When I read, I travel. Some days, I actually leave home. Those are the days I write about.

Welcome to Pin Drops & Paper Trails.

My adventures run the gamut from grand experiences in America’s National Parks to weekend-warrior discoveries in my own backyard. Along for the ride are the books that inspire me to travel to new places or delve deeper when I come home. These are my travels and the books that accompany me.

What I’m Reading

What Is the Story of Smokey Bear? a children's book by Steve Korte

Because sometimes you just need to feel like a kid again- and learn something while doing it. That’s why I’m reading What Is the Story of Smokey Bear? by Steve Korté.

When I was doing research for my New Mexico road trip, I came across an article about Smokey Bear Historical Park located in the town of Capitan. I immediately put it on our official itinerary, and I’m so glad I did!

Smokey Bear Historical Park was totally worth it. I’ll tell you all about it in my latest post Smokey Bear Historical Park- Honoring THE Bear.
