Grand Canyon, Painted Desert & Petrified Forest National Parks
November 16 & 17 I know I keep saying this, but the USA is just massive! The distances between places are staggering—hundreds of km’s of nothing stretching further than the horizon. Watching it slip past the truck window, I'm grateful to be living in these times....
las vegas & hoover dam

Idaho, more than just potatoes
Leaving Yellowstone we retraced our route South before turning off towards Idaho Falls. We spent one night at the Snake River RV park for hot showers, laundry & fill up on fresh water. An interesting place, more like a permanent neighbourhood of RV's than people...
Yellowstone National Park
