Big Adventures and stories from the After Fifty Adventure Man

Big Adventures

Big Adventures or Tiny Adventures? Both sizes keep life fun and interesting, but it’s the Big adventures which fuel the AF Man’s imagination. When there are many miles to travel down a winding road, or along a bumpy trail things get interesting. Life just seems to serve up its own helping of a tasty treats in those scenarios. A veritable smorgasbord of unusual places, characters, situations and predicaments.

Remember, the AF Man “ain’t getting any younger” so Big Adventures provide their own challenges and require new approaches to the miles one might travel each day. The thing is, going slow has its own rewards. Enjoy the AF Man’s stories of Big Adventures!
