipse. I’ve never experienced one before. It was awesome. The kind of experience that leaves you completely in awe. The weather shifted, there was a 360 degree sunset. Truly extraordinary. You have to experience it!

A couple more shots from our trip to Kearney to see the migration. The long lens makes a huge difference!

Thinking of the impending snow storm….Have you ever been to a place in two different seasons and it felt like a completely different place? I think that’s why I like the change of seasons so much. Enjoy the change of scenery and stay safe out there!

Recently took a trip to Maine and we were fortunate to be on the last trip of the @schoonervictorychimes. It was a wonderful experience. The Chimes was wonderful. The crew along with Captain Sam were the best. Thank you to you all for such a wonderful experience. Even though we won’t be able to sail on the Chimes again, we hope to see you all again on the high seas.

Day 1 in Iceland
Deildartunguhver. Highest flow hot spring in Europe. Part of the water is piped to heat Borgarnes and Akranes. Krauma pool is also right here, but we didn’t stop for a dip. Nature is so interesting!

Day 1 in Iceland
After getting our negative results and taking a (short) nap, we decided to venture out. If you’re familiar with Iceland you know you need to be prepared at all times for weather and hiking conditions, so we gathered our rain gear, water and a snack. We got part of the way to the waterfall and turned back. We were both way too exhausted from the flight/time change to finish. Better safe than sorry. The views were still worth the hike we did do. The lupine was beautiful. Hope to get back to actually see Glymur someday. #iceland2021 #hikingiceland #glymur #bettersafethansorry #icelandicpledge

Day 1 in Iceland
This was our view on our way to our quarantine hotel. There’s a lot going on in this pic: The A (Sailing Yacht), smoke from the Eruption in Reykjanes, and Hallgrímskirkja (tallest church in Iceland and one of the tallest buildings). Totally unexpected that we got to see all of this through our car window. Great start to the trip (after we had our brains poked by a Q-tip). #reykjavík #reykjavik #hallgrimskirkja #hallgrímskirkja #reykjanesvolcano #icelandvolcano #iceland #iceland2021 #asailingyacht

2020 Didn’t allow much travel, but we did get one trip to Lake Superior. The Apostle Islands were spectacular. Hoping to one day take sailing lessons on Lake Superior. Traveling to new places always makes me want to go back and experience more.

Not sure if anyone else does this, but when I find something cool I’d like to see, I pin it on my Google Map. That way, when we travel, I already have a list of things we can visit. Does anyone else do this? Green are places I’d like to see and blue are places we’ve been. #travelplanning #forwardforadventure #waitingforthenextadventure #placesidliketosee #itsmoreofabucketlist #wheretonext
