What Will She Do Next?

Hello Sunshine!

I decided to share with you what adventures I have in the works. My head is spinning of new ways to explore the world around me and even more ways to share it with you.
Before I share where I'm going, I'm going to lay down some ground rules for myself.
  1. I will be taking my camera with me everywhere I go. Words are fun, but they hardly can describe the natural beauty and excitment of life.
  2. I will do my best to experience EVERY part of the adventure. For instance, if I go to a concert and a mosh pit breaks out, I will jump in (closer to the outside with a possibility of escape while my friend holds the camera, but it will happen). 
  3. And finally, I post about it within two days of the adventure (this does not apply to #TBT posts where I tell about an adventure I went on prior to starting the blog.)

Now for the good part!

My next adventure will be to the Haunted Circus right here in Edmond.
Now, if you've met me you will know that I love abandoned places. If it's old, dirty, and a little bit creepy then I'm all over it.
The Haunted Circus used to be called Ghandini's Circus in the early 1900s. It burned down, but there is very little evidence about how or why it did. Some articles I've read point to arson and some point to witchcraft. Either way the circus was destroyed and it's remains still sit in a field here in town. You can read more about the circus here.


I also have plans to attend Life in Color in October.
I actually attended this event when the came to OKC last year and I had a blast! It isn't often socially acceptable to be drenched in paint from head to toe but I found the experience to be fun and liberating!
For those of you who don't know Life in Color is an EDM concert where spectators are blasted with paint and shown a spectacular show of music and acrobatics. Granted, there is a good amount of drugs and debauchery happening in the crowd but it is possible to have fun there without all that.
I will say that last year I went home with a concussion and a ruptured ear drum so I will be taking precautions, but I'm 100% ready to GO HARD IN THE PAINT!

Finally, to wind my self down from all this excitement, I want to plan a trip to Natural Falls State Park.
Granted this trip is the one I've done the least planing for. I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to go, but I can't miss the chance to go camping in the Ozark highlands of Oklahoma where the state's only 77-foot waterfall happens to reside. This trip obviously has a long way to go in the planning stages before I can make it a reality, but it will happen. You can learn more about this beautiful location here.

So that's where I'm going.

Yeah, yeah, I know I still have some planning and work to do (especially on that last one) but I'm excited nevertheless. My Haunted Circus adventure will be out next week. See you soon and keep on adventuring!
