Plan your trips with a 2025 Scenic Calendar!

Happy Holidays! One of my favorite traditions is making my scenic calendar. Since 2018, I've compiled my adventures into an annual calendar highlighting stunning locations across the country and beyond. This year is no different - and I actually think it's one of the best calendars I've produced. If you're looking to give a great gift or need a calendar to help plan your trips and get inspired, I would be honored if you chose mine. If you plan to give it as a gift, Wednesday, December 18th is the hard cut-off, as I'm unsure how quickly mail will arrive after that. Please note this on the Google form, as I'll be prioritizing those.

Happy holidays to each and every one of you! I'll keep this very short, as this is a longer newsletter. We're sticking around Denver for Christmas. When we moved here, I somewhat figured it would be a white Christmas... or at least some white stuff on the ground. But nope! It's highs in the mid-50s to 60s, and we're getting our tan on! Lastly, I want to say thanks for reading and supporting this newsletter. All I want is to help you guys get outside and enjoy time in nature. I hope I've...
Happy feast week, everyone! Jaimie and I are traveling to the Bay Area to see her family, and it'll be nice to warm up some as Denver's temps are DROPPING! I'm not sure how November flew by so fast, but here we are. I hope you and your families have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Thank you for being here and supporting this newsletter. I truly appreciate it. And if there is anything you want me to cover, just ask! First things first. I think you all enjoy traveling and probably saving...
