A few weeks back, I wrote my first of three blogs on beauty. Not beauty in the traditional sense of the word, but in how we live our lives.

Last week, I had the opportunity to do a snowmobile/snowboard tour with Maki Snowmobile Tours and it was one of the most spectacular things I have done in my life. Six riders, five snowmobiles, four snowboard rides, three powder boards, two Go-Pros, one great day. An excellent, raw and authentic day with so many great... Continue Reading →
