Family Friendly Fun: Welcome to Iowa

1/7/2018

Comments

When traveling to a new city, it is important to consider what the city and state has to offer for the entire family. Although the state of Iowa is not a traditional family vacation hot spot, it is a great place to gather with family. Located in the heart of the Midwest, most of the state is just a day’s drive from the major population centers of the region, think Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and more. 

Larger cities, such as Dubuque and Des Moines feature many of the same conveniences of major cities, but also offer the slower pace associated with smaller towns. Despite its reputation as an agricultural powerhouse, the state of Iowa has much, much more to offer. ​

Entertainment 

Though the “Hawkeye State” is known for its corn production, Iowa’s entertainment scene is nothing to scoff at.

The state offers music lovers of all types the chance to see a concert, with country, classic rock, hip hop and pop stars all making stops throughout the state.

Iowa has a few amazing family friendly venues, such as Codfish Hollow, which is a converted barn that hosts both local and national indie bands, as well as GARP Fest, a 2 day music festival with 30 bands that occurs each September.

​Located in a fairly rural part of the state, a visit to Codfish Hollow is an adventure in itself.

Another top entertainment venue in Iowa is the Hoyt Sherman Place Theatre. The theatre hosts top music acts of all types, as well as dance and art performances. Located right in Des Moines, the venue is a must stop for families looking for a fun experience. The venue enhances listener’s experience is by the visually stunning and auditory enhancing architecture.

Sports & Family Fun

Though Iowa does not have a major professional sports team, the state is home to a variety of college and semi-professional teams, each of which have a dedicated following. Iowa is home to a number of single A minor league baseball teams, such as the Quad City River Bandits, the Cedar Rapids Kernels, and the Burlington Bees.

​The Iowa Cubs are the Triple A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. An Iowa Cubs game is a great chance to catch top, young, up and coming Chicago Cubs prospects, as well as star players returning from injury.

Minor league baseball games are notoriously quirky, with many teams having specific game time traditions. Games are cheap and can be a great family bonding opportunity. 
At the college level, Iowa fans are notoriously passionate. The bitter rivalry between the University of Iowa and Iowa State is always a fun game to watch, no matter the sport. The school’s football teams have been meeting since 1894, which is one of the older rivalries in all of college football. Because the two schools are in competition so regularly, a traveling trophy, called the Cy-Hawk Trophy was created. It goes to the winner of the most recent athletic competition between the two schools, whether it be for soccer, basketball or football. If you’re unable to catch one of these amazing in-state rivalry games, don’t fret. Both schools have long running rivalries with out of state schools, such as the Minnesota/Iowa football rivalry, the Iowa State/Missouri or Iowa State/Kansas State rivalry, which always make for exciting contests in their own rights. 

Outdoor Recreation

​For families looking for a more wild experience in Iowa, the state does not disappoint. Iowa is home to an unexpected amount of mountain bike trails with everything from more extreme downhill tracks for experienced riders to crushed gravel paths for those just getting into the sport. Bike rentals are surprisingly affordable and are available at a variety of locations throughout the state. The state also offers miles and miles of paved and gravel bike paths that are perfect for a mellow family outing.

Looking to cool off in the heat of summer? Look no further thanIowa’s Charles City Whitewater Park. Constructed in 2011, the park offers visitors lots of recreation options. From kayaking, to Stand Up Paddleboarding, to tubing, the park also has a few non-water related options as well. A disc golf course, art walk, amphitheater, and play area make this a must stop for families visiting the area. 
Picture
No matter age or interest, Iowa has something for everyone. With lots of art walks and concert venues, families can find a few ways to enjoy Iowa’s entertainment scene. Sports fans can be treated historical rivalry games in nearly any sport. Adventurous families can head to the trails or the river to get their adrenaline fix at one of Iowa’s many outdoor recreation hotspots. Music lovers can attend live shows and immerse in a variety of genres. Although not a tropical destination, Iowa has everything you would want in a family vacation, and more!

Key Biscayne is a barrier Island that sits just South of Miami Beach and is the home of Bill Baggs State Park and the beautiful Ritz Carlton Hotel.

