Exploring Williams, Az – Day One

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

We decided that we needed to take a little break from our normal routine, so a camping trip was planned. We needed to head away from our immediate area as it was just too hot to be camping here – especially dry camping which is our norm for our area. Originally, we were just going to head out for the Memorial Day long weekend, but we were unable to get into a campground. Our plans changed… Since D had a new-to-him dual sport KTM, he wanted to be able to test it out. We decided that we’d head up to…

Adventures in Puppyland: 1st Camping Trip

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Our Bear loved camping from the first time that we took him out. He just loved being outdoors. As he got older, he preferred camping in the trailer over tent camping which is completely understandable. I mean sleeping on a bed is much easier on an older body than sleeping on the hard ground. As we said goodbye to our beloved pet in December, we also felt the grief of not being able to take him out camping one last time. When we rescued Wiley and then adopted Wyatt, we were hoping that they too would embrace our adventurous spirit. This past…

A Sunday Drive

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #101 On Sunday afternoon, we decided to go out for a nice drive. Our first destination plan was Martinez Lake as we had never headed over there. Upon arrival, we decided that we would just keep on going to the Imperial National Wildlife Refuge instead. We were a little disappointed that the visitor center wasn’t open. (Apparently, it’s closed on the weekends after March 31st.) The disappointment didn’t last long as we found a beautiful picnic area right by the water. The breeze coming off the water mixed with the warm air to create a pleasant environment…

The Great Shark Rescue

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #076 Last week, every day seemed to hold a new adventure. Yes, we enjoyed walking the beaches and collecting various shells, but we also enjoyed being able to see rays, fish, and other sea creatures in the water. A couple of mornings, we found sand dollars on the beach. All of these things were fun, but our biggest adventure began with a simple walk on the beach…. Munchkin let out a squeal when she saw something on the beach. She went running over and discovered that a shark had been beached when the tide went out. At…

Zion: Temple of Sinawava

Posted in Family, and Outdoor Adventures

The Temple of Sinawava is the last shuttle stop in Zion. It is here that you can take a mile long hike to the beginning of the Narrows, a tall slot canyon. While we did make the hike back to the beginning of The Narrows, we had to stop instead of trekking forward as we desired. Soon, you will see why we needed to stop. The trail to The Narrows is set up so you could take a wheelchair down it. It wouldn’t be easy, in my opinion, but it would be possible. The Virgin River passes by you on…
