June 28-July 5 After two months on the road we arrived at one of the planned highlights of our trip. Glacier National Park has always appealed to us for its origins and remoteness. We wanted to find a campground to match the natural setting of this area and we were not disappointed. But back to … More Glacier National Park, Montana
June 17-19 To quote Calvin Coolidge “a weird and scenic landscape peculiar to itself” I couldn’t agree more. We planned a few days to see Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve, the town of Ketchum and some of the region’s famous hot springs. We had a pretty easy flat but very windy … More Craters of the Moon, Ketchum and Lava Hot Springs
June 6-10 After a couple of days off the grid in Kodachrome Basin (no internet, cell or satellite reception, but we did have water and electricity!) it was a welcomed change to get cell coverage and internet when we checked into our new RV stop, Portal RV Resort in Moab… yeayy! It’s amazing how much … More Moab, Arches and Canyonland, Utah
June 4 We left Zion in the early morning on our way to our second stop in Utah’s grand circle of national parks. Our route took us through Utah’s first scenic road, highway 12, and wow, highway 12 did not disappoint. So much so that Leo kicked me out of the motor home to … More Bryce Canyon National Park and Kodachrome Basin State Park Campground, Utah
June 2 The Virgin River working hard in Zion National Park! If you want to feel infinitesimal, then take a hike along the many trails in Zion where the Virgin river has been and still is, hard at work rock carving and Canyon building. We drove to the park early because the people at the … More Zion National Park, Utah
May 30 We arrived in Page in the early afternoon to a scorching red hot sun. Leo had a bit of a scuffle with the RV park office person because they assigned us a terrible spot even though we had made the reservation months ago and had requested a very nice site towards the back … More Page, Arizona
Grand Canyon May 28 Leo warned me, we are headed deep into a national park, get ready for three days without wifi, I braced myself, but once we arrived, oh my what views! Nothing, not even the countless documentaries and pictures I had seen about the Grand Canyon, prepared me for the beauty and the … More Grand Canyon
May 21 After driving six hours from Taos, New Mexico and settling in at our RV park I turned my attention to the Petrified Forest National Park. I have to admit I didn’t know anything about it beyond the fact that ancient trees had been turned into rocks, that’s all I knew. It turns out … More Petrified Forest National Park and Meteor Crater, Arizona
May 19 We woke up this morning to a snow storm. Well it wasn’t as bad as that but snow was coming at us from over the mountains and the temperature was 32 degrees, that’s cold!!. So we settled in our motor home, snug as a bug in a rug and waited out the … More Taos Pueblo
May 15 Leo and I are huge fans of the Preston and Childs adventure series books. It has been Leo’s goal to hike a slot canyon in the Jemez mountains where many nasty, scary things happened in some of these books. Today he got his wish. We drove about 39 minutes from our campground in Santa … More Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks
