It’s official. I am now married. Our wedding late last month was an incredible blur of love and fun and happy times. It was far better than I imagined. Now we are back from our honeymoon, perhaps the one trip I have taken without a notebook constantly in hand. Now I see why there’s so much fuss about Hawaii. We hiked the Na Pali Coast (stunning), kayaking it the next day (even more stunning), paddleboarded Hanalei Bay and several rivers, and soaked up the sun and infectiously mellow vibe. Now it’s back to the desk.
In other news, I have a story out in an unusual magazine. Last fall I got a call from an editor at Scouting, the publication for parents and leaders of boy scouts. He asked me to follow a venturing crew, an older coed group of scouts, on a kayaking trip off Catalina Island. Catalina was far more beautiful than I expected, and the kids were so fun and smart and impressive. The story turned out to be fun to write as well. Read it here.
