A dog, a cat, and their human chuck the mainstream and hit the road in a 30-year-old RV. Exploring America...one small town at a time.

Finally! Craig Montana! Spending some time in and learning about the little town in Montana where it all began. My pioneer ancestors settled the area that would be named for them over 130 years ago. So great to walk in their footsteps.

An awesome day of driving...and discovering! From Clark Canyon Reservoir, we'd find our way to Bannack...a super cool ghost town preserved by the state...to Wolf Creek...to our spot for the night in the Beartooth Wildlife Managment Area above the Holter Dam Recreation Area. Montana at it's very best...

A 200-mile drive would take us from Wyoming, up over the Grand Tetons, and into Idaho. We called it a night in a place called Spencer. Another evening of learning...this time about the Opal Capital of America...and...Fences.

An awesome drive from Elk Springs Colorado to Craig Colorado...back out through Maybell Colorado...into, and through the Gates of Ladore Mountains. The drive would lead us to Green River Wyoming...and some amazing boon docking at 7000 feet up...on the "Wild Horse Loop". ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Took a different route out of Colorado this time. Some pretty amazing views of the canyons of the Dinosaur National Monument and Harpers Corder Road.
