Disarming El Cabron
Friends told me when you adventure to Baja, you want to drive a crappy old car and let your hair grow out. Also, avoid shaving and grow a beard and downplay anything of value. The landscape doesn’t appear as I imagine. I envision a greener landscape with point breaks around every corner. This is desolate desert, dusty and endless. It seems to go on and on to the horizon. Not too different from the landscape in Mad Max with Mel Gibson.

Whitby Abbey
Whisps of thick fog curled around my boots as I approached the base of the hill. The early morning sun did little to help with the visibility around my current surroundings. Veritably, I was left with my own sense of orientation and the landmark erected above serving as my compass.

Weasel Reef
Taylor and Johnny-Boy gaze out at the glass and sip on hot coffee as beautiful barrels roll across the reef. The two surfers in the line-up surge up, down, and over the swells that draw waves from the deep Pacific to the triangular reef naturally formed under their boards. They wax up their boards in anticipation of capturing a few of mother ocean's jade gems of joy, delivering to the coast's sneakiest of all reefs, where finicky shelves of shacks are meant to house the chosen few that can ride this place. This is where unicorns are caught, treasure is discovered, and waves are ridden.

The Magic of Cap May
I gazed out of the car window as we drove along the winding roads leading to Cape May, New Jersey. The early morning sun cast a golden hue over the quaint houses and lush greenery that lined the streets. It’s a lovely drive from my home to Cap May. My husband and I relive memories of our youth as we drive along. The roads are filled with reminders of why New Jersey is called the garden state. There are farms and forests all along the way. It’s a peaceful and joyful drive.

The Midnight Madness. Content Warning.
Amidst the quiet hum of the small town of Willow Creek, nestled beneath a canopy of ancient trees, there stood a carnival—an ephemeral spectacle that materialized only under the veil of night. Within its labyrinthine confines, where the scent of cotton candy mingled with the faint whispers of the wind, there lay a sinister secret—a ghost train that traversed the darkness, its passengers destined for a journey beyond the realms of the living.
