Tonight we are stopped at a hotel near the LARGEST TRUCK STOP in the WORLD! What an exciting night in Iowa. The week spent before tonight is where Eric and I have spent the most fun part of our trip – Aberdeen, South Dakota!
There was no amusement park, shopping mall, or mountain scene that [...]
We have a new video posted!
Eric at the top of a hill of "white sand"
The past week and a half has been filled with all kinds of events. Eric and I had the fortune of meeting up with our family friend Anita in New Mexico and visiting Carlsbad Caverns and White Sands with her. We also got to visit [...]
Today, Eric and I did quite a lot of driving, but stopped at Mesa Verde National Park to explore. I, as you may be, was unfamiliar with this land mass before today. Spanish for “green table,” Mesa Verde is a large mountain with trees and shrubs spread throughout and a large flat top. It was [...]
Bryce National Park
The past two days Eric and I spent at Bryce, Zion, and Arches National Parks in Utah. In case you haven’t heard of them, they are basically an ode to red rocks in interesting formations, and in Arches National Park, the rocks were often shaped like arches – imagine that!

After passing through Arizona and visiting the Grand Canyon, seeing beautiful scenery with cacti scattered across mountainous horizons, a sudden oasis of civilization appeared in the horizon. Las Vegas is the most indulgent and exciting city I’ve ever been to.
The Las Vegas Strip is nothing [...]
The past few days have been a lot of fun. I’ll start with Los Angeles, where Eric and I were both able to take tennis lessons from a couple of incredible tennis instructors – world renowned Oscar Wegner and his partner in crime, Lucile Bosche. Oscar and Lucile were generous enough to put us up [...]
Today was filled with the sights, sounds, and smells (just as prominent as the sights and sounds at times) of San Francisco, California. There’s a lot of scenic beauty, diverse people, and delicious foods all packed into the a few square miles. It’s truly a magical city as corny as that might sound.
We started [...]
I have not been able to get connected to the internet for a couple days, so I will start off with Wednesday’s blog.
**Don’t forget to look at our trip videos, including our krampedpage on youtube, including photo gallery and Glacier Park/Bear Hunting
Wednesday
We hadn’t had a lot of luck finding tennis instructors willing to donate lessons until [...]
It was nightfall and Eric and I had just crossed the U.S. – Canadian border after some strenuous interrogation (about five questions simply making sure we had no drugs or weapons). It was from that moment on that I added the word “eh” to every other sentence for about two days straight!
The first place [...]
