07-15-21: Up early I was hoping to beat the crowds and arrived at the Eastern entrance by 7:30am. It is hard to overstate just how big Yellowstone is, at nearly 3400 square miles or 2.2 million acres it is larger than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined. Not exactly a day trip! MyContinue reading “Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming”

Cody, Wyoming
07-13-21: Arriving in Cody a visit to the Buffalo Bill Center of the West seemed like the thing to do, with my love of museums they had me at “Easy RV parking”.

Salt Lake City and Park City Utah
7-4-21: I had scheduled a couple nights in a hotel in the SLC area, I needed some downtime to do laundry and take a LONG HOT shower after being in the RV for over a month.

Bryce Canyon, Utah
6-28-21: Reluctantly leaving Cedar Breaks, it was a short drive to the RV park outside of Bryce Canyon. Having been unable to secure a spot in the actual park campground I had made reservations at a private RV park about 20 miles outside the Park. Upon arriving I was told by the nice office folksContinue reading “Bryce Canyon, Utah”
Reunions and good friends
Starting my “Epic Road Trip” on Memorial day weekend was perhaps not my brightest idea… Leaving Northern California after a visit with family I realized the error in my ways as soon as the I-5 traffic reared its ugly head near Sacramento. The planned 4 hour drive was more like 6.5 when all was saidContinue reading “Reunions and good friends”
Cedar Breaks National Monument, Utah

Vegas Baby!!
Honoring a long standing tradition, I met with my buddy Dave to celebrate our June birthdays in style and that means Vegas! We always start by driving fast cars on Exotics Racing‘s track and then go cool off and wander around the forum shops at Caesars Palace staring at all the cool watches. Exotics Racing:Continue reading “Vegas Baby!!”
Palm Springs/Salton Sea/San Diego
6-17-21: Hoping for some relief after the 125 degree days in Death Valley, I had plans to finish the week in Palm Springs, still the desert… right. Shadow hills RV park was very nice and had placed me in a spot that would shade me from the afternoon sun, but with temps in the 112-115Continue reading “Palm Springs/Salton Sea/San Diego”

Leaving Lone Pine, I was off to visit Death Valley for 2 nights. Lucky for me there is a heat wave affecting the west coast at the moment. I’m glad I decided to leave the trailer behind in Lone Pine and had booked a room at the Inn at Death Valley Only a short driveContinue reading “Death Valley”
