It’s 2020! Time for all new adventures outdoors and otherwise. Started the year out right with a quick hike along the Riverbend trail at Milo McIver state park. Oregon State Parks are free on 1 Jan. so if you missed it this year, mark it down for 2021.
The new year also means new goals. I’ve decided to start a Patreon at The Wonder Wander. Tiers start at $1, so if you’ve enjoyed my Youtube and other content in the past please consider joining. I’ll be posting weekly videos on creativity/art, travel, vegan cooking, science, and whatever other topics TBD that strike my fancy. It will truly be a wonder wander.
2019 was a great year, and I’m maintaining the adventurous spirit/momentum into 2020!
I’ve been tracking my book reading for over a decade now, so this year I’ve decided to start a monthly media tracker. Here’s what I’ve been consuming media-wise in January (books are still at the what I’ve been reading list linked above). Enjoy.
