Hiking and exploring Volcano Capulin in New Mexico and I’m trying to get back on track with fitness–10K steps by sundown… stopping a few other places on my road trip to Florida.
My introvert nature was on full alert in Page, Arizona. I avoided crowds and skipped Horseshoe Bend, but I did hike Hanging Garden Trail and a couple other incredible places. Tackling the fear of the unknown… with every new adventure. I loved camping and exploring this BEAUTIFUL part of the United States.
I’ve wanted to see the Grand Canyon my whole life. I decided to book the historic hotel for this amazing trip. Thankful. I did some hiking, exploring, a mule ride, and I had great meals while staying at El Tovar. Grand Canyon was an unforgettable stop, and I will be back… Next time, camping IN the canyon!
I’m still lingering in my Sedona experience and trying to sort things out… I’m getting close! 😉
What pulled me into Sedona? I spent a few days in Sedona, and I hope I’m never the same. I did some body work, breath work, hiking, and talking with a group of wonderful people who wanted to help me. I was ready for this adventure without realizing it. SO INCREDIBLY THANKFUL!
As I head West through Arizona, I’m making life changes. I hike through Petrified Forest National Park and work on my 10K steps, drive through the Wigwam Motel, stand on the corner in Winslow, Arizona, and check out the Meteor Crater all before I make my way to Sedona for a few days of car camping, hiking, and getting some help with sleep.
I’m in Kansas! Exploring and hiking in the fog. I visited Mushroom Rock State Park, Castle Rock Badlands, Monument Rocks, and Little Jerusalem State Park. Beautiful and eerie hikes! I found a somewhat secluded spot off the highway for a night of quiet, stealth camping. I buggered up my back, ran low on food and gas, but we (me and my van) powered through. I love my van!
Low-key road trip with an early morning hike, some unexpected stops and “world’s largest” everything! Feeling introverted… Some days… Life on the road… 😊 Worth it! 100%

My travel vlog starts with a truck stop shower, and then I’m on the road, traveling in my van headed to Canada. I make my way to Niagra Falls to explore this beautiful state park and work on my 10000 steps. I decide to go back into Canada for the second time in one day! Niagra Falls is so big and beautiful that I spend the entire day taking it all in. I get back on the road and try to find a place to sleep for the night before dark… a big fail. 😉
