Spectacular is the only way to describe the views at Zion. Since we were unable to actually go into the Canyon, the first tram tickets available were August, we took a nice hike to the overlook. Although a short mile plus hike, we were still able to see the beautiful cliffs and enjoy the nearContinue reading “Zion”

We have spent the last two days in St George hanging with the Rays, they are the best tour guides to the vicinity and as an added bonus know the best local hikes. We’ve had to delay pickle ball because of high winds, Dick didn’t seem at all disappointed. Yesterday we hiked The Lower SandContinue reading “St. George Time”

After we made our way into Utah we were able to find a KOA just north of Bryce Canyon National Park, it was a great location to explore the Park and wind down for a couple of days. The scenery was without a doubt the best we’ve seen so far, weather was anywhere from 35Continue reading “Hoodoos and Caves”

Our last two adventures before entering Utah was the Walnut Canyon National Monument near Flagstaff and the Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River very close to Lake Powell. Those were Joan’s anyway, I thought the fried chicken stood out at the Bird House in Page…but eating is my hobby and good fried chicken has aContinue reading “Walnut Canyon and Horseshoe Bend”

(Yesterday’s News, WiFi no bueno) After multiple stops and many miles we’ve decided to stop for at least two nights in AZ. We’ve been able to easily find spots to stay at but weekends are much harder to reserve, and pretty much all National and State Parks are hard to reserve any day. Next timeContinue reading “Need To Slow Down”

Mobile Maintenance Bro, “Yea sorry but it looks like your water heater tank is cracked, you’ll have to replace the whole thing.” Marc, “The whole thing, why not just the tank?” MMB, “Heck it’s only $600 plus installation and you get a new water heater plus a warranty.” Marc, “My water heater is fine andContinue reading “Onward North To ….”

After ignoring Little Al for over a month we decided it’s time to take his handcuff off and get on the road. Just like all of our travels we have a starting point and a destination but will “fly by the seat of our pants” in between. Destination St. George, Utah. Little Al decided toContinue reading “Little Al Says “Let’s Go””

After leaving Dallas with only a plan to stop in Abilene for Joanie’s 2nd vaccine, we decided that Ruidoso would be a great place to stop for a few nights. Our first night in Little Al since the Texas Arctic blast last month, it appears I did a poor job of winterizing because after hookingContinue reading “Ruidoso, NM”

With the beautiful weather came the flow of beach goers to Port A. I learned my lesson about asking anyone on the beach what they were catching, digging for, or any other question…turns out they are all “close talkers”. Lesson learned. Checked out the RV park on the end of the island, IB Magee StateContinue reading “Port Aransas Beach”

There were not a lot of good things that came from the result of Hurricane Harvey in 2017, but one thing that was positive was how much they have fixed up the state parks. We have already decided when we come back we will stay at Goose Island, today we added Mustang Island State ParkContinue reading “Mustang Island State Park”
