  • Probably the greatest life experience

    I’m in Whistler right now and I went heliboarding for the first time yesterday. It had been on my bucket list for maybe 10 years and so it feels fantastic to check it off. 

    Here’s what I can tell you: WOW. It did not disappoint. 

    It was easily one of the greatest life experiences I have ever had. We also got lucky with a crystal clear bluebird day.

    I don’t do many photoblog posts here on this blog, but I’m going to do one today, because I think the occasion demands it. But of course, even these photos don’t do the experience any justice.

    I also posted a video of the above to my Instagram.

    Regular scheduled programming will resume tomorrow.
