Our elaborate plans are needing to change again. Gotta be flexible! Looking ahead to 2019, we have some big events for Elizabeth and Lucas on the first week of May . . . right when we had planned to go to Great Basin, Capitol Reef, Bryce, and Zion. So we’re flip flopping with one of the other desert trips.
Well, unfortunately we had to cancel our weekend trip to Mt. Rainier National Park this past weekend. Sick kiddos : ( For the record, these were our plans:
Katie and I got to daydreaming about future trips and the idea came up that we should take the train for our trip to the Dakotas. I should probably be writing up our latest adventure to Crater Lake, Lassen, and the Redwoods (pictures are almost ready to be posted!) instead of planning a trip that is 8 years from now but I can’t help but check on the feasibility and outline the big picture!
Well, like everyone else in the US, the total solar eclipse captivated our attention Monday morning! We just got a partial eclipse in our neck of the woods (88%) but still, how awesome! We thankfully had glasses but even without, the show could be enjoyed via the crescent-shaped sun spots coming through the trees.
We have another big trip this year – this one is a road trip down the West Coast to see Crater Lake, Lassen Volcanic, and the Redwoods. Katie and I have been to Crater Lake before but this will be our first “official” visit. Neither of us have been to the other two – in fact, I have never even stepped foot in California! Here’s the plan . . .
Here it is . . . the master plan to see them all . . .
