Camping in the Heat
The last couple weeks I’ve traveled from Texas to Florida. It probably wasn’t my smartest plan to travel to the south in the summer but it was definitely a learning experience. Florida is a beautiful state, so green and lush, with so much more wildlife than I ever expected. During my time here, I have seen monkeys, alligators,…
From Texas to Louisiana
I spent the last almost 3 weeks in Austin staying with my gracious friends in their beautiful air-conditioned home and it was glorious. Austin is a fun and adventurous city.

Our Second Month
Technically I’m a little early but we covered a lot of ground so to prevent this from being a 10 minute video, I cut a week off the month. This month we have 9 National parks, 3 states, a lot of animals, a dog too tired to stand and eat, and a gold medal beam routine. Enjoy!
Carlsbad Caverns
It was a difficult decision. Up to this point I have been to 16 national parks over the last nearly two months and I’ve been able to adjust to a canine copilot. Usually either by driving through and jumping out at viewpoints or when it’s cold enough, actually leaving him to sleep in the car….

Sunset
Welcome to New Mexico! Someone gave the job of cloud creation during sunsets to Steven Spielberg and only allowed him to use cotton candy as his medium. The sunset I witnessed today was a three phase masterpiece. The first phase is the initial sun going down, the beginning of the transformation. You begin to see…
