Flight 93 NM

We did manage to make it out the door for the last road trip of 2017.  Because we were driving past it I decided it was time to stop at Flight 93 National Monument.  I had avoided it previously but this year my kids did start asking about 9/11 and terrorism, the news cycle hasn't … Continue reading Flight 93 NM

Johnstown Flood NM

We decided to take a day trip up to Johnstown to see the flood Memorial.  I knew nothing about Johnstown other than there was a flood and it was near the oxbow bend of the railroad.  Imagine my intense lack of surprise when I found out that the flood was caused by the wealthy elite … Continue reading Johnstown Flood NM

First Ladies NM

Have you ever had weeks where your family won't stop fighting? Week after week the kids were arguing and we were grouchy.

White Sands NM 2016

I love White Sands. Full disclosure, I went to college very close to White Sands National Monument and it was a regular recreation activity for us when we had cars.  It is so hot and sunny, absolutely breathtaking in it's natural beauty and there is so much fun to be had on all that sand, … Continue reading White Sands NM 2016

Petroglyph NM 2016

Here's the thing about visiting National Parks, Monuments and Historic Sites in New Mexico.  There are a ton.  This one is literally 5 miles from my sister's house.  It's easy access and I used to hike there when I lived in Albuquerque. The easy access and my familiarity with it made me forget that New … Continue reading Petroglyph NM 2016

National Parks are an amazing resource for the preservation of our history, natural resources and reflect the wide cultural variances in our nation. All these opinions are my own and I have no affiliation with any park entity. Though I kind of want to be a Park Ranger when I grow up.
