About a month ago, Keya and I hopped into my Jeep and headed down to Buckskin Gulch. Buckskin Gulch is the longest slot canyon in the USA and runs into the Paria river.

The UFO Watchtower and the Great Sand Dunes
Keya and I headed south to check out the Great Sand Dunes National Park a couple weeks ago. On the way, Keya asked if I had been to the “alien place” near the dunes. There is no better way to peak my interest than by mentioning aliens. While I was driving, she loaded up the website… Continue reading The UFO Watchtower and the Great Sand Dunes
The Maze
Last weekend, Keya and I went on a bit of an expedition down into the Maze District in the Canyonlands. It was unbelievable.

They both took a look at… Continue reading Home sweet boat in Amsterdam

I ended up stopping and camping near the Oregon dunes. It was a bit rainy so I opted for… Continue reading Down the west coast – part 2

I tried to stay as close to the coast as possible from Canon Beach all the way… Continue reading Down the west coast – part one
