It’s Time to Hit the Road
It’s Time to Hit the Road
It feels like we have been stationary in Utah forever, and ever. As you know, this is were we have to be to get work done. We are getting ever closer to selling the shop here though, so that will change everything.
But today thankfully, it’s time to hit the road. Our first art show of the summer is in Ketchum, Idaho over the 4th of July weekend. (a list of all our shows can be found here)
We will have about a week in Idaho before we need to be in Sun Valley, so we are going to do a bit of exploring. Idaho is a fabulous state for boondocking. There are so many beautiful places to be, that are completely free. Our plan is to find the wild horses near Challis, hopefully boondock there a day or two, then head over to the Sawtooth mountains. We stayed in the Sawtooth area a couple years ago, and loved it. We stumbled on a boondocking spot that year, and that is were we plan on going again.
This is a photo I took that year of Hells Roaring Creek. Such a gorgeous spot, and I’m excited to go again.
We are both pretty excited to be on the road again, and especially to get out in the middle of nowhere. Next week is our 10th anniversary, and my Birthday. Both of which we like to celebrate as remotely as possible.
Right after the Sun Valley show, we head to Teton Village. I am really looking forward to seeing my mountains again.
I miss them every single time.
We may or may not have internet, but if we do, I’ll no doubt be posting on Instagram, especially if we find the wild horses. So follow those accounts to see what we’re up to between blog posts.
Today is also the Summer Solstice, so Happy Summer everyone!!
Have a safe journey and enjoy all that beautiful nature! Happy early anniversary and birthday!
I will be closely watching for the horses, Mary! Have a safe and enjoyable trip, and those Grand Tetons, SO MAJESTIC!
Hello, sounds like a fun time. Good luck with the shows. I love the view of the Tetons, one of my favorite places. Have a happy day!
I admire your courage and sense of adventure — the way you and Al live so beautifully in the moment is inspiring.
Happy Anniversary and Birthday (early)!
Well just in case you don’t have internet next week, happy anniversary and happy birthday! There’s nothing better than celebrating in one of your favorite places. Have a safe, fun trip!
Looking forward to your tales from the back roads.
I certainly understand that itch to move. You’ll be visiting some beautiful spots – enjoy!
What Daisy said!! I hope you have a wonderful anniversary, birthday, and road “trip” and much success at the shows!! The scenery is absolutely beautiful! I wish I could enjoy it in person! I’ll be watching for whatever you can post!!
Breathtaking images! Happy birthday and anniversary, Mary!
Happy early Birthday and Anniversary! Safe travels.
I can see why you’re excited about the spots you’re returning too.
We too have been pinned down, making engine repairs. I am so thrilled to be anchoring again tomorrow night!
Happy Summer – it looks like yours is going to be awesome, with all that to look forward to! ♥
I’m so happy for you!!!! I once raced my bike through those Sawtooth mountains. It was a 10 day race… wow, it was beautiful but very hard. Have a great time!!!! BTW, we were thinking of somewhere near Jackson for the eclipse until we started reading about the crowds. Now, we’re rethinking it…
Yay for hitting the (back)roads again! Looking forwadr to you finding those horses and seeing the pics on IG!
a happy summer to you… and a super great time… and in case there is no internet we wish you a happy birthday and a happy anniversary in advance..
Safe travels! I love your photos and I always enjoy reading your experiences!
I know how much you are looking forward to being ‘home’. I’m glad for you.
