An unexplainable joy washed over me. I no longer felt the need to move along to my next spot, and I stayed in that small area, tucked away among the mountains, for quite some time. And even though a magical little letter will never be delivered to me via owl postage, I still found my own way to get to the wonderful wizarding world. https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/words-for-the-mind/baptizedbytheisland monthly 0.5 2025-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/5f94a992-162d-4b18-b62d-0c08eac70609/Untitled+design.png Words for the Mind - Baptized by the Island - Sometimes in life, you find yourself in unexpected places, like on a small Pacific island, all by yourself. Though I was, for all intents and purposes, standing in paradise, I had a few goals while I was there. These included purposely doing things I had never done before and seeking out activities that scared me. It was because of these goals that one beautiful day, I found myself driving out of town (or as fas as one can get from town on an island) and into the vibrantly green and mysterious rainforest. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/94c384dc-a16d-4adf-9ea2-2c707c0e28b6/waves.png Words for the Mind - Baptized by the Island - Step One: Put on our specialized footwear. Step Two: Securely put on our harness and helmet. Step Three: Learn how to properly rappel because within the hours, we would be rappelling down a 30’ and 60’ waterfall. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/ecd92b2d-8f15-4fa2-8733-9672da7a9d03/Image+9-10-25+at+10.50+PM.jpeg Words for the Mind - Baptized by the Island https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/words-for-the-mind/awalkthroughthesky monthly 0.5 2025-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/de01ef9b-775d-4309-804c-7676e5a318a4/Image+9-11-25+at+10.34+PM.jpeg Words for the Mind - A Walk Through the Sky - Perhaps one of the most recognizable landmarks of New River Gorge is its bridge. Standing 876 feet above the river and spanning 3,030 feet long, for years, it was the world’s longest single-arch bridge, though it now sits as the fifth longest. It is also one of the highest vehicular bridges in the world and the third highest in the U.S., with an average of 16,000 cars crossing it every day. Though still relatively new, this impressive structure has already earned its spot on the National Register of Historic Places, and rightfully so — it cuts the travel time across the gorge from 45 minutes to 45 seconds.** But the thrill of the bridge and people’s fascination doesn’t just stop with its stats. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/3b8fe403-ec3e-48bf-a1bf-f9ad73b39a31/However%2C+hundreds+of+miles+away+from+both+of+these+locations%2C+in+far-off+places+without+physical+addresses%2C+let+alone+buildings+or+even+a+sign%2C+is+the+real+wizarding+world+so+many+of+us+have+come+-5.png Words for the Mind - A Walk Through the Sky - Upon returning to the visitor center, we took one last stroll up to the gorge’s rim, this time appreciating the views with our feet firmly in the dirt, and we looked out to the bridge. How abnormal to see tiny human figures moving along, appearing to be suspended in the air, with the bustling traffic so close above. How ironic that my mom was the one who first presented the idea of this adventure, and there just so happened to be two open spots with only a few hours’ notice. And how wonderful, that even a man-made structure in a national park is utilized so that visitors are still able to appreciate the beauty of the land. And how lucky am I?! To have trekked along the earth and through the sky of America’s 63rd national park. https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/home daily 1.0 2026-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/56a918b8-a8a7-4420-a514-e6906926b488/tempImageFl2lWy.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/b5a352a8-989a-47d9-aa18-029e2d2e8a28/IMG_9924.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/805d4868-80ad-4d6b-94f1-03619ccbe4fd/tempImage1ce1Bd.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/cee76817-57f6-4b6c-a6dd-d7efe6dfd9c6/Show+me+what+it+is+I%E2%80%99ve+missed-2.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/a0a87db0-1fc0-4f0c-bd70-6defead29279/Take+me+to+the+shores.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/73ed14fb-e48e-43f9-8a0a-81c1270403c5/a+beautiful+flower+doesn%E2%80%99t-2.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/cef4b2ff-e4e9-4ba7-952b-ccf466061cde/back+2+a+time.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/8f66d4b6-35ca-4d67-9ba0-40922cfea57e/YOU+SET+MY+HOUSE+AFLAME-2.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/ea3d9379-4acb-4eed-8f43-c991602775ee/Standing+on+the+edge+of+a+cliff.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/90c8df99-f698-4448-8305-039ee26a08a1/A7407141.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/58a80d16-1322-4b93-ba7b-4094465a8d2a/tempImageyqFwds.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/222eb60d-5293-4709-894f-32d6824c8482/IMG_0125.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/afa6c25c-08b0-4b77-8861-0d62563ff55c/IMG_7030.jpeg https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/about daily 0.75 2025-09-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/f3cece50-816d-43a5-8d05-bae84d60d166/IMG_9570.jpeg https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-09-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/da208ac0-9748-43e5-a642-672ae4af7528/IMG_8105.jpg https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/wordsforthesoul daily 0.75 2025-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/1b33c476-5faf-4ae2-bd5a-4289cb1c97c3/What+does+the+bird+do-2.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/ef85af8a-38c1-4ddb-b217-a4cc9cd37e5b/Standing+on+the+edge+of+a+cliff.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/b35e0616-5e18-4a2d-84e6-eda142053ca7/YOU+SET+MY+HOUSE+AFLAME-2.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/4ccd786d-5922-4f77-9723-5c810615e6f7/work%21-2.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/b46f294f-008a-4a28-8b27-f9fefd007022/a+beautiful+flower+doesn%E2%80%99t-2.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/ab5618f1-17bb-4546-bdff-cba6300ec3cb/Take+me+to+the+shores.png Words for the Soul https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a68ace16137676f3e30fac/43a6c2ec-e535-4d8d-a49a-20a119560c22/Show+me+what+it+is+I%E2%80%99ve+missed-2.png Words for the Soul https://www.wanderingwomanem.com/shop daily 0.75 2025-09-25
