We had plans to stay at a lake between Bryce Canyon & Cedar Breaks that fell through due to lack of Verizon signal, so with a couple of extra days before we needed to be back to Salt Lake for a photography workshop we decided to detour to Great Basin National Park. This had been…
Our planning during our stay in Eureka and our travel north was pretty bad. We had trouble getting reservations at the spot we wanted in Trinidad, and ended up spending two nights at Johnny’s Marina in Eureka. It was a good spot for errands, and the folks were nice. I wasn’t very bothered by it…
Its cliche. I know. Everyone says the one thing you have to do in New Orleans, LA is eat beignets. So we did and it was soooo worth it! When We Visited: November 2013 Ages of Kids: 8, 6, 3 Where We Stayed: New Orleans KOA New Orleans is not the most kid friendly city –…
We are back to monthly summaries!!

Generally if I wash sheets & towels and a weeks worth of clothes we spend around $17 at most. That’s probably every two weeks with a clothes wash in the middle. Maybe we are dirtier than we think we are? Do we smell? 🙂
