No road trip would be complete without a drive down the strip in Vegas and a pitstop at the Hoover Dam. We loved the campsite in California, but knew we had to press on if we were going to make it the Grand Canyon. We only took a quick drive down the strip in Las...

We don’t often stay in hotels on the road trips, but when we do we take in all the luxuries of modern living. By that we mean we watched too much TV and chowed down on junk food. Don’t judge us, we all do it sometimes. We checked out of our hotel in Anaheim, CA and...

We made it through the night in our scuzzy San Francisco hotel room safely with only one crazy person pounding on the door in the middle of the night. We simply told him the party was over and he needed to head home. After checking out of the hotel we took one last...

We made it through another cool night in our bear-filled campground and shoved out early to make our way to San Francisco. After roughing it in the backcountry of Yosemite National Park for a couple nights, we were looking forward to a relaxing night in the big city!...

We awoke in our campsite (okay our car…there were bears out through the night!) at Yosemite Creek. When you wake up in Yosemite it’s kind of like waking up for the first time. It’s like having nature wrapped up and given to you as a random gift. One you didn’t...

After a peaceful night tucked away on an Antelope Island, we rose to a sunrise like no other. Although we say that about pretty much every sunrise on the trip. We packed up the car, took a shower with the brine flies (seriously, they were everywhere), and set out to...

Early morning and nearly chilled to the bone, we woke to a new side of Yellowstone. A side of the park filled with fog and simple songs from a thousand different birds. We had a quick bite to eat and packed our things to go explore the southwest side of the park. We...

We spent the night in our cozy digs in Sheridan, WY dreaming of bears because we just KNEW we were going to find some when we made it to Yellowstone National Park. Mark’s life purpose was (and still is) to see and befriend a grizzly bear. What we didn’t know was that...

We woke up with tears in our eyes because we knew we would soon have to leave the Badlands. Luckily, we had a few hours before we had to leave. We woke up at 4am to shower and pack up the car. Around 5:30 am with coffee in hand, we sprinted toward the east side of the...

Although we thoroughly enjoyed (and needed) the sleep, we woke up eager to hit the road. Day 2 would present our first silly roadside attraction and our first national park. This day would offer new states, new sites, and new adventures we couldn’t even imagine. We...