​
The town of Key Biscayne, which is accessible by the Rickenbacker Causeway, sits right between two parks... Crandon Park (formerly a zoo and still home to a variety of birds lizards and turtles) and Bill Baggs State Park.
Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park is the home of a historic lighthouse built in 1825 and the oldest standing structure in Miami-Dade County. The park is popular for sunbathing, swimming and picnicing and there is more than a mile of sandy Atlantic beachfront to enjoy,  Ranked of of the "Top 10 Beaches in America" by Dr. Stephen Leatherman, aka 'Dr. Beach.' Biking and kayaking are also popular activities. Fisherman can throw in their lines from the seawall for some of the best shoreline fishing in the region. Bicycles, beach chairs, and umbrellas can be rented.

Want a guided tour of the lighthouse and lighthouse keeper's cottage? They are given twice daily, Thursdays through Mondays. If you aren't prepared to bring your own picnic, you can also enjoy two restaurants, Lighthouse Café and Boater's Grill, which offers authentic Cuban cuisine.

The Ritz Carlton

​In the heart of the town of Key Biscayne, tucked between the two parks is the stunning Ritz Carlton Hotel.

This viral video of Theresa & CJ's "Moose Encounter" in Banff, Canada has been viewed over 3 million times, as of this date.

"Boreal Monarch" by Terry McCue
by Theresa Malan

​​This happened Thursday December 15th at Peter Lougheed Provincial Park / Kananaskis Alberta. Just outside our home in Banff National Park .  

​My husband CJ Malan and I live in Banff National Park and we love our surroundings. We love our protected environment and on a daily basis we see lots of natural wildlife. Elk, bear, eagles, deer, wolves. Moose are a rarity to see here in this area of Canada but they are here…... I have lived her for 12 years and have only ever seen 4-6 moose and always at a very large distance.

My husband CJ is new to Canada, he is originally from South Africa but has been living in the UK for 10 years with the British military, This is his first year here in Canada so every opportunity we get, we love to be out doors exploring the national parks together. His goal was to see a moose and we totally got more than a  “Spotting” of a moose. I feel like we made friends with this moose!

I work at Canada House Gallery in Banff and now I feel like I need to add “Boreal Monarch” by Terry McCue to our art collection to commemorate our time spent with this cool kind-eyed moose. Terry is one of my fav artists here at the gallery and he is First Nations Ojibway and he is such an incredible colorist and story teller with his paintings…..after this experience I think we need this moose in our life, haha. 
Picture
Moose are quite solitary, and can be aggressive. This moose was probably about 3-5 years old so he was big…..but not the biggest. We drive a Ford escape and he was taller than the vehicle!

He was totally chill and docile.  We went out for a drive that day to specifically see if we could spot a moose as there had been “Moose Warnings” out in that area that they were licking cars….. so we tried our luck.  
Picture
After driving for about 2-3 hours, with no spottings, we decided to turn around and ...Boom! There he was, this beautiful bull, standing still and staring at us out of the woods on the side of the road.

There were two other vehicles pulled over as they were out "back country skiing," and he started licking the other pulled over truck (Moose have learned they can get salt from licking vehicles). We decided to watch from a distance. He was so unbothered and the road we were on was totally quiet and very wide. If had it been anything different we wouldn’t have stuck around, for the safety of the moose. 


After a couple of minutes we were able to roll in a little closer and he knew we were there and watching him, still not caring, and more so looking at us as his next snack and very appreciative.

He then made his way over to us and I was a tad bit apprehensive because, with each step closer he took, the larger he became and it was overwhelming. Yet, he was incredibly gentle and amusing as he made his way around our car, gently bumping his dish (antlers) against our car.


About 10-15 min into his snack on our car the skiers returned to their vehicle behind us and they couldn’t believe what they were witnessing. They were about 20 meters away from us and the moose even knew they were there, taking off all their equipment and loading up their car, and the moose couldn’t care less. He was so infatuated with the salt he was getting for his diet from our car.

Had there been any aggression shown or uncomfortable nature the back country skiers would have gotten into their car for safety…as with us (we never got out of the car or unrolled the windows). Had there been any danger or aggression we wouldn’t have stuck around. We are very very respectful of the animals we live around and advocate for safe and conservation focused wildlife viewing. We are always very responsible and respectful.


We DO see a lot of disrespectful behavior from national park visitors  causing “Bear Jams” which is essentially a traffic jam caused by a bear on the side of the road,  and by people causing a very disruptive stir either by stopping or by getting out of their car for photos (which is SO not cool).

