baby’s first Big Western Circle Trip – Part Four

Posted on 2022-08-252022-08-28 by Elle L

Day Twelve After breakfast, we gathered our adventure stuff and headed to Blue Heart Kayaking. In a tandem kayak, we did 5miles of the Snake River including the Blue Heart Spring and a circle around Ritter Island (which is a state park). We were already booked, so the staffer didn’t need to sell us on…

Day Eight Craters of the Moon Every other vehicle we saw on the road was an RV setup. It was nuts. We are out in the middle of nowhere. Craters of the Moon is a unique place. Did you know that Idaho has a “smile” running through it? Most of Idaho is mountainous, but from…

Day Four Grand Tetons National Park We took the scenic road south through the majority of the Tetons. We took our time and made sure to take all the little side roads so we could see as much as possible from the Jeep and via short walks. It was a beautiful day with no smoke…

baby’s first Big Western Circle Trip – Part One

Posted on 2022-08-152022-08-22 by Elle L

[As always, travel posts are delayed for our safety.] Our first “big western circle trip” started in Denver and then went north and counter-clockwise through the Tetons, southwestern Idaho, northeastern Utah, and northern Colorado. Day One We left the condo early, but got off to a late start. E’s back was hurting (sore muscles), the…

The Great Flash Flood

Posted on 2022-08-122022-08-11 by Elle L

Meetup. We do love them, but they can be rough on organizers. Our recent Sunday one was no exception. It was to be Jazz at the Park (the last one of the season) at 5:30. Then, it was supposed to rain from 2pm until like the next day or something. So, Organizer M moved it…

RV project: trading the sofa for cabinets and a counter.

Posted on 2022-07-252022-08-18 by Elle L

The 2021 motorhome we bought in 2020 was designed to sleep 6-8 people. Of course, that’s assuming some of them are kids and assuming some of them don’t expect to actually sleep. We ordered the overhead queen bunk and found it to be a giant waste of money. The mattress is thin and terribly uncomfortable….

FREEzer?

Posted on 2022-07-172022-09-12 by Elle L

Inspired by some neighbors who own a dry cleaning appliance (what? who knew those existed?), we ordered a small-ish freezer. I (L) do some freezer cooking, especially as we prep for RV trips, and a decent amount of frozen food preservation (onions, celery, herbs, ginger, broth, beans, etc.) and we are constantly having to “Tetris”…

June Wine Trip – Palisade loop

Posted on 2022-07-072022-09-16 by Elle L

We belong to a camping group. Our NM trip was fabulous, so we were looking forward to this wine one in western Colorado. At the same time, we didn’t know anyone going, so we had plans that if they were not a good fit, we’d just wander off and do our own thing(s). Before official…

Fuck the USA

I’m listening to the boom booms (which are illegal here due to wildfires) while I weep for our freedom.
