Life Is an Adventure illustrates eighty years of adventure in a memoir by Beth Dayley. Her memoir shows her endeavors to live life to the fullest wherever she lived, whether on the Big Island in Hawaii in the 1970s, in Southern Alabama at the army aviation center in the 1980s, or learning a foreign language in Northern Italy during the Cold War, where her husband served as the operations officer for Southern European Task Force--everything military south of the Alps.
Whether exploring ancient cliff dwellings in Eastern Utah as a child, to being a teen during the '60s, to being a cultural outcast when her husband served two tours of Vietnam, to finding her teenage son who had hopped a train by himself when they lived in Italy, Dayley has always kept her head on straight and laughed at life as she negotiated the journey of life. Whether driving through the rain across Europe to graduate from the University of Maryland Global Division at the University of Heidelberg during its four hundredth anniversary to driving in Los Angeles traffic when her husband received a lung transplant at Cedar-Sinai Hospital, life has always been full of surprises.
