Hiking the Incline at Manitou Springs CO is not an easy feat. Trust me, I speak from experience. Last week (Friday 8/10/19) I ascended this beast with my son-in-law Jake. Going into it I knew I had it in the bag. Just another long flight of stairs in my opinion. Somewhere between 100 to 150 steps up I was already humbled. This was not going to be an easy climb nor was it just another flight of stairs! History Of…

Welcome To Grafton Ghost Town! Just 8 miles from the south entrance of Zion National Park lies a small village whose last inhabitant left in 1945. Rich in history and the scene of six motion pictures this destination is a must see if you’re visiting the area. Grafton was first colonized by a group of ten families as part of the Cotton Mission spearheaded by Brigham Young. Destroyed by floods and abandoned several times during the Indian Troubles, Grafton still…

We were such newbies back then. Now we’re older and wiser (mostly…

We took a huge risk leaving everything all behind to be able to enjoy a life of travel. Did our first year as full time RV…

After we accepted the position, I was obsessed with watching Youtube videos and reading all I could about what we needed to be prepared. Joe always says when the Zombie Apocalypse comes, I will be more than ready. I spent months researching and making lists of what we would need, but…
