Yampa River State Park , Colorado

See pictures of the Hayden, CO area by clicking on this link:


Talk to the park ranger for good places to go tubing in the adjacent Yampa river.

The State Park camp ground isn't very big but it has a nice little trail all around it.


We visited the area in mid August and the biting insects were really bad.
Bring bug repellent!


Bathroom and laundry facilities are very clean and well taken care of.

When making reservations try to get a spot farthest away from the highway as it gets a bit noisy.

Steamboat Springs is only about a 30 min. drive from this location  and worth a visit. There are cute shops and restaurants and it's a nice town overall!

Image
When we started our travels August 1st 2019, we had created a walk-in closet in the back of the living room.  Downsizing was tough enough, so I at least had to hold on to something that was dear to me: My rather large assortment of clothes...well and shoes!  One has to travel in style, you know. The back of the trailer when we originally started to renovate. BEFORE we ever put in the walk-in closet. Then came the finished walk-in closet that didn't survive. In order to house these clothes and all, Joe had to build a clothes rack,  that stretched from wall to wall. Then we also had brought 2 dressers from our previous home, for that space. It was a good set up because it was all situated under the king sized loft, that was above. This loft was then used as additional storage space. Well the rough Texas highways did a number on this construction. First, half of the above loft partially collapsed.  Joe fixed it by reinforcing the structure....

Our latest random vacation destination pick took us to South America.  Our first time. The weeks and then finally days leading up to setting foot on Peruvian soil were filled with excitement of the newest Unknown to reveal itself. We landed in Lima late on a warm February night. The air feels familiar with its noticeable comfortable humidity.  After receiving our luggage we opted for a taxi to get us to our hotel 40 minutes away in the popular neighborhood called Miraflores in the heart of Lima. Traffic and how people drive is always a dead giveaway that makes you realize you're in a fore...
