Outdoor Adventure

Lis Hartel became paralyzed after contracting polio in 1944. Her dreams of riding horses and competing in the sport of dressage were shattered. After months in the hospital, doctors told her she'd never ride again. Lis tried anyway. But how do you stay on a horse without using your legs? How do you give the subtle cues needed in dressage with limited mobility? With hard work—and an unlikely horse named Jubilee!

If you already have an interest and perhaps regularly take part in events such as half and full marathons or more challenging events, such as the steeplechase, triathlon, or decathlon, think of obstacle course racing as taking things to a whole new level. Obstacle course races have replaced mere triathlons and the like as the contemporary measure of physical fitness, with a very dominating element of sheer human willpower, teamwork, planning, fun, mental toughness, and a whole lot more.

Even the most casual walker can step out the door of a luxury hotel onto a palm-lined beach to search for conch shells and hermit crabs, pass through the center of a busy and historically-rich port town, then enter a cactus and boulder-strewn landscape. From there, you can walk among stalks of sugarcane, or up the slopes of a lush volcanic mountain to discover crashing waterfalls and thousands of tropical flowers. All of these delights can be experienced in less than an hour's walk from major towns and tourist spots.

In the still and cool hours before sunrise I have learned a few things about myself and God. It is my hope to share them with you, as I share the experiences which take place in my orange 15' kayak. Take what you like and forget the rest.

In the fall of 2015 I saw an advertisement on the Port of Olympia web site. It was looking for volunteers to serve on the Olympia Harbor Patrol. In exchange for a year commitment, people would be trained in boat handling, search and rescue, and port security. Being a long time recreational boater and sailor, I was interested in giving back to the community which had given me so much over the years. I applied online and waited. Several weeks later, I was invited to an interview

Y, de repente, una noticia que anticipaba un cambio en los modos y costumbres. Aunque todavía quedasen por delante unos cuantos partidos, había un cierto aire de nostalgia y de despedida. Tocaba mudarse. Siempre cuesta abandonar la casa habitual y hacerse al entorno de un nuevo hábitat. ¿A dónde? Cerca del río Manzanares. Allá en la zona sur de la ciudad, donde acababa Madrid, o casi. Entonces, todo eran huertas. Luego, a su vera, trazaron una carretera que se hizo muy popular.

Marcos Abal recoge en el prólogo cuáles son los objetivos de su libro: “Este libro es más bien una reconstrucción. Primero, del niño que creció viendo fútbol y siendo del Barça. Y segundo; de esos jugadores, de algunos, que han pasado por el club y se han quedado grabados para siempre en la memoria colectiva de unos aficionados. Una mitología, por lo tanto, creada a partir de una infancia y de unos dioses particulares, aunque conocidos por todos.

Para Ignacio Martínez de Pisón (Zaragoza, 1960), el Zaragoza son recuerdos de Las Gaunas de Logroño y de goles de Felipe Ocampos en La Romareda. Es el desesperado braceo de Seaman en la final de la Recopa contra el Arsenal el 10 de mayo de 1995, las propiedades terapéuticas del gol de Nayim y recitar de carrerilla, con entonación de poesía escolar, viejas alineaciones del Zaragoza de su infancia.

"Prescindí de la televisión. Hay una peña bética en Málaga. Tienen un queso sabrosísimo: Ciudad de Sansueña es la marca. Hay que cortarlo fino y saborearlo bien: el sobrepeso es un claro síntoma de un abandono que hay que saber atajar a tiempo. Ignoro si en la peña siguen fumando Ducados como enfermos mentales o lo dejaron ya. El regusto de la mezcla del queso y el tabaco negro era tan horrible como la decadencia del Betis tras aquello del Chelsea y la final de la Copa de 2005: una decadencia paralela a la mía."

In 1995, three intrepid adventure seekers travel by small sailboat and kayaks risking death in rough seas to find the Painted Cave of Santa Cruz Island.

The fog is just beginning to disperse after sunrise but this is not a problem for navigation because you are just going to follow the western shore. You are the first person in when the gate opens at the West Bay Park and your hand launched vessel slides effortlessly into the water. You are off. You pass a tiny Island 50 yards from the launch. Islands no matter how small always excite my mind. The island is perhaps 20' wide and has one small stick like tree growing on it.

A book remembering a moment in time. A moment I knew, holy crap, this is serious and everyone is looking at me. It was then I realized I am the captain! Having survived my first long solo sail a year ago, I figured it was time to take it up a notch! Sailing has been a passion project of mine. From a young age, I have been set to many different activities by my overactive enthusiasm, from blazing trails on bikes through thicket and bog alike, that run along the local river. To pulling fish too small to fry from that very same river.