So yea……I’d say we were very lucky to have this moment but had the roads been busy, packed, narrow, or anything of that nature, we would have left straight away.

If you are ever in Banff, please keep your safety, and the safety of our wildlife in mind and, please, stop in to see me at the Gallery!  I'd love to meet you and we are located right downtown at 201 Bear Street, Banff, Alberta, Canada. I'll give you some recommendations on some great places to eat and things to do!

UPDATE: The video and story are making their way around the globe. Scroll down to see some of our favorite ones... including in Russian and Japanese!

Saving "Democracy" One Bald Eagle at a Time

11/12/2016

Comments

 
Picture
Local ABC Affiliate, Channel 9, covered the story live.
Nov 2016, ORLANDO: Shortly after the US Presidential election, the story of two Bald Eagles, the symbol of American freedom, went viral on the internet. It seemed that the two had been fighting over territory and had fallen from the sky into the grate of a sewer drain, where one of them got stuck.

The drama drew a crowd of over 150 of my neighbors (this was just a couple miles from my home), and local TV had streaming coverage that got attention around the world.

​Being just after the drama of the election there were many that tried to turn the birds unfortunate predicament into a political metaphor… “Just shows America is circling the drain,” “Save Democracy,” and other quips appeared in the comments below the streaming video.
​
​Fortunately authorities got ahold of the folks at the local Audubon Center for Birds of Prey and they dispatched an eagle eyed wildlife professional to oversee the rescue effort.

One of the birds did break free and flew up into the sky, continuing to circle and watching the action from up above. The other Eagle fell into the drain where, then, it could not escape at all. Firefighters were careful to tie a rope around the heavy iron grate, before they removed it, in order to prevent it falling on the trapped symbol of America and quashing all our hopes for the future.

Then, using a net, they were able to snare the bird around the legs (the safest place to grab them as their legs are very strong), and pull it to safety.

So today… “Democracy” is recuperating at the Audubon Center and people of ALL political persuasions are pulling together as one, checking on it’s condition and sending donations to help the center with it’s work.

Central Florida is home to many native species, some, like the Bald Eagle, is also found throughout the country and North America. However some species, like the Florida Alligator, or the Manatee, are only found in the Southern States.

If you love wildlife, and are visiting Florida, there are many “once in a lifetime” opportunities to see native and endangered wildlife, sometimes in their natural habits. A few of my favorite places are…
Picture
Audubon Center for Birds of Prey
Audubon Center for Birds of Prey.
Let’s start with the "Hero’s of the day;" the Audubon Center is located in the town of Maitland, in the Orlando area. For travelers and tourists wanting to experience real Florida, the Center provides opportunities to view Bald Eagles, Ospreys, Kites, Owls and Falcons; some of nature’s top predators.  You can learn about the unique adaptations of raptors, challenges they face and ways you can help. 

At the Center’s Gazebo, view the Magic of Flight barn, which houses birds currently under rehabilitation.  Additional exhibits highlight conservation in Florida and include a behind the scenes look into rehabilitation. 

You can learn more and DONATE to the center on their website: http://fl.audubon.org
Back to Nature Wildlife Refuge
...is where locals take any injured or orphaned wildlife they find. “Critter Capture” professionals such as Bob Cross could not do their jobs, without a lot of heartbreak, were it not for the kind folks and volunteers at BTN. 

The Back to Nature motto is “No Animal Left Behind” and, when a local finds a baby raccoon in their yard, when their cat brings home an injured squirrel, when a hunter stumbles upon a baby owl or an abandoned coyote pup, the place they take the rescued critter is to “Back to Nature.”

Check out the BTN Farmers Market on Saturday at the nearby Valencia College campus.

Additionally the Center is OPEN to the public Tues-Sunday from 9 am to 4 pm for just a $5 donation. With over 30 different species, the “Wildlife Walk” is a must see for tourists and locals alike, and one of the best “entertainment values” you’ll find in Central Florida.

Back to Nature is just a 15 minute drive from the Orlando International Airport so many visitors plan their arrivals and departures so they can stop in and spend a few hours before or after their flights.

