Green grass, right here.

Especially since the pandemic, I make a point of discovering new places and things to do in my home town, Birmingham, AL. Finding joy in your own backyard is not a new concept, but actually acting on this concept can feel as knew as going to a foreign country, depending on how creative you get.

I’m still discovering cool news things, and I keep hearing about others. A fresh viewpoint is one of the most important factors for breaking out of old patterns of mind and body. Every time I try a new restaurant, a new trail, a new neighborhood walk, my perceived limitations diminish.

I wrote a snippet for Redfin, a national website, about one of my favorite things about Birmingham. If you want creative ideas for local exploring, check it out, OR get out of your backyard and come see mine!
