A Weekend in Southern Indiana

5 months agoBisa Myles5 comments

I went on a weekend getaway to Southern Indiana. It was a four-hour drive from Northwest Indiana. I attended the Thunder over Louisville Kentucky watch party at Buckhead Mountain Grill in Jeffersonville, Indiana. This event was to kickoff the three-weeks of festivals leading up to the Kentucky Derby on May 4, 2019. I was invited by the SoIN tourism bureau of Southern...

My Visit to the Ice Castles in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin

9 months agoBisa Myles7 comments

During a recent Twitter chat, someone posted a picture of their family at the Ice Castles. I did a google search and saw that there was an Ice Castles two hours away in Lake Geneva Wisconsin. The Founder, Brent Christensen started building ice caves in his front yard in Utah to keep his six kids entertained. Everyone in the neighborhood loved them and the idea grew...

Here's a fun picture I took on Day 3 on Kilimanjaro with my 360 camera. I have a lot of pictures and video that I have not edited. I don't have a reason why. I guess I didn't have the time.
@miaadventura and I got up early to watch the sunrise over Memphis. I revisited The Big River crossing. I was screaming and afraid to walk across it one year ago. It wasn't as scary as I remember. See the link in my profile.

@sheswanderful posted a challenge to share a picture in your swimsuit. This picture is buried in my feed somewhere. I didn't make it the first picture on purpose. I did put it in my stories that day, but I knew it would disappear. I had never worn a bikini before or shared any pictures of myself on social media where I wasn't covered. Honestly, most of my friends had never seen me in a swimsuit. If I went to a beach I had on shorts. I brought it with me because I knew I was going to be around supportive plus-size women. This was taken after I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with the @curvykilicrew. I reached 15,485 feet elevation in this body it could definately wear a bikini. Tanzania is one of my favorite countries because it is beautiful, and it is where I faced a lot of my fears. I left feeling stronger than before and not afraid to wear a swimsuit.
Throwback Thursday, I went skydiving. What I remember the most is how quiet it was. I would do it again and I did. Not sure where the pictures are.
I have a confession to make. I have gone rock climbing before. It was about 20 years ago, and I had only done it once. I've always had an adventurous side. I hadn't had any training and didn't know what I was doing. It was part of a weekend of adventures with the boot camp I was attending at the time. I went skydiving the day before. (picture coming soon) Not sure why I don't have on a helmet. 😮 This was before Instagram but I stopped for a picture and then came down. 😂
I probably should have done this first. I went down the wall before climbing up. 😂 Now I'm even. #womenwhoexploreillinois #outsideexperience
