April 13, 2017 We had the most amazing time at Bryce yesterday. We hiked the Navajo loop/Queens Garden trail and it was beautiful. You ascend into hoodoos and then walk through an alpine forest. It reminded me of home. We stopped for lunch at the bottom and just sat looking at the red rocks. The … Continue reading Bryce Canyon National Park
Capitol Reef National Park
April 12, 2017 We drove from Monument Valley to Capitol Reef yesterday. On the way we stopped at Natural Bridges National Monument. It was a really nice area and we even got to hike under a bridge.

Monument Valley
April 11, 2017 Yesterday we drove from Moab to Monument Valley. It was a long and boring drive but we stopped at the four corners monument. It was $5 per person to get in but it was fun to stand in four states at once. We stayed at The View hotel in Monument Valley and … Continue reading Monument Valley
Canyonlands National Park
April 10, 2017, After dinner we went up to Canyonlands National Park to watch the sunset. We parked the van right on a cliff and laid in the back. It was so peaceful and beautiful. It is so nice to have Arches and Canyonlands so close together. We only got to go to the Island … Continue reading Canyonlands National Park
Arches National Park
April 10, 2017 Just spent 2 days in Moab. We got there on Saturday and went to the store. Kirk saw a great deal on firewood so he bought three bundles. Of course we get to the RV resort and there's no campfires allowed. The camp sites were tight and the shower sucked but we … Continue reading Arches National Park
Antelope Island State Park
April 8, 2017 We drove from Pendelton to Salt Lake City yesterday and it was pretty easy. We stopped in Boise for lunch and there were so many families and kids it was crazy. Things started to get familiar remember our previous trip. Kirk says Goldie gets better gas mileage than our rental but I … Continue reading Antelope Island State Park
Seattle to Pendleton
April 7, 2017 First night in Goldie was a success. We drove from Kent to Pendleton with no issues. We thought about going to the casino but the bed looked so enticing. We watched maybe 20 minutes of the British Baking show and fell asleep. We were soon awoken by the strong winds of eastern … Continue reading Seattle to Pendleton
Crater Lake National Park
In an effort to see as many national parks as possible we squeaked our way up to Crater Lake. We stayed the night in beautiful Klamath Falls then drove up the mountain where the same 15 feet of snow was waiting for us. The visitor center was open in April but the rim drive was … Continue reading Crater Lake National Park
Lassen Volcanic National Park
On our way up eastern California we made a quick stop at Lassen Volcanic National Park. When we got there we realized that the park doesn't typically open until the summer time. It was still about 15 feet under snow. The visitor center was open and we explored that but that was about as far … Continue reading Lassen Volcanic National Park
Death Valley National Park
April 7, 2016 After spending two days in Las Vegas we made our way back up to Seattle. Our first stop was Death Valley National Park. We were quick to drive through it but not before stopping at the sand dunes and the visitor center. We climbed to the top of one of the sand … Continue reading Death Valley National Park
