Riding, Riding, Riding and One Happy Puppy

Fort Stockton RV Park
Fort Stockton, TX
November 12, 2015

Today was day three (400+ miles each day) of our trek back to Tucson. We have 2 days (one long 400 miles and a short 160 miles) to go. It's been an uneventful haul...thank goodness! 

We had our very own welcoming committee when we pulled into the Jellystone RV Park in Robert, LA. Dover was very interested in the geese as they slowly waddled on. The sight or sound of Belle did not phase them one little bit.



There was a large grassy area across from our site covered with dead leaves.  Jack was one happy puppy!




We adopted Jack in July 2010 from the Humane Society. He is 71/2 years old as best we know. We always say "Jack is the life of the party."  He loves to have fun! And he is so dang cute!




Of course, there were two puppies not so happy...


Not to worry, they had a nice long walk later. 
Wednesday took us through Houston...yikes! Lots of highway construction going on. The buildings and skyscrapers are eye catchers. I love the reflections...especially the clouds and sky.







We both spotted an object zooming upwards at the same time...it swooped back down to do its job.




Last night was spent at Columbus RV Park in Columbus, TX. Early to bed and early to rise...we pulled onto the I-10 just as the sun was coming up.
My favorite part of today was traveling through Hill Country.


We are settled in tonight at Fort Stockton RV Park.



The puppies have played in the fenced in off-leash doggie park and Joe and I finished the lasagna I made to bring with us. Time to relax and get ready for another day. Until next time, let the good times roll...


 HAPPY TRAILS!

Slick Rock Country!

Portal RV Resort
Moab, UT
May 20, 2015

Oh, how I love travel days. Whether going to new places or familiar places, the excitement builds! This past Wednesday was a perfect day for good-times-rollin as it was a bit overcast, no winds to deal with and the scenes along the way were spectacular. Yes, we have traveled this route for two years in a row, but somehow it just didn't look the same. I love to take pictures as we are rollin down the road. Joe always comments how nice it is to see where we have been as he does a great job of keeping his eyes on the road. It's a good thing I don't drive! 





I love this stretch of road through Monument Valley.
We are a couple weeks later than last year...all the wildflowers are gone! Sorry Carol....













HAPPY TRAILS!

 We are all settled in at Portal RV Resort. We are happy! The Tan Clan is happy to have a nice green grassy doggie park to play in. The weather is perfect! And Pearl has already had a taste of some good ole Moab slick rock and a chance to play in the dirt! 


Up next...Poison Spider!
