Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
After our snow-enhanced visit to Yellowstone, we ventured 40 miles south to Grand Teton National Park, another favorite which we have now visited five times in nine years. We camped at Colter Bay Village (our first stay here), which is in the northern part of the national park, right on …
This was our sixth trip to Yellowstone in nine years! I guess we like it! For wildlife lovers like we are, Yellowstone never disappoints–and it’s got amazing scenery and thermal features as added bonuses. The drive from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone National Park was too far for us to …
We said goodbye to Jacky and Howard and left Kananaskis Country in Alberta to head south for the next phase of our Rockies Reboot. This was the part of our trip we had to abandon last year when we rerouted to Seattle. Waterton Lakes National Park in southern Alberta and …
We are saddened by all going on in our home city of L.A. right now, but in keeping with our ABOUT US section, we have no ads or politics in our blog–just our travels…So,…here we go. In June 2024 we had an amazing week at Jasper National Park in Alberta, …

The main reason we signed up for this scuba diving trip traveling 450 miles on a dive boat from Bali to Komodo was the chance to see Komodo dragons in the wild. The second reason was the opportunity to dive in a remote area of Indonesia with some of the …
