Well. We bought an RV! I never thought in a million years I’d be excited about road-tripping in an RV and staying at campgrounds, but I can’t wait! Tyson enjoyed traveling this way as a kid and always tried to convince me to get an RV, and here we are…. Tyson finally gets to have his RV. We decided this was going to be the easiest way to get around with Dax [and Ozzie]. We can’t spend all of our days with Dax staying close to home, he’s gotta see some things!
If there’s a Heaven on Earth, it’s the Grand Canyon – and that’s where we’ll spend Mother’s Day and begin our adventure.
Here’s a sneak-peek at our map.
Our stops!
- Grand Canyon National Park
- Zion National Park
- Sand Hollow State Park
- Arches National Park
- Bonneville Salt Flats
- Grand Teton National Park
- Yellowstone National Park – Grand Prismatic Spring/Old Faithful/Yellowstone Lake
- Mount Rushmore National Memorial
- Then we’ll stop at Dax’s grandparent’s house in Michigan City on our way back home. We’ll be able to show Dax where I grew up, where we had our first date, and where we got married. We’ll even get his toes in Lake Michigan. Dax has so many people that are waiting to meet him – including two GREAT grandmas. And I know you’re all wondering about Ozzie; he always looks forward to going to Indiana! He gets lots of table food from his grandpa and gets to sleep in a human bed! He’ll need extra spoiling after all of the miles he’s going to put on his paws!
If there’s any takeaway from this post, it’s to get out and live. Go on that vacation. Life’s too short, what are you waiting for?
