The awesome thing about travel is that you get to fill your life with a series of firsts on your life list. First scuba dive. First insect eaten. First bout with altitude sickness. First condor.

One thing I had not… Continue reading Road Trip to Phoenix, Arizona – Heading to Burning Man
You Don’t Know What You Have Until It’s Gone – Grand Canyon
Note: The following is Shaun's first blog post on Over Yonderlust. He has mainly been working on the Previous Travels pages and I'm glad he was able to contribute to the blog part of our website. 🙂 One of the hardest life lessons I've learned over the years is the old saying 'you don't know… Continue reading You Don’t Know What You Have Until It’s Gone – Grand Canyon
