1) Outdoor Activity of choice? kayaking/kayak camping
2) Outdoor Mornings. Up at 5 a.m.? 6…7…8…9…Or when the sun heats up the tent and you can’t take it anymore? up by 6, because sunrise is my favorite time to take photographs
3) Snicker Bar or Granola Bar on the trail? Snickers- but don’t tell my husband
4) Your Birthday is coming. What outdoor (dream) present should we all chip in to buy you this year? a 4-week kayak trip in the Boundary Waters!!!
5) Seven days in the Alaskan Wilderness or Seven days on a Tropical Beach? The wilderness-packin’ it in!
6) What kind of Outdoor Store would you own? I want a “store’ of goods that people could rent/borrow to try various outdoor activities they’ve never tried before.
7) Finish this sentence: When I was a little kid, I loved to… go outside and… lay on the roof and watch clouds
8 ) Do you have an Outdoor related item that is priceless to you? What is it and why? Probably my camera, to capture the moments, but also my husband, who’s my best outdoor bud.
9) Fill in the blank. When I head outdoors I need to have_a camera_with me, at all times!!
10) What’s the story behind your blog name? I wanted something that reflected my love of the outdoors, of the simple life, of the country, of adventure- and all that was left was The Adventures of Mother Nature. Kind of a compilation name!
Courage Level Question: It’s You and a Grizzly Bear face to face on the trail. Knowing yourself, will you 1) Hold your ground and see who blinks first 2) throw your gear at the Grizzly and run for your life or 3) faint on the spot?
Most likely throw the gear,- where’s the option for curl up and whimper like a baby?
Thank you Traci for stepping into the ring of fire for us all!

About Rebecca
Traci—I would never tell on a fellow Snicker Bar friend.
And the curl up and whimper like a baby option is why my backside never survives a Grizzly attack in my minds mental picture attack scenarios. =)
