Goodbye to the Southwestern Desert, Hello Sedona, AZ!
As the spring heat closed in on the Arizona desert, it was time for me to move to higher elevations and cooler temperatures.

On my evening walk, I passed two children playing in a huge natural yard. I noticed how different it was from the perfectly manicured, postage-stamp size […]

I’m not quite sure where that free-spirited woman went when I had RV troubles AGAIN recently, but somewhere around day seven of […]

I first drove into Joseph from the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway and was spilled into a small town bustling with a pleasant mix of (mostly boomer-generation) tourists and old-time residents. The idyllic scenery is the […]
