Destination: Sioux Falls, SD (5.5 hours, 385 miles) Today was an interesting day because we weren’t exactly sure what the plan was until after we woke up. Jaclyn and I both had ideas but didn’t really research what makes sense or what we’re most interested in. So, we pulled out a literal map (yep, they …
Destination: Sheridan, WY -> Custer, SD (10.5 hours, 575 miles) Today was our last day in Yellowstone and we packed up the AirBnB to head for a small hike to Wraith Falls and then out the scenic northeast entrance of Yellowstone. It was rainy the entire car road to the trailhead but cleared just before …
We haven’t given up or gotten eaten by a bear. We just had tons of fun with the Weier’s in Minnesota that we need to catch up! Currently waiting for our pizza in the water park! We also realized a few days ago we don’t know how we’re getting home since flights are $500/ticket 😮
Happy Father’s Day to the man behind this crazy whirlwind across the country! Jay – not only did you come up with the idea for this road trip, but you made it come to fruition and are literally the driving force behind our adventure! You do so much for our family each and every day! …
Destination: Old Faithful, Grand Prismatic Hot Springs (2 hours + 1 hour for a Buffalo Jam, 80 miles) This morning started off by rushing out of the cabin to try and catch an Old Faithful eruption ( or interuo. We were right on the edge of making it until we had a 1 hour bison …
Hey, everyone! Jaclyn here! I’ve mostly been the photographer so far, but I’ll take a stab at writing this entry. Today we packed up as usual in the morning and we were on the road for Yellowstone a little after 7am. I was sad to leave Grand Teton – it was so beautiful! The mountains …
Today was spent exploring Grand Teton National Park. We were slow getting going this morning because it was raining outside and we were waiting for it to clear so we could go on our boat ride and hike. Unfortunately, we’ve learned that slow mornings in a hotel/AirBnB leads to everyone being on edge by the …
Destination: Teton Village, WY (1 hour, 45 miles) We took advantage of being close to the Tetons and the later checkout time. I took Brooke to the pool right after breakfast and we had it completely to ourselves. She practiced her alligator crawl and “bobs”. After we got ready and checked out we headed for …
Destination: Flying Saddle Resort, Alpine, WY (4 hours, 240 miles) Today was a planned rest day and I think we hit it at a perfect time. Thanks to the time zone change Beckett slept past 5am for the first time on the trip. Everyone got a full 7-8 hours so we should be good for …
Destination: Antelope Canyon and Salt Lake City, UT (6 hours, 360 miles) We had a slow morning as our tour of Antelope Canyon wasn’t until 11. Beckett woke us up again around 5 so we had quite a bit of time to burn. By the time we left the AirBnB we were all going a …
