If today’s inspiration board doesn’t make you itch for a dose of the great outdoors, I don’t know what will. A friend of mine spontaneously headed out to Rocky Mountain National Park last week, and looking at his photos got me reminiscing about the countless summer hikes and camping trips I took growing up, and even more so about how badly I’m in need of one now. Even though our month of travel is focusing on jet setting to far-off destinations, there’s no doubt that the best getaways are often found just outside of town. So in the spirit of everything rough and rugged, here’s hoping today’s board will urge you to take a deep breath, unplug and hit the trail before summer’s end.
