See Park Video On our previous visits to Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming, we've coupled it with a trip to Yellowstone and we've spent a lot of time driving from place to place within the park. Trying to see as much as possible we've focused on the Teton Park...
Our desire to explore won out. After a morning in the campground we headed out. This afternoon Docent Lisa greeted us in the living room of the Mardy & Olaus Murie House, part of The Murie Ranch, an enclave within Grand Teton National Park. Although we had not...
When it became evident to us that a visit to Grand Tetons could in fact fit into our eastbound itinerary, we focused on Gros Ventre Campground. One of its charms is that all 300 campsites are first come first served. There's no one here who made their reservation...
Last evening we enjoyed pizza and live music at Portneuf Valley Brewing in Pocatello, Idaho within easy walking distance then settled in for a pleasant overnight. This morning as we were starting our day in the parking lot of The Museum of Clean we noticed a lone Jeep...

On Chicken Dinner Road in Caldwell, Idaho, we found a treasure in the form of Huston Vineyards. As members of Harvest Hosts we were welcomed and made to feel at home. In the Tasting Room we sampled five amazing Idaho wines and decided to purchase some Chicken Dinner...

Five years after our first visit to Crystal Crane Hot Springs, we no longer remember how we learned about this delightful spot out in the middle of nowhere south of Burns, Oregon but we do remember the smoke from a sage brush fire obscuring the view. This time we...
Choosing a route across southern Oregon means traveling through The northern reaches of the starkly beautiful and sparsely populated Great Basin Desert also referred to by geologists as The Basin and Range Province. Long highways and vast open spaces are dotted with...
Today's route from Ana Reservoir RV Park to Crystal Crane has taken us through some wide open spaces around Table Rock Mountain along Christmas Valley Highway in the northern reaches of the Great Basin desert. This time we knew that we'd find a little oasis in the...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

Little Fox Cafe and Bakery, great for coffee, croissants, and conversation When we first posted that we were updating our website we were in Massachusetts. Shortly thereafter we headed west to Medina. With the trailer safely ensconced in our son's driveway, we settled...
NYC was experiencing flooded roads and subways as we arrived at the Red Hook terminal in Brooklyn. It was quite an adventure to make our way to our Midtown Manhattan Hotel.
Seven day passage from Southampton to New York, the very first Festival of Food and Wine aboard Cunard, passing around Hurricane Nigel in the North Atlantic. So much to do, so little time!
