The drive from Buffalo to Lake George in the Adirondacks was the beginning of several fall days of glorious leaf peeping. The rolling hills of New York were covered in reds, yellows, oranges and made the trek simply beautiful. We landed in Lake George to see the Adirondacks, but also to check out the hometown…

Loved loved loved Toronto….drove up for a one night stay at the Westin Harbor which was in a perfect place downtown for walking. We had a great lunch at the local Amsterdam brewery and then walked to the Distillery District and through Old Town. We loved the diversity of people, languages, cuisine, art and general…

After another amazing wedding in Des Moines, ZsaZsa continued her journey east heading to Buffalo, New York and Niagara Falls. We spent the first night in a Cracker Barrel parking lot in Elkhart, IN (do not recommend…neither the lot nor the breakfast) but lesson learned. The next night was in a cute lake town called…

In our quest to get three more USA stickers for ZsaZsa, we drove through Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri and landed in Kansas City, MO for a few days. Or at least we thought we did. With a closer look at the map, our trek from Lincoln NE somehow entirely missed Kansas, so we spent some…

After a few weeks of serious wedding prep and checking in with good friends back in SLC, we had a remarkable wedding weekend in Solitude and are now back on the road again. Cue Willie…. I’m not going to write a lot about the wedding, but suffice it to say, it was magical, full of…

Given the Loveland lockdown, we stayed north in CO and headed back to SLC through Steamboat so we could hang with Scraffords a bit. We had yet another incident about 20 miles out of town, when our bike rack decided to give up the ghost. Thank goodness someone flagged us down and let us know…

We made it safely to Estes Park, beautiful drive along the Big Thompson River, and checked into Spruce Lake RV park….it is a great little park very close to one of the RMNP entrances. After the stressful week, we hit up Bird and Jim a fabulous restaurant for an amazing burger and tuna poke bowl.…

a very expensive oil change. We hit the road in Custer heading to Loveland CO and onto Rocky Mountain National Park. Long day but we were making the most of the town by stopping at Costco to buy booze for the wedding, getting an oil change and tire rotation at Les Schwab and then heading…

The quote above is from the “The Rest Is History” podcast which is hosted by Dominic Sandbrook and Tom Holland, two British authors and historians, who are hysterical. We decided as we were driving to Custer that we should bone up on our American history and be reminded of the story of Little Big Horn,…

What a weekend in Osage Iowa! We had such a wonderful time connecting with extended family again to celebrate Mitch and Sarah’s wedding. Mitch is the second Huftalin cousin to get married and will be followed rapidly by Max in September and Ben in October! Suffice it to say, we will be in great dancing…
