There is an enchanted place in the middle of the Arizona desert that draws people of all ages from all parts of our country and Canada. It’s called the Nellie E. Saloon or, Desert Bar for short. Ask any person with a Jeep or UTV or any snowbird about Desert Bar and I bet you…

Lake Havasu Balloon Fest
The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is world famous, and it should be. It’s the granddaddy of balloon festivals for sure. But you don’t have to wait until October or practically win the lottery getting a reservation. Lake Havasu has a fun option for you and I guarantee you’ll have just as much fun. The Lake Havasu…
Wine Please
The secret it out on the vineyards that make up the Temecula Valley. Years ago, it was a sleepy little collection of a few wineries. Not anymore. There are more now than ever before and they are so much bigger now. It’s hard to picture Ponte when it was just a little barn sized building…
Montreal & St. Joseph’s Oratory
September 10th marks a big day in our house. We were two crazy kids that decided to get married at 22. Everyone thought we were nuts to tackle this at such a young age. We were both still in college after all. We didn’t care, we happily ran down the aisle and have been running…
McCall RV Resort
If you’re traveling in Idaho, you need to plan on some time in the fun little town of McCall. McCall is a quaint lakeside town on the banks of Payette Lake located 100 miles north of Boise. It’s a scenic drive up Route 55 that borders the Payette River. Mining led to the boom of…
Exploring Catwalks in NM
No kids with us in Greer doesn’t mean we sit on the porch all day. No sir. We were going to get a little hike in, even if we had to drive to another state to do it. Cathie found what she thought could be a fun little hike and adventure on Pinterest. Her husband…
Cousin Eddie Camping
Arizona is not all desert and cactus. The high country, as it’s called, is full of cute little mountain towns with tall pine trees. One of our favorite cute little towns is Greer. Fun fact alert: at 8,356 feet of elevation, Greer is the highest elevation town in the state and fifth highest in the…
Lost in Jasper
We had big plans for our second and last day in South Fork. We stopped to buy t-shirts across the street from the campground and Mark chatted up an employee. She said the ride to Platoro was fun and a good place for lunch. After dinner the lackluster map was spread out on the table…
RZR Adventures in South Fork
The next stop on our week-long RZR trip was the teeny tiny town of South Fork, Colorado. When I say tiny, I mean tiny. There isn’t even a traffic signal in town. Our home base was Peacock Meadows RV Park on the edge of town. We wanted to try the trails around South Fork after…
Gulches, Lakes and Mines
Our last day in Silverton came way too soon for my liking. We were having a great time and there was so much more to explore, I didn’t want to leave. As we were getting things together for the day, Ray our fabulous camp host stopped by to find out where we were headed so…
