We decided not to venture out in Albuquerque since we were there only the one night and the weather was not cooperating. We headed out pretty early in the rain from Albuquerque to tackle the drive to Carlsbad, NM. After 4 1/2 months of rainless beautiful days, the precipitation has finally caught up with us. …
Leg 39 is a stop over leg on our trip so we will only spend the night before continuing on the Carlsbad, NM. The balloon fest is apparently this weekend so the park is full. Reserved a premium site last October at the KOA and when we arrived, they were all full. Did get a …
Leg 38 started off with a big of a rain storm as we headed to Gallup, NM with a quick side venture to the Petrified Forest our 15th National Park visit. After a quick lunch in Holbrook, AZ we turned off I40 and took 180 to the South end of the park. It took us …

Been a good great couple of days in Bryce Canyon thus far. Got my lazy but out on a few days and was able to get a handful of sunrise shots of Bryce which can be viewed in the gallery. Saturday night I attempted to catch the Milky Way after a sunset and after waiting …
After a great couple of days visiting Capitol Reef NP, our 34th leg takes us to park #4 on the Utah 5 list- Bryce Canyon NP. After a slight detour thanks to Apple navigation, we arrived at Ruby’s Inn RV Park and Campground. To my surprise the temperature here is back in the 70s for …
