A Weekend in Portland [Our Second Anniversary Trip]
For our second anniversary, we decided to make a weekend adventure to Portland! Now that we’ve moved, Portland is only about 3 hours away from our new home! We haven’t had a lot of opportunity to leave since we moved away from our favorite dog sitters— thank you Kelli & Ashley! But determined to get […]

Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend & Grand Canyon
After Day 1: Goblin Valley State Park & Natural Bridges National Monument, we woke up early enough to catch breakfast at the hotel, grabbed some coffee and gas, and hit the road towards Page, Arizona. When we were planning this trip, Kelli wanted to go south instead of north so we had less of a chance of […]

San Diego & Arizona – Thanksgiving Road Trip [Day 1 & 2]
For Thanksgiving, we decided to go out and visit Chase, Brighton’s older brother in San Diego. I’ve only been once, for Ragnar, and I was working the whole time so I didn’t explore very much. We had 3-4 days to spend exploring the city for Thanksgiving and my birthday! This is the first post in […]

Day 5: Denver, CO to Salt Lake City, UT
December 31, 2013 Today was the final day of our road trip (and of the year)! Our journey took us through the rest of Colorado, across Wyoming, and finally into Utah. Surprisingly, I drove for most of the day. I haven’t had a lot of experience driving in the mountains so it was a new […]

Day 2: Pensacola, FL to Tyler, TX
December 28, 2013 Today was our second day on the road. We hit 4 new states: Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas! In my opinion, Alabama and Mississippi look a lot like Florida– flat and marshy. Louisiana we had some change in terrain such as more elevation and different types of trees and less water. Total […]
