Visiting Children’s Museums on our Journey
Most of our time is spent camping, hiking and biking in state and national parks, but we regularly stay in or near large cities on our travels. When we do, one of the activities that we, especially the kids, enjoy is spending a day at a children’s museum. Today, I’m writing this post from the […]
Day Hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park
On our last stop in the Rockies before descending into the plains on our way east, we visited Rocky Mountain National Park. We camped just outside the park in Estes Park so that we could have a full utility hookup, letting us run our heater all night. In September, fall is in full swing in […]
Biking the KATY Trail, Jefferson City, Missouri
If you’ve not heard of Rails To Trails, it’s the conversion of old railroad passages into multi-use paths for recreation. The KATY trail is one of these Rails to Trails. Stretching over 200 miles across Missouri along the bank of the Missouri River, it is one of the longer trails out there. As we were […]
My Love/Hate Relationship: Hiking with Young Kids
Small hikes with our kids are great. Anything under 3 miles is usually a doable morning activity. Sometimes, we’ll let them both walk and just spend the whole morning doing only a 3 mile trail. This is wonderful. Wonderful in that we’re teaching them to love hiking. Wonderful in that they’re getting exercise and enjoying […]
We Got a Pet!
Did I tell you the big news? We got a pet! If you know Mark and me this is a huge shock to you. To say we’re not animal lovers is to put it mildly. In fact if someone were to say “You have to choose between raising another kid or a dog?” I think […]
Sledding at Great Sand Dunes National Park, Colorado
I underestimated the size of the sand dunes at Great Sand Dunes National Park. Not only are they taller than I expected, but also they are more expansive. Covering 300 square miles at 8,000 feet in elevation among the Rockies, the dunes are really impressive. There are hikes in and around the dunes and overnight […]
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo
I’ve shared about Jane’s obsession with the Lion King. But my sweet Wilson. Do you want to know who his favorite Disney character is? Yup! The Fairy Godmother from Cinderella. I know. You’re scratching your head. Why on earth does he like the Fairy Godmother? What about Lightning McQueen? What about Peter Pan? What about […]
A Vacation From Full-Time Travel in San Francisco
Traveling full time is so different than a vacation. Anyone who’s ever tried to go anywhere with young children knows that most of the time trips are work. They are not a vacation. Traveling full-time is a lot of work, and sometimes we need to break up the work of day-to-day travel with a little […]
Cheap Thrills in Great Basin National Park – Baker, Nevada
When we left San Francisco after Labor Day Weekend, we planned to spend a few days at Lake Tahoe. When we arrived at Lake Tahoe though, we decided to blow it off and blaze another six hours across The Loneliest Highway in America to Great Basin National Park. We’d already seen Tahoe, and we wanted […]
