Go, See, Do, Experience!
Time to be flexible!!!! There was a huge tropical storm in the pacific that dumped a ton of rain on the southwest. Lots of flooding. We had been watching it and the amount of rain. Why? Because we had planned to boondock at Goosenecks State Park in southern Utah right above the Colorado River. The... Continue Reading →
Just a few of my many photos taken in stunning northern Utah. The elevation I was standing at was anywhere from 5000 to 7500 ft above sea level. The mountain tops are over 11,000 ft elevation. Besides the breathtaking beauty, Kevin and I had a marvelous time visiting my parents, siblings and their spouses, and... Continue Reading →
Lava Hot Springs, Idaho, was our next place to stay. We got to Lava Campground (as opposed to KOA Lava Campground that comes up on google) at check in time, 3:00 p.m. The email instructions said to go straight to our site. The trees on the mountains are gorgeous! You have the green pine trees... Continue Reading →
As we left Manhattan, Montana, thankfully it wasn’t foggy but we could see our breath outside. Time to move SOUTH, we said! HA We got into a little rain in Blackfoot, Idaho, but it didn’t slow traffic down at all. We got to Massacre Rocks State Park campground in American Falls, Idaho, and didn’t see... Continue Reading →
We headed on I-90 West for this Travel Day from Garryowen, MT to Manhattan, MT, near Bozeman. The landscape was very dry; we don’t know if it is always that way or just the end of summer. Even the grazing grass was dry. In Hartley, MT we started getting into much bigger ups and downs... Continue Reading →
On our Travel Day to Garryowen, Montana, I read out loud to Kevin the book I am reading, “The Summer of 1876” by Chris Wimmer. Excellent book! The cool thing is, right where I was in the book it is talking about the details of the battle at Little Bighorn. Kevin said “WE ARE DRIVING... Continue Reading →
Travel Day from North Dakota to Sundance, Wyoming. The drive was nice and mostly along a state highway. We started seeing some mini mountains. The fields are grass, not farmed, and we did see some cows grazing. We passed a sign for the turn off to the center of the country. The center of the... Continue Reading →
Kevin and I, along with our friends Richard & Bridget, went sunset-chasing, again, in Theodore Roosevelt National Park. This time we had plenty of time and enjoyed watching from our camp chairs. (See last post for how we barely caught a sunset.) Chateau De Mores State Historic Site, Medora, ND, is just a few miles... Continue Reading →
We crossed the Continental Divide and we were shocked! What? We thought that ran through WY and CO. This was in North Dakota. Hum, must learn more and I did. This one is the Laurentian Divide, although the sign just said Continental Divide. Landscape Changing to Rolling Hills, New Salem, ND 08/25 Continuing on our... Continue Reading →
We started the day at Fargo-Moorhead Visitor Center, in Fargo, North Dakota. The outside looks like a 3 story grain elevator but inside it is open from the first floor to the ceiling. There isn't any history or films but you can get a lot of information brochures about the area. You can buy postcards,... Continue Reading →
