More of New Mexico, this time, we were working our way back into the national park system. First stop, Great Sand Dunes National Park. The dunes were huge, and it was an amazing sight to see with snow-capped mountains in the back ground. Our vehicle was not allowed on the primitive 4wd roads, so we were … More Great Sand Dunes National Park & White Sands National Monument
We really loved New Mexico. There was so much to see and experience, if we had stayed a year, we still wouldn’t have seen and done everything, but we were going to try to fit in as much as we could. On our way to Santa Fe, we stopped at the Puye Cliff Dwellings. It … More Wandering in New Mexico
The cold weather was on our heels, so our plan only had room for a quick stop in Taos. We thought we might grab a meal as we continued to sunshine and warmth. Then we found out their balloon festival was coming up, so of course we had to stay for that. The festival was … More Taos, New Mexico
Once again, we arrived at another park at the end of their busy season. We usually like this, since it generally means fewer crowds, but at Mesa Verde National Park, the best cliff dwellings are only accessible via ranger guided tour, and those wrap up at the end of the season. We were too late … More Mesa Verde National Park
Wow. Just WOW. Neither of us had ever been to Black Canyons of the Gunnison National Park before now. In fact, prior to this journey, we didn’t really know it existed. It was amazingly awesome. The Gunnison River helped carve some of the most amazing canyons we’ve seen. Even in the park, you don’t appreciate … More Black Canyons of the Gunnison National Park
As much as we are loving the full time RV life, we also love vacationing in sunny locations like Mexico. So we use our credit card travel points for getaways once in a while. Cabo San Lucas is one of our favorite destinations, because of the people, the beaches, and the food. As a matter … More Cabo San Lucas
We’ve had many friends tell us we had to stop in Estes Park on our way to Rocky Mountain National Park, and we are so glad we took their advice. Besides the fun shops we discovered, we also had time to enjoy lunch at the Stanley Hotel. This historic hotel was Stephen King’s inspiration for … More Rocky Mountain National Park
Making our way to Colorado, we stopped in the ghost town of South Pass City to visit family. This little town used to be a gold mining camp, and is a few miles north of the Oregon Trail. We were there right after the tourist season ended, and the buildings in town were being closed … More South Pass City, Wyoming
Even on an overcast day, this park is breathtaking. We went to the visitor’s center to see what was going on in the park that week, and found out that the moose were very active, defending their ladies and fighting for more. Of course, we launched on a mission to find them. Before we could … More Grand Teton National Park
We’ve been to Yellowstone as kids, but there was always a time limit, as we had to get back to school, and parents had to get back to work. This time, we had no schedule, and were able to explore much more of the park. As we made our way towards West Yellowstone, we were … More Yellowstone National Park
