We are so glad the Narrows hike opened up while we were here at Zion National Park. We were watching the flow rate closely, and we jumped at the opportunity to hike it the first day it opened. This hike has been on my bucket list for years, and it did not disappoint. It was incredibly fun to hike in water and look up at the towering canyon walls!
Also featured is Kayenta Trail to the Upper Emerald Pool!

📸 Snapshots from Red Reef Trail in Hurricane, Utah
The best thing about the rv park we're at now is its proximity to these trails across the road. As soon as we bring the dogs over to this serene landscape, I feel like I can breathe easy again. I love the contrast between the red cliffs, green vegetation, and white Brodo. The views make a great backdrop for photographing my main muse, and bestest boy.

Brodo knows what's up. This dog-friendly trail is just across the road from our KOA campsite in Hurricane, Utah. Our dogs can't come with us to many national park trails, so it's really convenient to be able to take them on dog-friendly hikes close to our camp during the week. The desert mountains and wildflowers are so colorful and vibrant!

I love seeing Brodo's excitement on the trail. His energy is contagious! My company did a walking challenge where we tracked our steps, and I was tempted to put a fitbit on him. He runs laps around us, he swims in every body of water, he scrambles on rocks and climbs trees, and he loves every second of our hikes. He's definitely addicted.

This good boi swears by cold plunges in mountain lakes!

Find you a partner who looks at you like Brodo looks at these bubbles.... maybe hold the chomping and salivating.

Scary/awesome bear encounter while biking in Glacier National Park!
These animals DGAF! After 20 minutes of watching the bear graze, we tried to scare it away with loud noises so we could pass, but he was unphased.

✨️ What a magical moment ✨️
This deer looked like she had seen some sh*t.
She looked pretty old and beat down and did not care about us being there at all.
I'm glad she decided to come have lunch with us. ☺️

Have you ever taken a video so aesthetic you gotta make it your lock screen background?
This is stock footage quality!
Apple? Samsung? Hit me up 📞

Is there a word for this feeling—when you feel like the main character in a movie with a great soundtrack?
Cinematic? Exhilarating? Serendipitous?
I think those are the closest adjectives I have to describe this moment, when music and nature combined perfectly to entertain us.
At the time, all I could think of was "niceeee". Haha

A little rain never hurt anybody! We live in our RV full-time and we work remotely during the week, so weekends are our only time to really explore. So there's no rescheduling for a little rain.
The rain added to the fun at Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park.

We spend so much time together living full-time in an rv, so it's a good thing we like each other. I feel lucky to have a husband who is always up for an adventure and is adaptable and cool under pressure. I think these are the best qualities for a travel partner!
What do you think are the best qualities of a travel partner?

We experienced a fun mix of all things San Francisco last week!
We drove past self-driving cars, squeezed our giant truck into a small parking garage, and visited friends in Chinatown. We had the absolute best Chinese food we've ever had, toured many eclectic shops, and even visited a place where they make fortune cookies from scratch.
We visited friends again at their house across the Golden Gate Bridge and enjoyed seafood by the bay.
We stayed at San Francisco RV Resort RIGHT on the ocean and enjoyed walking the dogs there and running on the beach. We even had a front row seat to paragliders flying over the park!
I also attended my first GDC, game developers conference, and gave a talk. It was an amazing opportunity. So, while I spent a lot of time in customer meetings and preparing for my talk, I'm happy Robert and I were able to make time to enjoy the city.

What happened to "All Aboard!" 😂
We get to the dock, there's a crowd of people waiting near a closed gate. We wrongly assume they are also waiting to be let on the boat and start snapping videos on the beach. Then I happened to capture the moment we realized our mistake. lol
We can laugh about it now, but we were literally face palming last week.

Chupacabra! Oh wait, that's a baby moose. I love wildlife encounters, but I much prefer when they aren't on the road. What a close call!

Our bodies are pretty sore from shoveling snow, but it's also been a pretty magical experience. It's totally worth it.
This week, we added a few things to our amazon cart:
A heated hose - so we can leave our water hooked up without fear of it freezing.
A snow shovel - make that 2!
A big rig rake - so we don't have to climb on the icy rv roof to clear snow.
What has made rv camping in snow easier for you? Heated blanket? Heater? Flame thrower?

We are being careful, Mom! The self-preserving voice in our heads is making sure of it.
The rv roof shuffle around ice is certainly anxiety inducing.
Rv veterans, please comment your best winter rv tips!
