A trip to Park City is a trip to adventure. Or not, if that’s how you roll. Like most mountain towns in the west, Park City sprung up as a mining town in the late 1800’s. As you walk along the main streets of town, take a look at the buildings because many have a…

Chatting with FMCA
Good morning and Happy Monday! I recently had the pleasure of talking with the FMCA President, Jon Walker. We talked about our mutual sense of adventure, water skiing and love of travel. This morning he shared it on the FMCA Instagram account! OMG! So exciting! Meet “The X-Games”
Stunning Sedona
There is something magical about this place and I’m not talking about the whole vortex thing. I’m talking about the raw beauty of Sedona. No matter what way you drive in, there is beauty and majesty at every turn. Our first trip was in October, 1998. Our school district runs a modified calendar and there…
Take Me To Lake Powell
Lake Powell is one of the prettiest places in the country, hands down. The giant red rocks are sandwiched between the crystal blue waters and bright blue skies. In the summer you can watch the bright white clouds billow and merge together for spectacular summer storms. It is one of our favorite places. Our first…
Sunset Vista RV Park
Cool breeze, check. Ocean view, check. Hearing the waves crash, double-check. Growing up in Southern California, Orange County specifically, I was lucky to spend many days at the beach. My dad and I spent many Sunday afternoons at Newport Beach after church. My Aunt Nancy lived on Balboa Island when I was little and I…
Honey Butter Potatoes
I love sweet potatoes. Yes, I mean love. Not as much as chocolate but close. They are my “chocolate” vegetable. I eat them baked and plain. I don’t even put butter or brown sugar or melted marshmallows on them, just plain. I like them in a casserole, candied like Aunt Loretta does them, mashed and…
Return to Beautiful Bryce Canyon
Bryce Canyon is a place I can got back to over and over again and enjoy it just as much as the first time. Our last trip there was just this summer. We’d spent several days riding the RZR on the Paiute Trail and finished the trip with a few days at Bryce. If you…
Photogenic Bryce Canyon
Think back to the first time you encountered the beauty of our National Parks. Looking down Yosemite Valley, standing next to the waterfall at Niagara Falls, the raw beauty of both rims of the Grand Canyon. The landscape of our great country is so grand and varied. Then there is the completely different beauty of…
McCall 2015
Oh McCall, how I’ve missed you. 2015 was turning out to be a rough one and I looked forward to our week-long trip like a small child looks forward to Christmas morning. Mark’s dad had not been well and passed away in May. I found a lump in my neck in February that turned out…
McCall 2007
Picking up from the last blog… We couldn’t wait to get back to this place and this campground. We were back the very next summer for a week including Independence Day. Mark’s mom and stepdad joined us along with his brother and family and our dear friends Bill & Deb with their younger two kids….
