  1. some how i think i missed the pic from the olympic mountain... lol so, here it is. it was really cool to see this and be right there by it. still not sure what the track was. sorry about the window reflections in some of the pics. where are we heading next? can't tell you yet. but here are some great views we had on the road. okay--here we are! my most favorite place to visit. the flaming gorge in utah. if you ever go this way you must go here. it is beautiful and not over crowded. most people camp here at the rivers (gorges) edge. but we prefer the sites up abov
  2. what is the chair that you like to take camping. we prefer just plain old lawn chairs. they're lightweight and comfortable. we've tried others and always go back to these. i know some prefer hammocks but, lets see what you have and how much you like them...
  3. that would of been cool to take the kids to dtd. but, i don't like pics with santa. santa is never right. i prefer to have a tree or decorations in the backdrop. :) but, your pics turned out really nice. at least santa has an expression on his face. :)
  4. haha.... can't wait. the cool snow looks so refreshing. ahhhh..man it's hot up here!
  5. yup-i'm in. great tr so far. upgraded flight-very cool! congrats on the baby and can't wait to read--well see more pics! lol
  6. that's a really cool tunnel. someday we'll get up there. we made it half way on a trip we took-got to banff before turning back to head home. going to alaska wasn't the plan but, we had gone through yellowstone and glacier on the trip and thought-hey lets go north. lol glad you are enjoying the pics aaron and everyone else that's sticking around. we live in such a beautiful country and the national parks are so breath taking. i don't care much for bridges - since the minnesota collapse. most - i just want to get over them as fast as we can. but, i love how the architecture on the br
  7. yes, it was. i had to google map it. we had gone across 80 and that would be what we passed--bonneville. Thanks Dave! :) Lynn, i think taking pictures helped because i was looking into the camera instead of realizing what we were doing. :rofl3: the ones in san fran were the ones i was most worried about but, i did handle it quite well..
  8. Thanks to Jen and Chris. After writing out a tr insert I got kicked off the site. :banghead: But have no fear when I got back on there was a saved button--I clicked it and there was at least a part of my tr! :jumpforjoy So, thanks to them for having a save action that I didn't know about. :) Next-- we came across the salt flats. Dh said this is where a lot of speed records are broken. Kinda cool to see. We stopped at a Walmart in Park City, Utah. The people here were really nice and all were joking around with each other. We asked if we could stay and they said no pr
  9. Here's a photo of a little town on the way out of the yosemite area. just kinda cool looking. some views... at first i thought this was the coolest road name evah!!! but now that i think about it--i wouldn't want to live on this street. lol i tried to get a pic of another old vehicle. hard to do on the freeway. there's a koa behind this casino. the casino looked neat from the outside but, we didn't dare leave the pups in the camper here. to far away and nothing around. this was the koa in boomtown, nevada. nothing spectacular but a place to sleep..
  10. if you go there around labor day you will see the elk moving their herds. they also go out into the road and let the others get across. but, what was neat with them is that they go back around the herd to make sure they are all across. it is really neat to see and the bugling is so cool to fall asleep to. love the tr and very sorry about all your troubles. it happens to the best of us. glad you stuck it out and dealt with it as best you could. yellowstone is just one of the many national parks we are able to enjoy and everyone should take the time to visit them. great tr!
  11. love it! we have breakfast on the farm up here. each county has one at the beginning of summer. i love going and really think all kids should be taken to stuff like this. thanks for sharing.
  12. this sounds good and no sour cream in it! lol i will be trying this. :)
  13. sounds good but i don't do sour cream.
  14. thanks for the parade and food pics! we missed the parade and fireworks this year. we headed up north - a 3.5 hour drive normally--took us 21 hours. lol too tired to watch the fireworks and completely missed the parade. but i got to see the parade in your town. i want to know - how much candy did the kids get? :) thanks for sharing.
  15. sorry it's taking me so long. we did a lot on this trip. thanks for sticking with me on this adventure... Here's a couple pics from our site in yosemite. it was a nice area to camp. we've never stand in the valley before. this is for those adventurous folks. lol a rock just for those of us who want to say we went rock climbing in yosemite! :) these are pics of bridal veil falls. you can hike to it but, it was really busy so we opted not to. our rig by bridal veil falls. one of the really cool bridges down in the valley. another deer that want
  16. he will be an excellent dog for you. it's funny though, when i take in a dog someone doesn't want anymore i have to ask some questions. i'd like to know the real reason for giving the dog up and many times the owner won't say. it sucks--because it could be something easy to work with or maybe not. but, you have to just stop asking questions when they start to not talk much anymore. you can tell they are getting agitated with you. the one thing i don't want is them to just throw the dog to the side of the road-so to speak. Even if it's a humane society-it can harm the dogs social life
  17. what have we here! what could this butt be of? an elk? nope--it's a bear. a black bear and yes, i know it's brown. lol he was down in the valley about 1/4 mile from all the campgrounds. we could have watched him all night. have no fear-the rangers knew he was there. they kept driving around us to make sure things were okay. they have all the bears tagged and they have sensors on the outside perimeter of the public areas. they know when the bears are near and watch for them. i like the national parks on f/b and have learned that when they do have a nuiscance bear--they just sh
  18. thanks guys! our national parks are awesome. we buy a year pass and try to hit as many as we can in that year. We decided to take a walk over by yosemite falls. lots of people and a few dogs. but, we headed out around dinner or a little later and the crowds were leaving the area. yay for us! so here's a little wild life! a little hard to see the deer in the first pic but they're there.. our family photo at yosemite falls. unfortunately, i didn't have my tri-pod along so i had to put my camera on a rock. these two were hard to see and find in the camera.

  20. Yosemite here we are! gonna try to get this tr going again. i gotta tell ya--don't let anyone ever tell you--it's just a dog. for a lot of us they are family and do everything with us.. Duke died of meningitis and the autopsy never told them what caused it. he only showed one sign-being sore and within 6 days of that and 2 days of returning home--he passed away at 7.5 yrs. too young and no chance. enough of this--tr time! Here we are just going into yosemite. beautiful park-if you ever get out there stop in for a few days. we've been out here before and like all national parks - c
