Although she’s really not bad to look at, it’s pretty obvious that I married my sweet bride for her brains. Thinking well ahead of time, actually before I knew we were going, smart Joanie secured reservations for us to get into Arches National Park. Since I’m an illogical person I assumed that you could justContinue reading “Arches National Park”

Last night I had a terrible dream. I was standing naked on a Highway and everyone I knew was driving past me and not even looking at me. Then I walked to school and I was late for an exam that I needed to Ace so that I would pass, and on top of thatContinue reading “Drive to Utah”

Our drive north from Phoenix took us around the fires but we could see the clouds of smoke coming from them. We had a great drive and took a small section of Route 66 through Winslow, AZ. Be very happy that you didn’t have to listen to my poor rendition of Take It Easy… SinceContinue reading “Page, AZ and Beyond”

We spent yesterday checking out the Chihuly Exhibit at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix. What are the chances that there are 2 Chihuly exhibits going at the same time? It turns out pretty good, we started out at Taliesin West (Frank Lloyd Wrights home) and were told we were in the wrong place…after aContinue reading “Last day in Phoenix”

We’ve spent the last two nights just outside Phoenix at the Eagle View RV Resort. Little Al is beyond confused as the temperature at night kicks on his heater and during the day his a/c runs. We’ve been getting up early and doing most of our hiking/walking early to avoid the 90+ degree temperatures. IContinue reading “Around Phoenix”

We’ll it’s official, we’ve had to take our names off the homeless club registrar since we were able to move back into our condo. It was a fun run but I can say it’s actually pretty great to be able to sleep in our own bed, just wish we hadn’t sold our bedroom set toContinue reading “Back Out Again”

We’ve made our way back to the Vineyards Campground in Grapevine with Little Al for a week stay. Although we are still homeless for a few more weeks this is the closest we’ve been to being in our own bed in a while. Little Al is more than excited to see us and had quiteContinue reading “Back To Normal…Almost”

We ended up staying in Louisiana long enough to enjoy plenty of seafood and just enough parades (and beads) to meet our needs. Unfortunately it was too cold to see Marie Osmond, we stood in a shady convenience store for over 30 minutes instead waiting for our Uber driver to navigate the closed streets forContinue reading “Back in Texas”

Well it turns out that planning to be away from home for two months is a great idea in theory, but living out of a truck and moving location every few days isn’t the ideal life. It seemed so easy in Little Al but he’s actually like a moving house where we can actually storeContinue reading “Heading Home”
