The Wind Cave and Some Dog Photos

Every place has that thing that tourists always do and locals only do when they've got friends visiting. In New York, it's the Empire State building. In Logan, UT, it's hiking to the Wind Cave.

Good Water Rim Trail

We've been trying to visit a lot of new places in Utah this fall since we'll only be living here for at most another year, and while it's hard not to go to the same places over and over again when those places are Moab, it's paying off. Last weekend, we went to the San... Continue Reading →

Carbon Neutral Kayaking

So, you eat local. You're an AW member. You signed that online petition to save the polar bears from drowning - that one everyone shared on Facebook.
