There is a lot of stuff going on right now but I have some fun posts planned . While I work on new places to visit and things to see and gear reviews, enjoy the Bear running in the snow during the Texas Snow Storm of 2022. No, it was not as epic as the
One of my favorite things to do is explore things that are close to home. We all have interesting things around the corner that get overlooked because they seem too tame. I’ve known about the Log Cabin Village in Fort Worth for a while, it’s across the street from the Fort Worth Zoo and near

For this trip we stayed with Getaway Cabin. This is actually our second Getaway stay. The first was in 2020 and we visited their Texas Hill Country Outpost. We arrived at out cabin after a few hours of driving and a stop in at Wildflyer Mead Co. It was a perfect early April evening, a