To get directions and more information, visit Back to Natures site: www.btnwildlife.org

GatorLand
(Ninja Level: 3 out of 5)
No visit to the Orlando area is complete without a stop at GatorLand. You almost feel like you are stepping back in time to the “pre-mouse” days of old Florida, as you can still see elements and hints of how GatorLand must have looked back in 1949 when it was built and run by Owen Godwin, a former postmaster and member of a local ranching family.

Still run by the Godwin family, the 45 acre park has had many facelifts and updates to keep it fresh and to keep families coming back year after year.

Sure they have the standard “Alligator Wrestling” and feeding shows, but they also have a variety of other reptiles in addition to their huge, HUGE gators and crocs. Seriously, they literally have a “mile of monsters” (Hi Bonecrusher!). The park is home to over “24 large alligators and crocodiles whose unique anti-social personalities have left those who work closest with them in need of therapy.” Can’t miss THAT!

In 2011 GatorLand completed the “Screaming Gator Zip Line” … five INTENSE zip lines that dangle you high above the ground along 1200 feet of line and seven platforms. A 150 foot high suspension bridge provides some great views. 1.8 million dollars and it was voted BEST ZIP LINE in the USA by AOL Travel! In 2016 GatorLand even launched a wheelchair accessible ZipLine. Wow... Ninja Level: 2 out of 5, that's more my speed and how great they are providing fun for everyone!

Check out their website and make a date to meet BoneCrusher at: www.gatorland.com

Blue Spring State Park
Depending on the time of year, you might see just a few, or a plethora of endangered Manatees here.

The last time I visited, there were so many Manatees packed into the river by the viewing dock that you could have walked across their backs to the other side without getting your feet wet (except, of course, that would be wrong, you cannot “molest” Manatees, it’s a crime).
​
I think Blue Spring State Park, north of Orlando, is a great place to spend an hour, or a couple of days. It’s slow paced, you get to view some Manatees, walk along some trails (2600 acres so have your GPS with you, lol).

There are picnic areas, but they only have concession type food so bring your own if your idea of dining runs to the “fancier.”

There is the historic old Thursby House, built in 1872 (considered a new house in Rome), that used to house steamboat passengers in days past.

There’s swimming, scuba diving, snorkeling and tubing, as well as kayak and canoe rentals near by at St. Johns River Cruises.

And, if you want to hang out for the weekend, you can always book reservations for your RV or tent at one of 51 campsites (pet friendly, within reason).

Bring your camera, you never know what other critters might be ready to pose for you, but please keep your toddlers and pets SAFE, Florida has wildlife with teeth AND appetites!

Get info on their site here:

If you’re an animal lover, like me, you probably already make them a part of any vacation you take and, besides what I’ve mentioned here, there are literally hundreds of opportunities to enjoy wildlife in Florida. Just use Google to find something near your destination!

As far as "Democracy," the Bald Eagle, goes... sadly, she passed away from her injuries. So, while Democracy is dead, you can still visit her friends at the Audubon Birds of Prey Center and make a donation in her name and in the spirit of freedom.

NOTE: It's a small, small world. Just learned it was Yaileen's boyfriend, Tito, who saw the Bald Eagles fall from the sky and called 911. Yaileen is "our" server at Sweet Mama's

Exploring Florida: Kelly Park, Rock Springs Run, Central Florida

7/23/2016

Exploring Florida
Tubing at Kelly Park.
Rock Springs Run

Central Florida, NW of Orlando
Ninja Level – 2 out of 5
Budget - $ (take cash)

As a lifelong Florida resident I have, sadly, not even begun to cover all the opportunities for adventure and leisure, that it has to offer. You could really spend a lifetime visiting all the unique parks, springs, towns and historical spots within the state... where to start?

Recently though we made a pledge to get off our couch, get out and explore. I'd heard a lot about Rock Springs in Kelly Park and it was close enough for a half day adventure.

I really didn't know what to expect before visiting the park, though I did a quick online search for basic information. It costs (cash only) $3 per car with 1-2 people, $5 for 3-8 and $1 for each extra person in case you've got folks strapped on the roof or something.
  • Click here for link to the park website for more details.

The springs are the perfect place to go in the HOT Florida summer (I frankly find the beaches as attractive an idea as inserting myself in my toaster oven). There are plenty of shade trees and the water is (“Rock Springs” – duh) from a SPRING... meaning it is COOL. Not so cold that you don't adjust to it pretty darn quick, but cool enough that you absolutely feel refreshed.

