Bryce Canyon in Winter

It's been a year of overabundant snow in Southwestern Utah, and a recent visit to Bryce Canyon National Park was a unique opportunity to see this spectacular place at the end of still-snowy winter.
Welcome to the Visitors Center!

Red Mesa Redskins

A recent and beautiful drive across the Navajo Nation led us past the scenic town of Red Mesa, AZ - tucked into the northwestern-most corner of Arizona, just south of the Utah border.

B y B Aventura Excelente, Pt 2

The high point of the excellent adventure occurred when Ben and Brandon became the only American citizens on the day to cross the US-Mexican border - from the safety of El Paso into drug-war ravaged streets of Juarez for authentic tacos and sodas sweetened with real cane sugar.
