And that’s the wrap on our Utah Siblings Trip 2018! We’ve always been a close trifecta but these trips are such a great opportunity to reconnect. I remember the magic of last year and wondered if it was a fluke. This trip was different than the last one but the magic was still there. I…
So this is the last day of the trip. It was a real long one. I can never resist a sunrise and when you combine that with lots of driving and a red eye… well that’s a long day. Morning in Moab When we first got to Red Cliff Lodge the day before, we knew…
We have now hit 4 National Parks on this trip! Some of them are more highly rated on our list than others, but feeling pretty good about how much we are covering and seeing and enjoying. Morning Time I’m always up first in this group – and so I was confident that I would catch…
Another day, another national park. Right now we have hit up 2 and I think by the end we will be at 4? Pretty proud of that fact. Today was a lot of driving – but also a lot of killer views. Bryce is like nothing else in the world – and has to be…
Today was a true combo of driving and hiking. The hike we did reminded me that yoga is not necessarily cardio. I obviously made it through and we were always going to be fine, but man I was winded for the first twenty minutes. Despite waking up to some consistent rain, the day turned out…
The week started off a bit slow…. because we still didn’t have electricity from the last nor’easter. In the event there was any doubt about the need for a generator, that is gone. And just like all the other weeks, I’ll say the same thing. This is really coming together and feeling real. On Friday,…
Yikes this was a long day. It started in Boston and ended in Utah. There is something so incredibly punishing and rewarding about a 6 AM flight – especially when you live in the burbs. Everyone was a trooper from start to finish. Our goal for the day was essentially to get to Zion and…
The beautiful Richmond bathtub arrived this week – and I was beyond excited. Just like your traditional birth announcement, I texted several people and received congratulations / responses that were definitely more aligned with life-changing events. Clearly the people in my life are just as thankful we are moving past this tub phase. But the…
After the success of our Seattle Siblings Trip last year, we have elected to try the whole thing again – except in Utah. There is something a bit wholesome about taking a family vacation to national parks. It’s just fun to explore the great outdoors and drive around for 5 days. And just like last…
It feels oddly poetic that the week we talk about generators…. is the week that we get hammered by a nor’easter. We are currently on day 3 without power. I’m not exactly writing this by candle light, my parents have a generator so that’s a win. I made a few trips over to check out…
