About us

Christin and Bob married in 2020 after a brief 28-year friendship. So along with Christin’s children Max & Hannah and two cats Poutine & Smeaks, our ready-made family adopted an American cocker spaniel named Lucy during the pandemic. While Lucy goes by many names; The Goose, The Pee Machine, and Stinky Fish Face, her most iconic name is Adventure Dog. She loves nothing more than to be outdoors with her people, jumping on rocks and getting her paws muddy.

The Adventure Dog Blog is our alternative to Facebook for sharing our family experiences with friends and family, as we each seek our own “endlessly changing horizon.”  

 “So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality, nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”  ― Christopher McCandless
