As 2017 wraps up, I decided to do a recap of the year. But rather than doing a written reflection, here are 17 photos from some of my highlights from this year, in no particular order:
(Short descriptions will be included for context.)
Meow Wolf, Santa Fe, NM
Multnomah Falls, OR
Kerry Park, Seattle, WA
The Flower Fields, Carlsbad, CA
Narada Falls, Mount Rainier National Park, WA
The Grotto, Portland, OR
Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn, NY
Hike to Cave of Munits, Los Angeles, CA. Given how brown L.A. typically is, this was a refreshing environment to be in earlier this year that felt like a different part of the country
Crystal Cove State Park, CA
Elfreth's Alley, Philadelphia, PA
Huntington City Beach, Huntington Beach, CA
Los Angeles, CA
Sequioa National Forest, CA
Rusty Bear napping after exploring Sequioa National Forest. He's an adventurous dog with lots of personality! You can follow him on Instagram at @rustybearcorgi
Shoshone Falls (aka the "Niagara Falls of the West"), Twin Falls, ID
Walker Canyon, Lake Elsinore, CA. California experienced a beautiful super bloom this year after several years of drought. This was a popular place to enjoy the flowers.
My view pretty much every day :)
I’ve written about a couple of these places on my travel blog, Backyard Destinations. Feel free to check it out if you’re interested!
What were some of your 2017 highlights? I’d be especially interested to see any photo post recaps. If you’ve got one, leave a link in the comments! :)
