Before a new adventure, my husband (like his father) will always say “We quest for adventure”. Our quest for adventure paved the way for Mariposa Travel, which has become our way to remember, document, and share our adventures. We hope this blog inspires you to quest for new adventures!
“Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.”

Nashville, TN Rock’n Road Trip
After leaving the Birthplace of Rock ‘n’ Roll, we headed on over to the Country Music Capitol of the World…Nashville, Tennessee. We wanted to learn about the history of Country Music, so we headed down to Music Row.
Memphis, TN Rock'n Road Trip
Gospel, Jazz, Blues, Soul and Rockabilly combined to produce the unique Memphis Music tradition. So we grabbed our “Blue Suede Shoes” and went “Walking in Memphis” to learn all about that legacy still enjoyed by music lovers today. We were “All Shook Up” over all that you could explore and learn in Memphis, Tennessee. From Stax Museum to Graceland…you just “Can’t Help Falling in Love”! Follow along as we spend three days in the Birthplace of Rock‘n Roll.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Great Smoky Mountains National Park was such a feast for the eyes. Just like the Osborne Brothers said, “Don’t let Smoky Mountain smoke get in your eyes. If you do, I’m telling you, you’ll want to live there the rest of your life.” We visited the last week of September. The weather was just right for camping, and the leaves were starting to change.
