It all sounded so inviting; crossing the river by row-boat to visit the town of Boquillas. We planned to spend much of the day there so we set out early. We were the first to cross that day, made obvious by the dozens of empty 5-gallon gas cans came across...
The Airstream went in for a few weeks of repairs – minor repairs, nothing to be worried about – so we piled into the ‘vacation home’ that is Big Blue (yes, he will still be known as Big Blue) and set out for a weekend journey. First stop was a...
We have moved a good distance since my last post back in Idaho, so allow me to catch up some… We left Stanley, Idaho with the plan of a single night’s stay in an established campground not far down the road at yet another hot spring. We thought we would...
When we left Ketchum we were unsure where we were going to be staying that night. Our backup was an RV park in Stanley, Idaho. We were hoping to stay only a single night there, and depending on if there was good Verizon or not we would stay longer if...
With a day of exploring scheduled Kerri and I set out find a few items on the map. As luck would have it, we needed only travel on a single road to get them all in. The first of which is the ghost town of Bonanza, Idaho. Bonanza was founded...
On the drive from the Grand Teton area to Craters of the Moon, we dropped in on Hell’s half acre. Although not a national park (or even a State park) Hell’s half acre is a lava field of more than 68,000 acres with one “hell” of a trail system on...
We left our overnight spot in the Aspen grove early the next morning. Even with some mileage cut off our route from the previous day’s extra drive, it was still a moderately long haul for the day, and we had two locations along the route to visit. We would be...
We had found an “OK” spot (not great, but would have done the trick) to camp in the National Forest, but thanks to the heat of being waaaay down here at 4,000 ft elevation, we chose to home base out of an RV park in Custer, SD so the A/C...
We spent a portion of an afternoon at the Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historical Site which marks the only time we went into Laramie proper during our stay here. We toured the old prison which was in use from the 1870’s to 1903 both as a Federal and State penitentiary,...
Ever since June of 2015, hot springs have been somewhat of a let down. It was on our drive up the AlCan Highway that we stopped in at the Liard Hot Springs and soaked in easily the best hot spring there ever was. Ever since that day we have been...
