I’m currently writing this post from Minneapolis, Minnesota, after enjoying a much-needed shower following a weekend of camping. I flew out to the Twin Cities on Thursday to visit my brother and sister-in-law for a long weekend, and we just got back from a campsite in Mille Lacs county, about an hour and a half outside the city. I love camping, but it seems most of my friends and relatives in close distance do not… so I’m super glad my brother and his wifey are into it and that they were willing to take me!

It’s been forever since I’ve had any travel-related blog posts to share (for obvious reasons), so I’m extra excited to talk about my visit to Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve this past weekend. The great sand dunes are located 232 miles slightly southwest of Denver, Colorado (almost a four-hour drive), and they are the biggest sand dunes in North America. I’ve been wanting to visit them ever since I first heard of the dunes back during my freshman year of college! Continue reading “Exploring Great Sand Dunes National Park”