As we were getting close to the park we stopped just outside at an intersection with a gas station on one side and a place to rent TUBES on the other (no tube rental inside the park). To rent a tube they ask you to leave them your ID (as sort of a deposit to insure you come back), and tubes are just $5 each to rent (take cash for these too). If you have a good sized trunk the tubes will just stack in there and probably not bounce out as you only have a short distance to get to the park (though some people will just stick their hand out the window and hold the tube). Total cost for 3 people: $5 entrance, plus 3 tubes = $20 for an entire day of fun! You can bring your own tubes and floats as well... though be aware they cannot be longer than 5 feet in length (a lot of blow up rafts are 6-7 ft).

We were not planning to stay the whole day so we didn't eat in the park, but you can certainly do that. The park has BBQ grills and picnic tables scattered under the trees and, if you're just feeling lazy, you can pick up sandwiches on your way there or buy food at the park's concession stand where they have hamburgers, hot dogs, ice cream and drinks. Don't bring alcohol or beer though... it's not allowed and, with the number of kids and families there, anyone that is drunk or disorderly is sure to feel the wrath of “Florida Redneck Father” - a common, and occasionally frightening, creature best left unprovoked.


Upon arrival we grabbed our tubes from the trunk of the car and headed down to the Springs to check things out. A little tip: Lock your valuables in the car and put your car key (but not remote) on a lanyard around your neck. This way you won't risk losing the keys by having them fall out of your pocket while swimming, or have to worry about someone stealing them.

The layout of the Springs is such that you will first encounter an area that is about midway from the springs headwaters to the end of the “run.” If you just want to float around a bit, there are stairs to make it easy to get down to the water; so just go for it. Even if you are partially disabled or less limber, it's easy to get in here and you can then float to the end of the “run,” get out on a ramp there and take the tree lined sidewalk back to the midway point. This aspect makes tubing in Rock Springs great for the whole family and we saw many grandparents enjoying the water.


If you want to float down the whole length of the “run,” which is more like a slow stroll down a “lazy river,” then you can take a series of boardwalks up to the springs headwaters. Here you will find it a little trickier to get into the water if you are not limber, because the rocks are a tad slippery. I would certainly not recommend it for anyone that is disabled in any way because slipping on the rocks could leave you with a nasty injury. I did see a rather overweight gentleman manage to navigate an entrance into the water just fine, although it took him a bit of time to figure out the safest way.


The “run” itself takes you down a mostly tree shaded river surrounded by flowers and wildlife. We encountered some Ibis birds that were so intent on nabbing their insect breakfast, and so used to people, they allowed us to come within 4 feet of them. There was also a bit of drama as the park rangers briefly closed off a fork in the river when someone spotted an alligator. It was a baby gator so it was more to protect it, than the noisy humans, but from the level of excitement in the crowd you'd think it was an extraterrestrial.


If you have a waterproof camera or one of the new waterproof smart phones, bring it! You'll be able to capture some great photos of foliage, flowers and maybe even wildlife.


One of the things I liked most about the “lazy river” part of the park is that it is a combination of floating down and walking back. It takes about 25-30 minutes or so to float from the head-springs to the end of the run... and only about 10 minutes to walk back on a beautiful shady path to do it again. This makes it a perfect way to both relax AND get a bit of moderate exercise.


Another thing I liked is that they close the park when it reaches capacity... meaning, while it can get a bit crowded,it's not so overcrowded you can't enjoy yourself.


A word of warning though; you must get there early as the park often reaches capacity very quickly after opening (8:00 am opening time). We were there by 9:00 on a Monday (during summer vacation when the kids are out of school) and they had closed the park already when we left at Noon. The park is open until sunset and they do let additional vehicles in after 1 pm, IF enough of the earlier visitors have left. If you're driving a distance to get there though.. best to plan an early arrival (8-9 am) to avoid disappointment and so you won't have to wait in too long a line to get in and parked.


Kelly Park Rock Springs Run is part of Florida's State Park system and is only about 40 minutes from downtown Orlando and 45-50 minutes from International Drive, making it convenient for a day, or half day, adventure for locals and tourists alike.
