adventures with a dog and an airstream
This trip was a little weird. Wildfires altered our route: our initial trip plans included Oregon and California, but after experiencing the smoke in Montana, we rerouted. And Covid altered our behavior: no indoor eating or drinking, no museums, no...
Snow was coming! We went to Denver a day early so we could turn east for home ahead of the storm. This is our third time urban boondocking near our friends’ house in Denver (read about our 2016 visit here...
Arriving in Idaho Falls was a bit of a shock after a week in the Tetons. There are no mountains. But it’s a nice enough little city, with walkways with artistic benches following the river through downtown, backdropped by a...

The Airstream had been parked all summer after we got home from our Maine trip, alone and lonely (except for the collection of black widows hanging out around the chocks and levelers), until we wanted to take it to the...
