WCXBDF3KVRQ3 – Our trip to Aruba was basically perfect. The weather was great and just about everything about the trip was relaxing. I would definitely recommend a trip there to anyone. We stayed at the Manchebo Beach Resort which was beautiful and not crowded. It felt like we had the place to ourselves at times. [...]

Capital Theater Tour – Flint, MI

I had an opportunity to tour the Capital Theater in Flint today. As I spent a fair amount of time there as a angsty teen I was curious about what had happened to the place. It was basically decorated in post apocalyptic style when I wasted away my formative years and it has not improved [...]

After visiting Yosemite we drove to the Mono Vista RV Park in Lee Vining, CA. It was a pretty decent place. It did have pay showers which we thought was a little strange. I did not realize anybody still did that. It had clean bathrooms and a nice dog walk area. In the morning we [...]

Day Fifteen- Yosemite

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

After we left Monterrey we drove toward Yosemite. I had planned for us to stop a couple hours from the park and drive the rest of the way in the morning since it was already late afternoon when we left. Somehow the campground was not where our GPS said it should be and apparently we [...]
