Adventures in Gratitude in Southern Africa

We are so excited to have a guest post from our friends at Generations of Adventure. They are a mother-daughter traveling duo, like us, just different generations than our family. We love following their adventures as they inspire our future

Lessons learned on a family safari through Kenya (In the 1980s)

By Lavelle Carlson When my children were seven and eleven we had the opportunity to take a camera safari for nine days through Kenya. My childhood in East Texas had afforded me little travel experience. My limited knowledge of the

I took up a new sport today and am hooked! I love I took up a new sport today and am hooked! I love being near the water but am not a big swimmer. Especially if the water is cold as it mostly is here in #Colorado . Somehow on my maiden voyage I managed to not go for a swim. I am looking forward to taking out this new toy often this summer to as many #ColoradoStateParks as have water. . . . It was fun. But it also felt good to try something that scared me a bit. It was fulfilling. . . . I highly recommend finding a good outdoor challenge to take on. It is a great way to shake the blues. Have you taken on anything new or scary to you lately? . . . #coloradolive #familyadventures #findyouradventure #vailcolorado #vailsummer #getoutstayout #paddleboarding #paddleboard #liveoutdoors #thegreatoutdoors #simplyadventure #suplife #earthofficial #adventureepic #mountainviews #mountainlove #getoutside #peoplewhodofunstuff
Let's talk travel! I know we haven't been able to Let's talk travel! I know we haven't been able to do much but dream. But I am thinking that in-state travel will start to open in the next few weeks. And, I am excited. Just another reason to be grateful for the place that we live. #Colorado is spectacular. I am looking forward to be able to explore closer to home this summer. . . . How are you feeling about travel? Thinking of making any plans? If so, what plans are you making? . . . This photo is from the #Snowmass Balloon Festival a couple of years ago. Sadly, most festivals can't happen. But hiking, biking and other outdoor recreational activities are in. If you won't be traveling, how will you be spending your summer? . . . #coloradotography #coloradocameraclub #coloradolive #coloradogram #coloradoinstagram #coloradolife #coloradolove #colorfulcolorado #coloradical #visitcolorado #viewcolorado #coloradophotography #coloradoliving #coloradountamed #rockymountains #aspens #igcolorado #ilovecolorado
Today is earth day. One child picked up trash. The Today is earth day. One child picked up trash. The other was enthralled by animals on the virtual tour at the San Diego Zoo. It was a good day for the earth. Not too many cars or people out to do harm. But I am not sure how good a day for all of our friends around the world. . . . The county where we live was one of the first hit and now looks to be one of the first to reopen responsibly. I am not sure when we’ll be able to welcome back all of our friends who make the economy thrive. But I am certainly looking forward to the dog park being opened back up, the kids being able to play with their friends and more adult social interactions for me. . . . I am also looking forward to being able to get back to exploring the state I call home. This is @pineyriverranch in the fall. There are so many hidden gems like this in #Colorado . Looking forward to visiting more #beautifulplaces here very soon. . . . Sending you and yours lots of wishes for health and sanity during these crazy times. Get outside if you can. It heals the soul. . . . #letsco #waitingtoco #glamping #glampinglife #visitcolorado #takethekidseverywhere #familytravel #familytravels #optoutside #instacolorado #natureseekers #earthday2020 #earthday🌎
How has your week been? I know we have so much to How has your week been? I know we have so much to be grateful for these days. But every once in a while I have a day when I have a hard time seeing that. I hate not being able to make things better. Not just for my family but for everyone who is suffering setbacks or losses right now. All I can do is look back at memories like these and try to think about how beautiful the world is. . . . How do you get through those days when the state of our world just really brings you down? . . . Sending out lots of love to everyone! . . . #costarica #puravida #familytravel #travelwithkids #familyjaunts #explorerkids #familytrip #kidstravel #travelkids #insta_international #insta_international #insta_international #guanacaste #takeyourkidseverywhere #centralamerica #tamarindo #thisiscostarica #beachtime #friendsforlife #beautifulsunsets #friendsoftheworld #costaricacool
I’ve been pretty quiet over here. My little slic I’ve been pretty quiet over here. My little slice of paradise in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado has been hit hard with this nasty virus. It has upended my world as it as it has done most everywhere. . . . Many of my very favorite places have been hit hardest. . . . There may end up being a few silver linings. The tiny little one I can see now is the gratitude that I am feeling for our friends in Italy. They took not the first hit, but the first one that the rest of the developed democratic world would take seriously. We get to learn from them. Maybe only by a few days. But maybe, just maybe it can save some lives, and our healthcare system. . . . I am certainly thinking of them now and hoping that once our world recovers that I can plan our next family trip there. To show our kids where we honeymooned. But also to support those mom and pop businesses that showed us love many years ago. . . . #travelwithkids #italy #amalficoast #italian_places #positano #toscana #volgoitalia #ig_amalficoast #sorrento #whatitalyis #italy_vacations #ig_italy #insta_international #amalfi #foto_italiane #costieraamalfitana #treasures_and_nature #familytravel #besafe #colore_italiano
Our last weekend of ski racing was Sunday. Whew, w Our last weekend of ski racing was Sunday. Whew, what a ski season. Well not that ski season is over. But volunteer coaching for hubby and league ski days for kids are. We all grew as skiers, coaches and parents. It was a beautiful final day. I am ready for a couple of fun family ski days and then some warmer weather. . . . This is typically when I start making our plans. That will still happen. But we might be doing more road tripping this year. We already had an RV trip planned and may add more of that to the year’s travel plans. Have your plans changed due to the Corona virus? We have a new puppy so had already planned to spend more time in our home state than flying. But we are waiting and seeing for a couple of trips. . . . #beavercreek #skiseason #colorado #roadtrips #travelwithkids #kidstravel #explorerkids #familyjaunts #familytravel #familytrip #coloradolife #colorfulcolorado #coloradolive #travelkids #coloradoliving #rockymountains #coloradolove #coloradical #coloradogram #igcolorado #visitcolorado
