Arizona trip plans

It was a really long drive. We got a late start Thursday and drove through storms so we didn't get as far as we planned. I couldn't drive any farther so we pulled off in Stuart, Iowa. All the hotels were full. I couldn't drive any more so we spent the night in the car in the McDonald's parking lot. I woke up at 6 and we headed out. The drive through Nebraska was so boring we thought it would never end, but it was a beautiful drive up the mountain through Roosevelt National Forest to Estes Park, Colorado, where our campground is. We're feeling much better now after getting cleaned up. After we ...

31 day Road Trip West 2008

31 day trip

Today is my final planning/prep day for my trip. Means putting stuff in storage and buying supplies, food etc and maybe taking my motorcycle for a ride since it will be lonely all summer long. Today i left Denver at 6:30, having showered (important) and ariving at Hanging Lake about noon. It is Exit 121 off I-70 and a decent 1 mile hike up to a lake and waterfalls. Worth every step. There is an upper fall and three lower ones in a lush green/blue clear lake which runs down the side of the mountain eventually ending up into a creek. The upper waterfall is about 100 ft high and you can walk arou...

Summer 08

152 day trip

Hello, That's the great departure day... Luggages ready, camera ready to shoot, and excitation as the highest... We have our flight scheduled at 7pm at Newark Airport (NJ) to go to San Francisco Airport (CA). It will be a long day before we reach our hotel in Fisherman's Wharf. We may be a little surprised by the temperature there (15°C...). Midnight, arrival at the hotel in a chilled and cloudy night (13°C)... But everything is going as scheduled... Vacations can start!!! The Toyota Camry that we are renting has 9177 miles... It should have 12500ish in 2 weeks :). Now we will sleep as it is 3...

18 day South Western National parks trip - May - Jun 2008

18 day trip

Our first day on the road took <B>us</B> north on highway 395 along the eastern Sierra Mountains. That roadway, I think, is one of California's most beautiful highways. The Sierra Nevada Mountain Range rises straight up alongside the west side of the road with many of the highest peaks in the range visible along the way. As we made our way, we stopped at the Lone Pine Visitor Center for a bathroom break and to stretch our legs. There we browsed the bookstore and took in spectacular views of Lone Pine Mountain and the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. After heading back on the road, just a few minutes nor...

Los Angeles to Mt Rushmore and Places Between

14 day trip

Our trip route on Google Maps. I'll admit it - I'm a maximizer. Why else would I build an entire family roadtrip to the Southwest in late spring based solely on the fact that National Car Rental had a great one-way rate for just about any sized vehicle from Phoenix to Denver. I scored a mid-sized SUV, and all the plans fell into place from there. Of course, that meant two one-way flights (usually more expensive) for the four of <B>us</B>, and oh yes, to fit in a trip of any real length, we'd have to leave on Bryson's last day of school and be home just 7 days later so that Bryson and I could immediat...
