Summer Adventures Begin!

It sure has been a long time since my last posting! But summertime breezes are blowing through for this teacher and summer vacation is upon us! We have some great changes since our last adventure too. Chris has retired! Now we can travel the WHOLE summer- whoo hoo! He put in 26 years in law enforcement and now it's his turn to enjoy some time off! Laser, the police K-9, also got to retire! He lives with us and thinks he's living the good life now :-)

So off we go tomorrow to try to beat the Memorial Day crowds for our first leg of our trip. We will be heading North out of Arizona to beat the heat. We have a general itinerary that includes Red Canyon, near Bryce, in Utah. Then up to the Grand Tetons for a week or two. Followed by a meandering through Yellowstone National Park. Up to Teddy Roosevelt National Park's northern unit and up into Northwestern Ontario at Lake of the Woods to visit family. On the way back to Arizona we will most likely make a stop in the Black Hills of South Dakota because we love it there!

So no pictures today...but stay tuned! The adventure begins!
