Travel Dates: June 30-July 5, 2018 We made it out of Idaho! We had quite a few family adventures planned so it almost felt like we hadn’t started our “big” trip yet, but we enjoyed it along the way. We had reservations to meet family in Rocky Mountain National Park over the weekend which gave…
Visiting the Big Island to see an active volcano was high on everyone’s wish list for the time we spent in Hawaii last fall. Our original plan was to island hop between the Big Island and Maui over Thanksgiving, but after we got bogged down in the logistics, we decided to just focus on the…
