What Makes for an Amazing Road Trip?

Getting an early start...


Driving under beautiful skies...



Appreciating the little things-like petrified wood in the middle of what used to be a volcanic fall out and what is now barren desert.







Falling asleep to the sound of gentle rain and waking to a crisp but sunny morning.



Exploring ancient civilizations.



...and arriving at your next destination just in time for an evening hike.




Picking the sunrise hike less travelled

and experiencing a little desert solitaire with just our little family










and never taking ourselves too seriously...

Experiencing new things



becoming a pro at overcoming adversity
and finding hidden treasure



Campfires!



and WILDLIFE!!!


Realizing the earth below is a lot more unpredictable and volatile than the world above.

Always stop to smell/pick/(photograph naked babies in), the wildflowers.
