Description
I own no land, instead I have wheelestate. I’ve been a full time RVer since 1997. Working summers as a Park Ranger takes me to many beautiful places and playing during the winter takes me to many more. This blog is simply the story of my life's adventures.

Tell me more about that dinner--how was the eggplant cooked? Fried? or some other way? We are going there next week so I need to know these things.
What a beautiful place to visit. I love tunnels. We just rode our bicycles through three tunnels two days ago and it was a blast. I'm glad you are enjoying Zion National Park.
What wonderful country Gaelyn, you really get to know your country from its most beautiful side.
tunning pics, info and territory again Gaelyn. I never get tired of seeing all these beautiful places. That checkerboard is fantastic.
The picture of the first tunnel took my breath away. I would have stopped there and gone no further. WOW!!
I do envy you being able to take so much time off to see these places. I am so glad you are sharing them with us. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing your Zion pic's they bring back my memories of visiting Zion nat'l park. It is a beautiful place.
Wow, Gaelyn, that was a wonderful post. Thanks for sharing. Your photos are amazing. I wish I could've seen you leading the way in the tunnel. I know and love quinua (it's spelt quinoa on the packet I bought in the UK) I did a post on it a month or two ago. It's very healthy and I, as a vegetarian, LOVE it. Is this a long weekend for you? A break? Enjoy!
Gaelyn, your photos are so magnificent. I feel like I was riding along with you...
Thanks for the wonderful journey.
What fantastic scenery, Gaelyn. Every shot a stunner!
Janice.
Wow, it sure is beautiful there! Thanks for taking us along on this trip Gaelyn!
What a stunningly beautiful landscape and some great piccies too. I would love to visit this area and I have tried and liked Quinoa!
Wow! Did these gorgeous shots bring back memories! We took a wonderful to Zion in our motor home and do I remember that tunnel!!!
Terrific post, Gaelyn!
Have a great week!
Sylvia
Terrific!
The places described by you every week are irresistible, I have to get there some day.
Gaelyn,
Wow, such beautiful scenery! I'll have to look it up on the map. Thanks for sharing!
I can't think that I have ever heard of Zion National Park before discovering your blog. It looks like a awesome park with buckets loads, no, tons of spectacular scenery. *taking out the list of places to see if I ever get to do a cross country trip accross the USA*
Those are some really great photos! Lots of detail in them.
Beautiful pictures! Too bad the shoulders on the road were not wider for pulling over. I love quinoa and cook it often. It is pricey for a grain (I buy it in a bulk store) but is very nutritious and cooks in less than 10 minutes
Great post (as usual), Gaelyn. All the different colors in such a stark background. Mother Nature is quite a painter! Your dinner sounded wonderful. I enjoyed the story about the tunnels and being in the lead!
Gaeylyn: Your views of your area always bring a smile to my heart. I love that conical formation.
The colors are amazing.
What fun stopping traffic!
'Ain't nature wonderful'.
I must get myself to Utah one of these days.
Friday I went to the Yakima River Canyon--very interesting area.

I really enjoyed these photos and post. I was looking forward to these and the images brought back some nice memories of my brothers climbing some of the rocks when i was a kid.
I especially like the wide-angle view with the cone-shaped knob - and the tunnels. I love old tunnels like these.
Hi Gaelyn,
Catching up with you after a busy family weekend. I really enjoyed your geological and pictorial tour of Zion. I liked the Canyon shot where you caught a camper midway down - gave a good perspective of the canyon's depth. I have eaten Quinua - I think it's the grain containing the most protein. I look forward to your Narrows photos.
Wonderful post. I enjoy your shots and narrative so much.
Wow, amazing. I drove through Utah once - unreal - quite a unique landscape. Beautiful photos.
You have the most enviable life--one I would have loved to have but I really am quite content with what I have.................(I think!!!)
Such beautiful country!
The views on that road in are amazing. But $15??? Wow that's a lot!
