We’re in the middle of the highway to grab this one. Not our favorite place to be, but it worked. We picked … Continue reading “State 11 – Ohio”

Corvin looks like he’s coming … Continue reading “Unicycles at the Pump Track – 5/4/2019”

The church was packed with family and we barely got a seat in the balcony. There are not any photos in church, cause that isn’t my style.

You may not have realized this, but if you’ve seen a current Utah license plate, a likeness of Delicate Arch is depicted on the license plate. After some careful planning and reviewing the elevation on Google Earth, we found a reasonable stretch to … Continue reading “State 7 – Utah”
