Last Fall Keith was taking a new job and decided to take a week off between jobs for a short trip, actually I convinced him to take this time off!! There are several locations just northwest of us that we had been wanting to check out. We thought driving the Transcontinental Railroad and the Pony Express Route would be the …
On July 30, 2016 we left Indiana for Utah. We had been planning the move for over a year and Keith had been dreaming of living in Utah ever since I can remember, more than 10 years! It was something he thought about often and we even joked about it regularly, but I doubt most of our family and friends …
My mom, sister and niece flew in to Salt Lake City, Utah to visit us and see the area. We had already done so much in the two days they were in town and now we had two more days packed with sightseeing and spending quality time together. Check out the previous post here – My Sister Visits Us in …
I was beyond excited when my sister, Jill, booked her trip to Salt Lake City, Utah! Not only would I see my sister, but also my nearly 1 year old niece, Adalyn. Plus, they were bringing my mom, Marilyn, with them! It was a little difficult working around Jill’s schedule, my mom’s schedule and Keith’s recent ACL surgery… but we …
Keith and I finally made the scenic drive around Utah Lake and it was everything we thought it would be… plus so much more! We packed up the jeep with Lexi and some snacks in search of some great views. It was fun to explore a new area so close to home. Keith and I moved to Utah Valley in …
Moab is one of our very favorite places we’ve found since moving to Utah. It’s not too far from us at just a little over 3 hours drive and we visit for the abundance in iconic destinations as well as outdoor activities. It’s a great place for us to take visitors and we always find adventure in Moab. Last week …
Since moving to Utah, not quite three years ago, Keith and I have been to Moab several times. It’s been a few months since our last visit, the longest we’ve gone not visiting or at least passing through and it’s a place I always look forward to going. When we have visitors in town, we always plan a trip …
Keith and I kicked off the 2018 – 2019 ski season by skiing Snowbird on opening day, Saturday, November 24, 2018. A winter storm encircled the Cottonwood Canyons dumping fresh powder throughout the morning until the early afternoon. We took full advantage of this storm to get our ski legs working again. This epic day really set the tone for …
Snakes are my worst fear…. Ok, snakes probably aren’t my WORST fear, but they rank right up there with things I won’t mention for fear that it will happen! I’m knocking on wood for all the things that just came to mind. One of the top contenders for reasons why I don’t like to hike, backpack, canyoneer, etc. is snakes. …
As part of our Snowbird season passes, we get Wasatch Benefits. When you buy a season pass from one of the follow resorts; Alta, Deer Valley, Snowbird or Solitude; you get two complementary day tickets to the other three resorts. Keith and I had already used one pass for Deer Valley, Solitude and Alta so I had my remaining day …
