Things I Miss from America thumbnail

Last week, I waxed poetic about all the things I’m going to miss so dearly when I leave Thailand. It might be a temporary goodbye, but believe me guys, there will be tears. Lots of tears. Still, in the last few weeks I have started to feel those familiar feelings of longing for home. Not quite…

A Really JUCY Road Trip! Part VI: Facts and Figures thumbnail

Take five days, three states, two girls, one Jucy camper. Add in two national parks, one state park, one historic driving route, and countless natural wonders (and a few man-made ones, too) and mix well. The resulting road trip is likely to promote extreme happiness, encourage wild wanderlust, and inspire a love of the RV lifestyle…

A Really JUCY Road Trip! Part V: Valley of Fire thumbnail

Was it here already? The last day of our all-too-short road trip though the American Southwest? We weren’t ready for it to be over, but we didn’t have much time to linger on that thought — it was a three state day. We started the morning in St. George, Utah, crossed briefly back into the northwest…

A Really JUCY Road Trip! Part IV: Lake Powell and Horseshoe Bend thumbnail

I woke up on day four of our mini American Southwest road trip wishing I could stop time.

We’d done and seen so much already, but I wanted more. I’d quickly…

A Really JUCY Road Trip! Part III: Antelope Canyon thumbnail

You’d be pretty hard pressed to find a traveler who hadn’t heard of The Grand Canyon. But what of the other surrounding natural wonders of the American Southwest? I freely admit that prior to planning this roadtrip, I can’t be sure I’d ever heard of places like Lake Powell, Glen Canyon, Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon…

The Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon. Is it really, though? That was our little joke, on the rainy, foggy day we descended upon one of America’s greatest natural treasures. Of course it’s grand, and of course we were being spoiled little brats by deadpanning otherwise. But it was harmless fun, and helped salve any disappointments over the weather’s quite…

A Really JUCY Road Trip! Part I: Route 66 thumbnail

Thinking back, I’m not quite sure when the idea hatched. If I really dig around in my memory, I think it might have been a vague suggestion by one of us to drive to the Grand Canyon as part of our Vegas adventures. After all, we had some time to kill between Britney and Burning Man…
