Do Life Right

My family recently went on a trip to Northern Arizona and Southeastern and Central Utah to explore dinosaur bones. We actually ended up going to more of Utah than we’d originally intended. It is a fantastic state. The terrain changes drastically, much more than any other single state we’ve been to. [...]

My family and I recently went to U-DIG Fossils, a trilobite fossil quarry in central/western Utah near Antelope Springs (although we never saw that town or any town near there). Go with a full tank of gas and plenty of drinking water (and food), as there are no services of any kind (including bathrooms [...]

Thinking of traveling to United States National Parks this year? Consider getting an “America the Beautiful National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass“. It’s only $80 and is good for a year (purchase it at the next National Park you go to). It can quickly pay for itself with the cost of [...]

Are you taking a trip this summer, yet are worried about your Webkinz pets?

Check out RoadSideAmerica for roadside attractions in your area, where you’ll be on your [...]

We recently revisited Madera Canyon. Some of my photographs from last fall are in the post “Madera Canyon”. Here are some new pictures from a few days ago. The two girls are my daughters, the adults are my parents. “Canyon”, my older daughter’s new Webkinz Bengal Tiger, joined in on our [...]

My daughters have been extremely interested in caves and mines lately, so we’ve been touring as many as we can find. This is an important part of Unschooling that is often misunderstood. As Unschoolers, we parents are the facilitators of our children’s learning. When they are interested in a particular topic, no [...]

Happy LEAP Day! Leap Day is one of my all time favorite days. It’s a Bonus day that always makes me think of rainbows and smiles! To celebrate this occasion, I’ve made a list of my favorite reasons I’m glad I started this blog. I’m also giving each of my daughters [...]
