We started February off with our first camping trip of 2013. We needed to get away, clear our heads, and remind ourselves of all the things in our life to be grateful for. A forecast of mid-50’s and sunny didn’t hurt, but we were determined to make our escape no matter what.
Zion National Park is filled with amazing landscapes and photo ops but one of my favorite sights in our time there was this view on the drive in as we experienced the first glimpse of the rainbow colored cliffs.
The weather forecast said it all; highs in the low 50’s, 100 % chance of rain, and 60mph wind. What better weekend for camping at the coast? Some may say we were crazy but I was itching for a weekend in Tequila. It had been nearly two months since we’d cuddled into our cozy cocoon and enjoyed nature and I was more than ready, the weather forecast be damned.
After a shocking one month break from camping, we headed to Central Oregon to Lake Billy Chinook with our new black dog, Porter, and our camping buddies, Ron & Dario. Our favorite moments are spent in the camper, and we were missing it greatly. Although we have a very comfortable house and quite fantastic back yard/palapa we’ve learned that being on the road is where we’re most at home.
Foto Friday comes to you from South Dakota. Mt. Rushmore is a place I’ve been many times throughout my life but Jim experienced it for the first time on our roadtrip around the United States several years ago. Although impressive during the day, I have always loved the view at night.
Bryce Canyon, one of our favorite spots on earth! During our drive around the United States we spent several days here, hiking amongst the spires and enjoying the other-wordly rock formations.
