If you recall, back in June, me and my family headed to Schnebly Hill Road off I-17 just shy of Flagstaff to 4-wheel to the Look Out. Believe it or not, the road was closed due to all the spring rains. Boy, doesn’t that feel like an eternity away! Fingers and paws crossed we […]
Kaibab Lake
No jokes this time, but I do want to share about a great adventure we had this past weekend. We have been on a lake theme and stuck with it. This trip was to Kaibab Lake up toward the Grand Canyon. I know that sounds really far away, but it was only 2 ½ […]
A Scenic Drive & Picnic
Dad loves to four-wheeling in his truck; me and Mom not so much. We enjoy scenic drives, but when the road is too bumpy, we just get tossed and thrown about. My old bones don’t like it, and Mom feels like she needs to visit the chiropractor afterwards. We compromise by going shorter distances […]
It’s a Blow Out!
I’m doing something different with my blog today. I’m going to incorporate as many song titles as I (aka mom) can think of. We’ll keep track, and you let me know what you come up with! Are you ready? I am, I said. Let’s go! We were on the road again heading north on […]
Mingus Mountain for Mother’s Day
Did you know that every day is “love your pet” day at my house? Me and my brother Edmond are healthy, happy and downright spoiled! Our mom takes very good care of us, and one time a year, we get to tell her thanks. Whoever created the holiday Mother’s Day knew all moms work hard […]
Camping at Enchanted Rock in Texas
I can’t believe we have lived in Phoenix six years now. Wow – how time flies! Since moving here, we got a camper trailer. Mom loves having a frig with ice and a human bathroom. Dad appreciates not having to sleep on the ground, which we used to do. In fact, while living in […]
Kuma heads to Greer, Arizona
I don’t like storms much, but mom and dad were sure glad when the monsoons finally arrived the other day. We got an inch of rain! The next day, we loaded up the camper and headed toward Greer, Arizona. We traveled once to Big Lake, and I remember it taking forever to get there, so […]
Boondocking Near Marshall Lake in Flagstaff
What a weird year this has been! Between COVID-19 closures and my dad’s truck needing repairs, we haven’t gone camping yet – and it is mid-July! Crazy but that all changed this weekend. Dad’s truck is fixed, and he hooked up the camper so we could head north to cool off. Mom’s goal was […]
Kuma goes Backpacking on the Dunraven Trail in Colorado
When mom got a very small duffle bag out, I wasn’t sure what it meant. I know what a big suitcase means – mom and dad are going someplace on an airplane without me. I know what the camper trailer means – a great adventure for me! I was confused until mom used the word […]
Kuma’s Rental RV Experience at the Maroon Bells in Colorado
If you have been following my adventures, you know me and my family got a camper a couple of years ago . lorrainebosse-smith.com/kuma-goes-first-camper-adventure/ We’ve been enjoying exploring and adventuring ever since! My family purchased our camper, but that wasn’t always the case. When we were living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, we planned […]
