We completed a truly historic road trip in June, 2023. We traveled from our little hilltop in eastern Washington to Denver, to the largest, most comprehensive, and truly eclectic psychedelic conference, sponsored by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), a nonprofit working to raise awareness and understanding of psychedelic

Stop 133: The Road Home
The last stops on our 2.5-year road trip are a mix of overnight layovers and 2-night stopovers, as we strategically make our way during the Covid Crisis from Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains to Eastern Washington, just north of Spokane. It has been a bizarre and crazy drive — with campgrounds
Stop 41: The Last of Montana
This stop actually includes the two last drives in eastern Montana, on our way to North Dakota. We first camped outside of Billings, a fun city on the Yellowstone River, and later, we camped right in Miles City, also on the Yellowstone River. As we drove, all we saw were
Stop 40: Great Falls, Montana
We camped both to the west and east of Great Falls, Montana, as we continue to work our way through the state — heading eastward toward North Dakota. We spent a few nights northwest of the city in the cute little town of Shelby, and later spent a few nights
Stop 39: Glacier National Park

Stop 38: Riding the Route of the Hiawatha
On this stop we were able to cross off a long-time bucket list item! We rode the entire length (down, then up) of the 15-mile Route of the Hiawatha, a hall-of-fame rail-trail experience through parts of the spectacular Idaho Panhandle National Forests. You can simply ride down the rail-trail and
Stop 36: Rest & Relaxation in Troy, Montana
We took a break from our national park hunt during the first week in July, deciding to spend the week — including the Fourth of July — visiting and reconnecting with wonderful friends in the small town of Troy, Montana, which included a popular vintage car show as part of
Stop 35: Mountains, Geysers, Waterfalls, and Lakes
This stop was a crazy study of our Earth — including a supervolcano, volcanic hotspots, tectonic faults, and powerful earthquakes — as we visited Grand Teton National Park (#14 thus far), Yellowstone National Park (#15), and Earthquake Lake… as well as continuing our journey following the mighty Snake River.
