9 Things I Missed When I Moved Away From Arizona

Why Having a Puppy is Worth It.
Appreciation post for my puppy and everyone lucky enough to have a puppy in their life ❤ Raising a dog is a lot of work. They demand your attention 95% of the time, and the remaining 5% is only when they’re sleeping.

The American Bullfrog: The Frog that Eats Its Own
I wrote a story about a frog… and it is honestly one of my favorite stories out of everything that I have ever written! It’s about the American Bullfrog and, without giving away too much detail, the scientists that I encountered while writing this piece were just as peculiar as the frogs themselves. Imagine brief, hot summer rains in the American southwest. The hum of … Continue reading The American Bullfrog: The Frog that Eats Its Own

Buying tickets at the gate cost $70, but if you buy tickets online during summer you can get tickets for about $42. They also have … Continue reading Thrills at Six Flags America
