Travel Hag – Travel for Women – girlfriends and goddesses
Outdoor destinations, attractions, activities
Our last Travel Hag Adventure was July 23rd when 15 hags and their hag-men met the outfitters where the Transquaking River is crossed by Drawbridge Road. Travel hags came from the Eastern Shore, Washington DC and Pennsylvania. About half those who met had little or no kayaking experience and most […]
The Travel Hags will meet on Saturday, August 6, 2011 at the Drawbridge Road Crossing of the Transquaking River near Cambridge, MD. From there, outfitters from Blackwater Paddle and Peddle will launch fifteen to twenty women (and maybe a few men) in kayaks down the Transquaking River for a leisurely […]
We have a Travel Hag Adventure planned for July 23rd to paddle the Transquaking River in Lower Dorchester County near Blackwater Wildlife Refuge. A canal has been cut to connect two sections of the river making a five mile loop convenient for paddlers. Since we have a few beginners on […]
On a hot, sunny weekend in June, travel hags from Maryland and Delaware came together for a weekend of fun camping out in Janes Island State Park in Crisifeld, Maryland. We hitched up the r-pod camper to go the few short miles to Janes Island which is located at the […]
Revving up for our Travel Hag Campout this weekend in Janes Island, I discovered many of my hag friends have never been camping and are daunted by the thought of living outside with bugs and dirt with no place to pee. Camping is easy, especially with the great gear available […]
Kayaking on flat water is something almost anyone can do easily. The hardest thing about kayaking is getting in and getting out. The benefits of operating a personal watercraft in such scenic settings as we have on the Eastern Shore are too many to mention here. Well save that for subsequent posts. This video shows two travel hags both over 60 with health challenges, getting into a kayak for the first time … and loving it.
Many of my friends show interest when I mention Dan and I love the outdoors. We kayak, fly fish, hike and explore the hidden landscapes along less-traveled back roads. But in some circles, when I mention camping, the conversation slows – even stops. Then I hear that worn-out, heard-it-a-million-times […]
For all you plus size women out there that are sick of looking at the bikini-clad girls on the beach swatting the volleyball, and you chunky girls who can’t keep up with the trim chics jogging, the cyclists whizzing by, the yoga freaks bending, the Pilates divas focus on their […]
The older I get, the more I hate having to wear a bra. In fact, wearing a bra when you’re kayaking for hours gets old. Like many women, I am adept at unhooking the bra, sliding my arms out of the straps under my shirt and flinging the bra where-ever. […]
WORCESTER AND SOMERSET COUNTIES – MARYLAND Launch Site – Winter Quarters, Pocomoke River Dan and I decided to sack working around the house for the day and instead headed out to explore some of Maryland’s inviting flatwater. Even in the winter, there are endless opportunities for kayak trips on the […]
