The good life starts with being present and being on purpose.
We should all follow the path that makes us happy and well... content in body, mind, and spirit... with a positive purpose.
I'm David Ashley, David on Earth when I'm on trail. And I am SO thrilled you are reading this.
A little about me: I've been happily married for all my adult life to the same wonderful woman.
She gave me two beautiful girls who blessed me with four grandchildren.
Currently I live in Colorado, but I've lived throughout the Midwest and traveled the world for 20 years when I was in the Air Force.
On this site I bring you stories of the trail and insights from my pursuit of the good life. I've logged 2000 trail miles over the past 6 years. In 2018 I hiked the 500-mile Colorado Trail. In 2020 I began my section hike of the Arizona Trail.
