Camping at Davis Camp
Last summer I went camping for the first time and I loved it. Every time we stayed at Davis Camp in Bullhead City, Arizona and probably in part due to my deep connection to the river and part reasons I will never understand, it is now one of my absolute favorite places.

Quarantine Day 16-19: I Accidentally Drank a $350 Bottle of Wine
Although I feel like I have continued to do a pretty good job of staying a productive human being the last few days, I can officially say quarantine has gotten to me and the days are starting to blur. I know I haven't wasted a single day this week. I've gotten up at a decent time every morning, I'm cooking, cleaning and working out. I stay busy. But, I cannot tell you what I have done for the last 3-4 days nor do I have anything to show for those days.

Quarantine Day 12-15: I Built a Shelf
I think I have managed to shake my quarantine slump I was in when I last check in, at least for now. Since my last Corona Journal entry, it's been a fairly productive few days. From cleaning to cooking, gardening and working out, I've managed to stay on top of things and stay pretty busy. My biggest accomplishment to report - I built a shelf!

Quarantine Day 9-11: Looking Forward to Earth Hour
Quarantine is starting to get to me. I'm doing my best to try to keep moving and stay productive, but if I'm being honest with myself I haven't done the best job the last few days. I'm still not sleeping in really late, I'm usually up at least 10-15 min before 8 am, but I had been telling myself I would be up closer to 6 am. When I am up, I'm not being as productive as I should be and in all honesty I'm not even sure where the time is going. I haven't binge watched a ton of TV or spent hours upon hours on YouTube and TikTok.…

Quarantine Day 5-8: I Befriended the Cat
It is the early morning of my 8th day in quarantine, which means I have officially completed my first week! Yay! In my first week I think I have done an okay job of keeping busy, continuing to function like a regular human, and not becoming a complete slob. I only slept in until 8 am once this week, every other day I was up by at least 7:30. I get dressed everyday, usually it is only workout clothes, but at least I'm not living in my pajamas. I've limited myself to only one 20 minute nap a day, and I try to make sure that isn't a daily thing.…

The Hat
In N Out. When you think of Southern California fast food, In N Out is what comes to mind. Whether you have never been to one or you spent your entire life in SoCal, you just can't help it; Whether you know better or not, In N Out is what always comes to mind when you think Southern California burger joint. But, there is another SoCal based local favorite that, even though it's loved by many, seems to always be forgotten. The Hat.

Quarantine Day 3 & 4: My Mom Escaped
I made the fatal quarantine newbie mistake and cleaned my house way too quick. Okay, maybe I shouldn't say "fatal" given the current state of things, but as I said in my Day 1 & 2 entry, I apologize for any inappropriate humor I may use. Anyways, as I was saying, I screwed up and cleaned my house way too quick and now I'm struggling to find ways to kill time.

My Corona Journal: Quarantine Day 1 & 2
This was supposed to be my year, but as of this month shit has officially hit the fan, and for once it's not just a me problem. The world is in a really scary place right now. It was worrisome when it was happening in China. Things got even more scary as it started to spread across Europe. And now that the Coronavirus is here in the US, I'm not even sure my brain knows how to process all this.

Desert Rain
ullhead City, Arizona is a community located directly across the Colorado River from Laughlin, Nevada and not too far from Needles, California. For those of you that still don't know what I'm talking about, it is about 90 miles south of Las Vegas. It is also a major part of my childhood.
