FINDING OUR FLOW (“TEA TIME”)
Finding your FLOW is not easy-peasy, nor has it ever been. The easiest way to describe remarkable FLOW is to observe (& experience) extreme snow-skiing rhythms…. it is what occurs “between your turns”, while enjoying the challenges and thrill of gravity. But FLOW can be discovered (observed) in most every activity too, if you let…
Don’t Worry…. Be Healthy!
If you can afford the time (& have the foresight to invest in yourself), then carve out a few hours for a local outdoor activity that might reconnect you with your Community, some local History, portions of the Triad landscape, and yourself. Even better if done with friends, coworkers, family, neighbors, or fellow church members….
Paddleboard Safety
What is “SAFETY 1st” when it comes to PaddleBoarding? Like most things, safety begins with your awareness, knowledge, and skills: ~ do you know how to swim (well)? ~ who is to be paddling with you? ~ is the weather warm enough? ~ are you to paddle on a pond, a lake, or a river?…
Attending Tour Operator Conferences
Who knew there was a National trade conference “for” Tour/Activity Operators? We have now attended at least 3 of these conventions in an effort to learn more from others in our trades (Electric Bikes, PaddleBoarding, Trolleys, Segways), and indeed we have learned! Behind the scenes, our small tourism business is supported by valuable transaction and…

“Segway” aka “Segue”
Who knew, a noun or a verb? And which came first (hint: invented in the USA approximately 13 years ago). Either way, it spells F-U-N, in a unique kinda way…. as either a noun or a verb. I was first introduced to “Segway” in Dallas @ SMU, while first pursuing a Journalism degree. I say…
Lane 3
Oh my, YES, lane #3…. with lane #4 right there right next to it. If you are a swimmer or a fan of swimming, everyone knows that “lane 3” is supposed to win. Which is why I have always been a fan of lanes #6 and #1, for several reasons. First of all, nothing is…
F
FLAT spots, our world has plenty of them, doesn’t yours? Even in roller-coaster rides, both on top and near the bottom, where they appear (thank goodness)! Sometimes they are supposed to be there, and sometimes they are NOT. It reminded me while I was playing tennis early this morning, that most of all they are…
E
BLOG #5 (but who is counting?) “E” At first thought, “E” stands for EXCELLENCE. And also for Entrepreneurship. But entrepreneurship alone does not assure excellence, not hardly. At least the cat did have the courage to start a business, we can suppose. But what kinda condition might his/her condition be in? If you are familiar…
Glide-ON (or not)
Life-choices are incredible & overwhelming, we enjoy them every day. Or not. Each moment of choice represents an opportunity to look into a mirror @ yourself and @ your family, and @ your choices. Writing a blog is not my natural choice, due primarily to being a man-cave kinda introvert. Except that my man-cave is often getting outdoors,…
What Is The Right Stand Up Paddleboard For You?
Selecting your first standup paddleboard (SUP) is all about YOU. The same way buying your first bike may be. What is your height? What is your weight? What is your skill (have you had lessons)? Where will you be paddling? How many months or years do you wish to use the SUP? Surprisingly, some folks…
