Well then I’ll give you a dollar 🙂 If you are new to these two, Flora is our 120 lb mally girl, rescued about two years ago. She’s the biggest, goofiest, smushiest love sponge of a dog. Dexter is our newest addition. We adopted him at age 20. TWENTY! He’s …
There’s this place. It’s called White Pocket. I kinda feel like I landed on another planet White Pocket is logistically difficult to get to. It’s in the middle of nowhere and to get here it takes a really good 4wd (on most days) with high clearance (we love our Xterra!!) …
What good is a shoe review without an adorable fluffy malamute? This is my first official shoe review. My last couple of relationships with shoes haven’t been very good. It all started when Mizuno discontinued my one true love of a shoe — the Wave Elixir. Oh, how I loved …
I heard about this cool little slot canyon just north of Kanab that was fairly easy to hike to. You can’t really find directions online and so this made the journey even more exciting for us. We loaded up and brought Flora along for the adventure. Check out these pics! …
I’m going for round 2 at the Antelope Canyon 50 miler on Feb 21. I am SO EXCITED! Antelope Canyon was my first foray into the world of ultrarunning last year. My slightly crazy friend Cory (I mean that in the very best way) convinced me that since Antelope Canyon …
Crazy? Stupid? Crazy stupid? I just registered for the Zion 100 Ultra. The climb up Gooseberry Mesa is insane, and breathtaking! I love Zion National Park. It’s probably my most favorite place on Earth. Living in Kanab, UT, Zion is practically in my back yard. It’s my kid’s first “playground”. …
Today was a pretty great day. pretty cheeeezy, I know. We went on an epic, amazing hike with some pretty amazing friends. J.J. didn’t whine AT ALL (ok, maybe like one time…) Behold — Yellow Rock. Yes, it’s really THIS yellow. Pretty awesome 🙂 The hike to Yellow Rock is …
I’m kind of freaking out right now. Something pretty amazingly terrifying and awesome just happened. I received this email that says: “Dear Jill,We are pleased to advise that you have been awarded the local scholarship for Grand to Grand Ultra 2015.” O.M.G. The Grand to Grand Ultra is the only …
JJ checks out some ancient dwellings We’ve lived in Kanab for 10 years now so it always comes as a surprise when we find new “secret” place to explore. A friend told me about these wonderful, ancient ruins a couple weeks ago and before taking the family, my friend Molly …
A few snaps from our recent adventure to Cobra Arch. We took the kiddos this time, not sure how they would handle the distance and/or terrain. Harry impressed us with an 8 mile roundtrip, his longest ever, without any whining — and it was pretty strenuous! We are so proud …
