i'm an on.the.go kinda gal and like to be able to have some fun on the fly while still chillin' in style 
it's all about me + the pups - traveling and exploring our beautiful area 
I never want to miss out or not do something cuz I didn't have the right gear with me.

there are quite a few other things I have with us regularly… 
but they already live on my other lists. 
so feel free to dive in to those too…
