Book Reviews for @readwithkj & Personal Blog
When I began drafting this post, I thought I'd write about how we're getting back to normalcy but after a bit of contemplation, I've come to the realization that there really isn't going to be a time when we get back to the normal we've all been used to for the majority of our lives....

Even though it is technically still fall, here in Colorado we are already in full-blown winter. It's already snowed twice and it's sticking to the ground so it's staying for the next six months. I've been a bit absent from here lately, but it's because I've been busy. So here's a wrap-up of all that... Continue Reading →
I know I've been absent for quite some time with a post (book reviews excluded). I promise I'm working on a few new posts and I hope to get some up here soon. With that being said; if you have any ideas for posts or want to know anything in particular, let me know in... Continue Reading →
When I started this blog to share posts about my summer hikes back in 2017 I never thought I'd become an actual blogger. After I finished school I decided to really focus on my writing and expanding my blog presence. And I've loved every post I've written so far. Blogging has given me an escape... Continue Reading →
The age of cable television is dying and streaming services are taking over. I, like many others, don't watch cable television. I subscribe to popular streaming services instead: Netflix, Hulu, HBO and Amazon Prime. A lot of people joke that they don't pay for their Netflix and that they just mooch off of someone else's...

A week ago I returned from a short trip back to Oregon to see my college best friend who lives in Portland and to see another best friend graduate. It was the perfect length of time and I got to explore the Portland area and return to my alma mater. It has been a year... Continue Reading →
Summer is finally here and I want to do so many things. And I'm sure many of you have a long list as well. There's still a bit of snow on the peaks in the Rocky Mountains here in Colorado but it's beginning to get warmer and there's plenty of activities to be done this... Continue Reading →
Since I've been at my (not-so-new) new job now for six months I thought I'd share how I've made my desk my own. I never thought that I'd be the type of person to sit at a desk all day for work, but I am. I will hopefully have an opportunity in the future to... Continue Reading →
It has been almost two weeks since I returned from Junior River Trip and as I promised in my post before I left, I'll share a bit about my recent trip down the Green River in Utah. In short, it was a wonderful trip that I will certainly remember for years to come. As I... Continue Reading →
**This post contains spoilers from the final season of Game of Thrones.** With the series finale of the HBO show Game of Thrones, I thought I'd share why I decided to jump on the ever-so-popular bandwagon. I've always been a fan of fantasy, especially when you add in an original storyline and interesting characters that you... Continue Reading →
A year ago I wrote about the Art of Giving and gave insight into the University of Oregon's annual Giving Day #DucksGive. This year, instead of sitting behind a computer and calling for donations, I was on the other end receiving the call. Giving back to the university that I spent tens of thousands of dollars...

Five years ago I was fortunate enough to spend six days on the Green River in Utah with fellow juniors as a school trip. That trip made my high school experience. The trip, which has been around since the 70s brings a whole different kind of high school adventure to Middle Park High School juniors.... Continue Reading →
