“Don’t Read That Book To Yourself Anymore”, Las Vegas, NV
The drive to Clark County Shooting Complex, Las Vegas, Nevada was nice. There is a good campground here. Right in front of us is the shotgun range. So fun to watch. The shooting complex is only about 9 minutes from my cataract surgeon’s office and hospital. This made it easy for my follow up and... Continue Reading →
Exploring Chloride, AZ & Christmas Tree Pass, NV
I thought it would be fun to check out Chloride, Arizona. Autio (footnote 1) said it has the longest continuing post office in Arizona. The area had a big silver mine and had over 5000 people living here. It declined when people went off to fight the war. There are people still living here... Continue Reading →
A Catch-Up For You, Reader. :) Homebase.
If you know us or have been reading this blog for a long time, you know Kevin and I have a homebase. We lived for many years in northern Utah. During the time we started camping back in 2020 (camping 180+ days in 16 months) we decided we wanted a change. Not only to travel... Continue Reading →

Lost Dutchman, AZ & Being The Only Deaf Person At Mini Sewing Retreat
Lost Dutchman State Park Campground, Apache Junction, Arizona - I was so excited to go there. We drove through the campground back in 2021 when we flew down here to look for a homebase.

Relaxing Surrounded By Beauty In Idaho
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 →
Wind, Packages, Missouri River Headwaters, & Bozeman, Montana
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 →
