Long and Winding Roads
This post covers two day trips from Vegas into the red rocks. One was near and one was far, but both were absolutely fantastic! Buckle up!
Spillways and Slot Machines
Visits to Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, people-watching and drinks on the strip, and a little “Mystère” made this Las Vegas stop great fun!
Red Rocks to Sin City
In this post we left Sedona for six more nights back in Peoria, then on to Las Vegas. And you know us – we always take the scenic route!
Valley of the Sun to Red Rock Country
Peoria means family, friends, and day trips near (and sometimes far). Sedona is all about the red rocks, and Oak Creek and Red Rock Canyons.
Oil Fields to Radiant Skies
With 3 overnights from TX to AZ, we stopped in Carlsbad, Bisbee, Tombstone, and the magnificent St. Anthony’s Greek Orthodox Monastery.
Escape the Tundra 2019
