I walked with the polar bears and wolves with Churchill Wild at Nanuk Polar Bear Lodge near Hudson Bay in Canada.

I was on KTLA TV in Los Angeles three times talking about travel in Napa, California, Ogden, Utah and Palm Springs!

I was live on the news in many states in May 2018 talking about Monterey, California! I have a few of the segments to share:

I was a speaker at the HOLLYWOOD IMPROV!

I went to my first dude ranch in Tucson, Arizona and learned to throw an Axe!

My art was displayed at Artworks Park City on Main Street.

I flew in a helicopter and landed in the Grand Canyon!

I went skiing outside of the USA for the first time and loved the slopes at Lake Louise Resort and Banff Sunshine Village in Canada. I even crossed the continental divide! I went to Montreal for the first time, hula-hooped on the Rocky Mountaineer and went to my first drive-in in Toronto!

I wrote articles for AARP, Robb Report, Ski Utah, Scuba Diver Life, Wharton Magazine and the Jewish Journal.

I was nominated for three more Press Club Awards for stories for Smithsonian, Saturday Evening Post and Popsugar!
