Outdoor adventures and trips: music festival hacks, skateboarding, road trips, sailing in Portland, Maine, cliff jumping and sunflower fields in Deep Creek, Maryland.
Getting out and having some fun was the original motto of ShelbsSays, and this topic collects the posts about it. Shelby wrote about music festivals (with ten hacks she learned the hard way), why social media helps more girls get into skateboarding, and the Broadway Bomb, a skateboarding race through the streets of New York City.
There are also shorter photo stories from trips closer to home: sailing in Portland, Maine, cliff jumping in July and walking through the sunflower fields of Deep Creek, Maryland. Later, after moving to California, she wrote about her first solo road trip in a camper and packing a backpack for her dog on long hikes.
