Hi!  I’m Sarah, and these are my ramblings.  I’m a chemical engineer by day (I work at a plant that makes Polyphenylene sulfide) and an avid photographer, runner, reader, hiker, camper, backpacker, traveler, gardener, bird-watcher, and seashell-collector by night. I’m a lover of Christ 24/7/365.25 and a proud member of the fightin’ Texas Aggie class of 2007 (though I graduated in 2008).

My husband, Bryan, is the best travel and life partner a girl could ask for.  We live in the middle of nowhere with our three pets (our Vizsla, Tibby, our cat, Eli, and our bird Balki).  We travel to keep ourselves sane and because we love learning and exploring.  We enjoy taking advantage of our geographical location by going on weekend camping, backpacking, and hiking trips in both New Mexico and Oklahoma.  We also have a long list of places outside of the U.S. that we’d like to see, and we try to take at least one trip outside of the U.S. each year.  I have a life-time goal to visit every single national park in the United States.  When I’m old and retired, I’d like to through-hike the Appalachian Trail.

For those who are interested, I maintain a Flickr page and an Instagram account.
