Our calm in the chaos - staying positive and active!

🚨 The Stock Market is a Disaster! 📉 My 401k? Sinking into oblivion. My job as a Senior Supply Chain Analyst? It's being graciously phased out after 18 incredible years with an amazing company. So, what’s next??

🔹 Panic? Nah!
🔹 Despair? Been there, done that, one too many times! No thanks.
🔹 Adventure? 100% YES!

Rather than stressing over what I can’t control, I’m diving into what I love:
✅ – Finding hidden gems (literally) in the Arizona wilderness
✅ – Exploring miles of BLM land, state parks, and national forests
✅ – Capturing the beauty around me, one shot at a time
✅ – Because life’s too short to sit still!

Thank God for my amazing wife, our home in a state with endless scenic views, and this incredible social media community that celebrates the simple joys of and .

Life isn’t about what happens—it’s about how we choose to see it. I’ve been in that pit of fear before: there’s nothing good there. It just breeds more despair. I refuse to go back.

So yeah, the market’s a mess, the future seems uncertain.
Time management and responsibilities are demanding and require balancing. But we are choosing adventure, gratitude, and to spend time making more great memories as best we can!!🌎

Cheers & Happy Friday! 🍻 Who’s with us?! Drop a 🏜️ if you’re all about choosing adventure over fear!
