26 January 2021 Get this: we left Fort Laramie and headed to our next destination, but got caught in a small snow storm. When we spoke with the locals, they said it had came out of no where.

Black Hills National Forrest
25 January 2021 We traveled to South Dakota in the Summer for Emily’s birthday. The central area we explored was not overly pretty, nor were the people exceptionally friendly. However, this Winter visit was much prettier; the people- no real change. We traveled North until we arrived in South Dakota. Fort Laramie to the BlackContinue reading “Black Hills National Forrest”
Fort Laramie in Wyoming
24 January 2021 We love history! History we both enjoy is American war history. Only about 1.5 hours from where we stayed in Cheyenne was a Fort. With our love of American war history, why wouldn’t we go? Emily was entertaining as every 20-30 minutes with enthusiasm would say, “Mountains!” We live in Kansas: weContinue reading “Fort Laramie in Wyoming”
City Brew Coffee- Rocky Mountain Region
22 January 2021 We have learned that sometimes, you have to eat/drink at the chain places. It’s sad, but major branded coffee houses have driven the mom & pop places out of business. When we travel, we almost always need an extra jolt of caffeine to keep going another 100 or 300 miles down theContinue reading “City Brew Coffee- Rocky Mountain Region”

Flashback Date
29 December 2019 Columbus Zoo in Ohio When visiting Ohio last year, we were able to do many fun activities. A thing on Emily’s childhood bucket list was to visit the Columbus Zoo.
