Motorhomes do not have chandeliers!

Well ours does! Just takes a little packing when we're traveling.

To Moab 2025

Image
      The fall of 2025 saw our 2nd summer workamping at Priest Gulch draw to a close. The aspens and cottonwoods dazzled the landscape of the San Juans with brilliant shades of yellows, golds and orange in early October. The weather brought us almost a week of straight rain in the mountains. While other rivers in the San Juans overflowed their banks, the Dolores river, running through the campground, increased to the level of the normal spring snow melt.    The campground chased out all the campers the morning of October 11th, the other work kampers left PGC on Monday October 13th. Tuesday the 14th, we shared hugs and goodbyes with Rob & April Scott (owner/managers of the campground) and said goodbye to PGC. We are planning on returning the summer of 2026 if all goes well.       Our first destination was Grand Junction Colorado. We had no strict adherence to a timed schedule so we decided on a more leisurely scenic drive to Grand Junction....

Hello Texas! Oct 2025

Image
      With the red rocks of Moab in the rearview mirror (A), we drove through familiar territory as we headed back into Colorado: through Monticello (B); Cortez (C); Durango (D); and Pagosa Springs (E).  We selected Santa Rosa, New Mexico for our overnight stay (F).  Our first destination was Millsap, Texas, where my son Joshua, and his family moved last Fall. Our 2nd day took us from Santa Rosa (A); through Lubbock (B); Abilene (C); and finally Millsap. We bit off some heavy traveling as we spent 16 hours on the road over two days. That was not fun, so we agreed to limit future (daily) traveling to 4-5 hours max.                                                                                                     ...

Aravaipa Canyon (Galiuro Mts)

Image
  Our preference to backpack Aravaipa Canyon is via the east entrance which is 149 miles by car (3 hrs) or, 50 miles as-the-crow-flies.  Our adventure opens with the normal visit to Klondyke AZ...pop 12. We always drop in on the folks who run the small store and make a purchase. It's the kind of place where the dusty screen door slamming behind you wakes the storekeeper snoozing behind the counter. If you're ever needing to avoid the law, on the lam, or need a place to lay low for awhile.  Klondyke fits the bill.  Map to east trailhead. Reaching the east trailhead and Turkey Creek requires driving across the creek about a half dozen times. As we continue to head towards the canyon, we come into the tiny town of Aravaipa where we pass several homes, the Salazar family Church, and an open range 😏.  To gain an early start to backpack in the morning, our first planned night was to camp (in Thundra) at the trailhead in Turkey Creek, which when flowing, empties into ...
