Work related projects have taken me off the hill for a little while. As much as I love to travel, I always love coming home to Big Bear Lake. Sometimes I forget to truly appreciate the friendly smiling faces, the beautiful alpine scenery and the surrounding playground for adventurers that brought me to this little slice of paradise in the first place.

It is a fabulous thing to meet new people and experience new places and there’s no better way to truly grow as a human being than to travel. Being away from home and its familiar ways helps us understand the similarities and differences of other people and other cultures even in the good old US of A. It can be challenging sometimes if you don’t learn to roll with the punches and don’t worry about not having things “your way.” Occasionally you find out that you like someone else’s way better anyway.

When I returned from this last trip, as soon as I crossed the dam I felt that warm comfortable feeling of home sweet home. I encourage you to get out there and travel as much as possible, and as soon as you’re done having fun, we’ll see you back “home” in Big Bear Lake.

spreading the love,
