About Me

M. J. Good-Leake

M. J. Good-Leake

I am Blogger, Creative Writer, Poet, Wildlife & Landscape Photographer. As a retiree full-time travel blogger touring the U.S., I provide my opinion, wisdom, and thoughts about travel, retirement lifestyle, and life. I'm an aspiring pre-published indie author of baby boomer romance and adventures with a whimsical comedic side. I enjoy photographing wildlife and landscapes, mountain biking, kayaking, hiking, and backpacking. I mostly travel the back roads of America, Canada, and Mexico, documenting my adventures via print and photography.
