The Traveling Kind

If you're looking for me after February 18th, you can find me belly up at the $5 blackjack tables downtown! 😆 Yep! That's right, we're headed back out west for my next assignment at Sunrise Children's Hospital in Las Vegas. Then, booking it back outta there before the heat settles in. We've LOVED getting to spend so much time with our family and friends. Some we haven't spend considerable time with in  a couple years. Leaving Texas always comes with sadness but we're so excited for our next adventure. Since we've been to Las Vegas before we're going to do our best to get out and do things we didn't get to do before. Things on the must-see list of Vegas 2.0 include Seven Magic Mountains, Lake Mead Recreational Area, Hoover Dam (I know, how did we miss this the first time?!), Valley of Fire State Park, Death Valley, maaaaayybe Zion National Park, and taking advantage of all the BLM lands! I hope 3 months is long enough to fit all this in! I'...

Well, I guess we've been having so much fun in San Diego the blog has fallen to the wayside. Actually, I know we've been having fun because for the first three months we were here we had friends and family visiting us every other week! That sure makes time go by fast and doesn't allow too much time for tipee-typing on the ol' keyboard. We've done a billion and a half things! It's going to be hard to only give the Reader's Digest version. San Diego is one of our favorite cities. I sat on the beach and cried my eyes out the morning we left the last time. The weather is always perfect. Even during dreary 'May gray' and 'June gloom' the temps are still superb even if the sun's not shining. There are more than 150 breweries in the San Diego area, not including all the wineries and distilleries. They even make high ABV kombucha here! Ha! I'm gonna have to get my hands on that before we leave. Don't even get me started on the food. The...

Y'all. Arizona has exceeded all of our expectations. We have found a [winter] desert oasis and we're so sad to leave! But also, it got up to 98 degrees last week sans Nick Lachey and it was NOT CUTE. Cue frantic packing and purging. Just kidding, we don't purge anymore. We just keep everything and I'm pretty sure our RV is leaning. Like, While -You - Were - Sleeping - Joe - Junior style. If you don't get the reference do yourself a favor and just watch it. It's Sandra Bullock's best work and you're not living your best life if you haven't seen it. Also, it's streaming, so no excuses. We've been squeezing out every last little bit that the Phoenix area has to offer. Except Tombstone and Saguaro National Park-we missed those-regretfully so. I'm sure we'll be back to visit [in the wintertime] sometime soon. Sand Storm in Phoenix! You can usually see blue skies and mountains behind the cityscape. Dinner views in Sedona C...

Changes! I love changes! I love cutting my hair, moving somewhere new every 3 months (-ish), reorganizing, purging, trying new places to eat, and all that jazz. I just love it. This blog has had a few different looks over the past few years but now I feel like it's time for another revamp! You'll have noticed the name change. Ryan and I have talked about creating an Instagram account for a few months now and have finally made it happen! We wanted to get more involved in an RV community that we could "travel with" and I think we've found it online. We've already gotten tons of location ideas from them and are looking forward to all the new adventures! This blog will kind of be linked to the Instagram. You might see Ryan on here from time to time - that's the only real change to any of the posts. Ha. "The Traveling Kind" is a song by Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell and it really resonated with us. I'm 99% sure Ryan cried the first time we...
