Nanny’s Irises!! In 2016 I brought about 20 iris bulbs back from my parents’ house in West Virginia. My mom had taken those bulbs from my grandparents’ house in Pennsylvania. I nearly forgot to bring them from the first Co Springs house to this current one, but I remembered! And this year — blooms!!! Out of the 15 or so in the yard, only two are producing flowers this year, and this is the first. #iris #familyflowers #cogardening

One of the things I’m excited about with not having to move again for a long time is having lots of flowers to decorate my kitchen. #lilacssmelllikehappiness

Taking a run at the park before T’s baseball game. To think this will probably fill in with houses in the next couple years… #sprawl #falcon #colorado

The island of Dominica in the eastern Caribbean Sea has been emerging as an eco-tourism destination in recent years. The Waitukubuli National Trail covers 184 km/115 miles along a north-south route through rain forests and the Morne Trois Pitons National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take a swim in the park’s Emerald Pool and see if it’s alleged healing powers and “fountain of youth” qualities work for you. (I did in February 2016…the jury’s still out…) #heritage4generations #icomos #internationaldayformonumentsandsites @geekmomblog

Here I am in October 1999, looking like a child. Biryong Falls in Seoraksan National Park is so named for a reference to the falls appearing like flying dragons. The falls are open year-round, with visitors wanting to see them when frozen. #heritage4generations #icomos #internationaldayformonumentsandsites @geekmomblog

Sorak-san is South Korea’s third highest mountain at over 1700m/5600′, around which is a beautiful national park. Dave and I had the chance to spend a long weekend at the park about 3 hours northeast of Seoul. #heritage4generations #icomos #internationaldayformonumentsandsites @geekmomblog

One of the things I was most proud of was hiking up to the mountaintop watchtower at the Mutiamyu section of the Great Wall of China in February 2000. There are numerous preserved areas of the wall that are open to visitors, this one is closest to Beijing and therefore can get quite crowded. It’s worth the hike to get an understanding of how soldiers in the 6th C. had to stand watch. #heritage4generations #icomos #internationaldayformonumentsandsites @geekmomblog

The Vollmers have been to many #heritage4generations sites over the years. Here they are with Chairman Mao in Tiananmen Square in Beijing in February 2000! #icomos @geekmomblog
