Today we drove through Utah from Green River to Panguitch, headed for a hotel located about 15 minutes outside of Bryce Canyon National Park. We opted for the longer scenic route that took us down Route 12, and also planned a short detour to visit Goblin…
Hiking the Needles
Here we are at Day 26! The trip odometer passed 7,000 miles this morning on our way to Canyonlands National Park in Utah. It’s hard to believe that we have been on the road for almost a full month. Time is…
We climbed Pikes Peak

We’re in Boulder, Colorado
Just a short update tonight because it’s late and we’re pretty tired after a full day of driving (almost 600 miles!). We’re just outside of Boulder, CO, in a $58/night room booked through Hotwire. While here, we plan to see Rocky Mountain National Park…

It’s snowing in Jackson, Wyoming
We arrived in Jackson tonight to find about six inches of snow piled on the sides of the roads leading into town. It’s cold here! Thankfully the forecast calls for it to warm up so we don’t have to freeze…
The mystical 12-hour drive to Wyoming
Good evening from very chilly Jackson, Wyoming! Today’s drive was the longest so far and the most dramatic.
