There is no better way to connect with the earth than to FEEL IT, touch it, taste it and wear it! I've always made sure that whatever backyard we are living in, it's got a few good climbing trees, plenty of space to play, green grass and a little bit of MUD!

Catalina Adventure by boat
Moonlight Kayak Ride in Catalina
Deep Blue Waters.... Catalina Island, 25 miles off the coast of Redondo Beach, feels like an island in the Caribbeans. The color of the water and the depth of visibility is amazing. We hooked a flashlight to the front of the Kayak to act as a lantern and paddled out on a MOONLIGHT KAYAK RIDE. Bioluminescence :) provided a little extra light as it floated atop the water. At one point, both kids FELL ASLEEP, Canyon between my legs and Sierra in front. A few nudges and accidental splashes with the paddle kept Sierra awake for the remainder of the journey. It was an adventure for sure! The next day we snorkeled with Jean Michelle Cousteau, of Ocean Ventures, where he showed us the life below the waters. (I grew up with my brother playing Jacque Cousteau adventures daily, so this was more exciting for me than the kids.)
Sharing a song with Dreamingbear
Our Friend Dreamingbear ( on his world wide LOVELUTION TOUR) stopped by to share some beautiful musical inspiration. He brought his new toy, a Hang Drum, which sounded more beautiful than a steel drum, and played our digeridoo, as well as a few wooden flutes. The kids shared a few songs as well. What a beautiful evening to remember.
