Travelogue: The Fiscal Round Up 29 Jul 2013 | 03:59 am
I originally said that we spent about $3000. I could say that with some authority because every time we got gas or ate or paid for a hotel, I made sure we wrote it down. Actually, Jeff did most of th...
Travelogue: Rocky Mountain National Park 29 Jul 2013 | 02:43 am
When it came to planning the Colorado leg of the trip, I had heard a lot about Rocky Mountain National Park, and really wanted to go, in spite of not really knowing much about it. It's a beautiful p...
Travelogue: Colorado 28 Jul 2013 | 05:50 am
We didn't have a lot planned for Colorado. Frankly, I stopped thinking after "Idaho." We had tickets for the Colorado Rockies game, and we'd already done Rocky Mountain National Park & the Stanley H...
Travelogue: Yellowstone 27 Jul 2013 | 06:20 pm
Is anyone getting burned out on hearing about our vacation? I'm getting a little burned out on talking about it, and I haven't even hit the rodeo, or Denver, or the rest of Colorado. I think I'm goi...
Travelogue: Craters of the Moon 25 Jul 2013 | 07:15 pm
I think this is the last of the Idaho posts. Tomorrow: Yellowstone! I've been to Craters of the Moon several times, and it was pretty high on the list of stops. It also had the virtue of being righ...
Travelogue: Before the Ranch 22 Jul 2013 | 08:35 pm
On our way between Stanley and the Diamond D, we made two stops. I'd never been to either place before, which is why this post doesn't get a "home again" title. The first place was the Yankee Fork Dr...
Travelogue: Home Again, Part 3 21 Jul 2013 | 06:10 pm
I've already talked about our trek over Loon Creek Summit. Staying at the Diamond D wasn't in our budget, which is why we decided to drive in and back out the same day. Maybe the stress of the road ...
Travelogue: Home Again, Part 2 21 Jul 2013 | 08:40 am
We headed north from Ketchum, and when we got to Galena Summit, I heaved a huge sigh of relief. Thank God THAT still looks right, I thought. Never mind that the overlook itself looked totally differe...
Travelogue: Home Again, Part 1 20 Jul 2013 | 04:21 am
I knew the Wood River Valley wouldn't look like I remembered it. I knew there would be stoplights and new businesses and even (sigh) a McDonald's. So when I didn't feel "at home." I wasn't really sur...
Travelogue: The Lowlight 16 Jul 2013 | 08:19 am
I'd like to say that the only downside to the trip was "we just didn't have enough time, but the rest of it was absolutely perfect." but that's not true. Everyone had a different highlight, but we all...
