Exhilarating!! Wow! Those pictures look grand. I work closely with a few geologists in the Oil and Gas sector. Quite fascinated about their experiences. Sometimes I wish that I had taken up geology as my subject while graduating.
You create BEAUTIFUL Blogs, girl! Wow, what a beautiful site! I finally had a few minutes to look at your site....and of course, what else did I expect except a beautiful amazing presentation! I wanna retire so I can do this too!! Hmmmm need to go buy a lottery ticket...or two...or 500000....love you!
got the video Thank you for including the video of the Bumpy Ride. We also have enjoyed the formations in the desert. Though we haven't been to Monument Valley, we have visited other state parks with similar wonders. Ron and Carol
Many years ago I don't recall any "places to sit and observe" many years ago when I was at some of those places, especially Old Faithful, but I wish I had seen some of those other hot springs too. Gorgeous!
How to view videos There aren't any uploaded so far. Trouble with the travel blog site. However, I will try either Facebook or Youtube and let everyone know if successful.
Beautiful and Awesome computer at home is so slow lately that photos wouldn't download. Got the words, but no pics. So am here at work where technology works a bit better and was able to catch up on Yellowstone! Ron is off work today and checking into why the home com is so slow.
How do I view your videos? I'm not very computer savvy with blogs and all but am enjoying the ride so far!
Enjoying the Pictures Thanks for the suggestion on the microphone. The HD Handicam was Richard's birthday present so he does most of the video while Kayla does the stills. Almost everything requires a tripod, which can be a bit of a pain, but the result (no jiggling or bobbing up and down) makes it worth the extra trouble.
Enjoying the pictures! Great photos! I agree with Karen. I'm jealous! Keep the photos coming. They're gorgeous. May I suggest on the video camera? Forget the on camera microphone if you haven't already done so. Buy a clip on lapel mic at Radio Shack (It comes with a lengthy cord). Have Richard do the narration while you film, or vice versa. You will get much better audio and meaningful narrative. Have fun. Love, Jim
You look like you are having the time of your life.....what adventures! So glad your red truck was not the source of the elk's full attention, as we want you back safely.
Thanks for keeping us posted!

PS No book yet!!!
Enjoy! Enjoy all the beauty God has made! You can take time to reflect on His greatness as you view His handiwork. He is a God of detail but nothing is insignificant. We look forward to traveling with you through your blogs. Thank you for including us! Ron and Carol
Can I spell J E A L O U S??? I am thrilled for you two and even though I don't wish to rush my own retirement.....it sure sounds good to lolly gag around and have no pressing agenda! I hope you two have an absolutely LOVELY trip, and NO 'issues'....haha....and certainly, I expect many many pictures.....but did I really need to mention that???
Love you both!
Karen (here in BALMY North Carolina)
Best Wishes! Hurray! You are nearly off on your own grand adventure. I look forward to following along on your blog as you did on mine - you may inspire our next vacation!
Wishing you well on your retirement Kayla! You will be missed but I look forward to touching base when you are in town.
Take care and happy travels!

4 Corners Ah the life of retirees! Just one holiday after another. I look forward to reading your blog and following the trip on the map. Certainly with a camper you can bring home lots of souvenirs, AKA rocks. Joyce
Our favourite things to do are mostly centered around being in the outdoors and enjoying natural areas, so we are more likely found seeking out the lesser known parts of areas we visit, and the least populated areas. In past years, we've been known to hike for days, hauling heavy packs into remote valleys and forests just to avoid the usual front country crowds and see wild animals truly in the wild. These days, when on the road, we can be found driving the lesser traveled highways and byways in North America. Or on safari in remote parts of Southern Africa.
