So a couple of weeks ago my wife and I were on a bus from Hot Springs to Hot Springs Village on our way to the company golf tournament. In the middle of what felt like nowhere, we both spotted a really neat campground that appeared to have a creek near it. Fast forward a couple …

Fishless Adventures
I firmly believe that when you are “stuck on the bank” there are just so many spots that look like they would be amazing if you just had a boat and could get over there. There are so many places that I want to visit with the Adventure Galley because I remember thinking about how …
The Adventure Galley
I know, I know, I’m really stretching it with the whole post a week commitment. The struggle with writing content is that I’d rather be out there adventuring! So taking the time to sit down and write about something just isn’t a ton of fun. I would much rather be… You get the idea. I …
First Kayak Acquired
I’ve talked about kayaking here in the past and I’ve had my eyes on a fishing kayak for a long time. My oldest son has also expressed interest in kayaking, but not so much in fishing from a kayak. He’s not opposed to the idea, but he prefers to fish from the bank for now. …
Searching for a Kayak
I have to think that most anglers who stand at the threshold of leaving the bank forever behind feel a sense of awe and wonder at their first watercraft. Whether it’s a new or used flat bottom Jon boat, a v-hull, full on bass boat rig, or just a kayak or canoe, the realization that you won’t …
What’s Cooler Than Cool?

The 2018 Project
2017 was a really good year overall. There were a lot of ups and downs along the way, but overall it was a really good year. Personally, I feel like there were a lot of things that I should have accomplished, but they just got pushed to the back burner. This happens all the time and …

It’s cold outside…
Winter is setting in here in Arkansas. Granted, hitting 32 degrees is nothing compared to folks further up north, but it’s a chill for me. I’ve been thinking a lot about layering and trying to plan a good hike just to get outside again. I’ve put the first trail review out, you can read the BSA …
