Introduction

My family and I spend a great deal of time either in the outdoors or in researching our next adventure. Not a weekend goes by without hitting the trails or local waters. Even our family vacations revolve around National and State Parks.

We have, and will, spend a great deal of time and money on gear, travel, and research to find the best areas and items needed for the full enjoyment of nature. The Southeast has great potential for family outings in the activities of hiking, backpacking, camping, biking, and kayaking. The U.S. as well offers some of the most outstanding National and State Parks in the world. Therefore, I have started this blog to share our knowledge.

To enjoy these areas certain items and planning are necessary. It took us years to gather this information and I would like to share it with you. Future postings will touch on the topics of park reviews, trail information, gear reviews, and websites needed to gather information.

I look forward to the days to come and please feel free to comment or add input to future postings.
