On August 13th we took advantage of the moonlight for our annual Sunset Kayak paddle out to Luau Island.  It was hot but the water helped us cool down and enjoy the evening.

Our August meeting was at The Pub in Mount Juliet. Our trips may be nearly full but we always have a great time catching up with one another. Trip leaders were on hand to answer questions and we went over the full slate of upcoming events. If you missed it, be sure to join us next month!

Jean Sims

Hometown: San Fernando, CA
When did you first join the ski club? 2025
Favorite ski resort? Snowmass

What’s the best trip you ever had?
My best trip is a toss up between a recent Israel/Jordan/Egypt educational trip and a luxury Italy trip. I loved them both!

If you could live anywhere in the world for a year, where would it be?
Living like a local in Italy would be incredible. Although I’d love to return to Japan and live in one of the smaller towns.

What’s your favorite seat on an airplane?
First Class is first choice. However, I’m a happy camper with any window seat. I’ve been fortunate to see some very memorable, unexpected things on flights that I would have missed if not in a window seat – including watching the spectacular Northern Lights for over an hour.

How many countries have you visited outside the US?
14

Do you have any pets? What are their names?
I recently lost my sweet Retriever, Sam. But I love all Goldens!

Do you have a hidden talent?
I design and make custom quilts.

What’s the weirdest food you’ve ever eaten?
Something in Egypt. Still not sure what it was.

What is your favorite dessert?
Chocolate souffle

What are your other favorite hobbies?
Boating has been my other love. Any day on the water is a good day, but sleeping on a boat, waking up on the water and brewing coffee when it’s chilly out – it’s the best! I’m anxious to learn about nice boating places here in the Southern U.S.
