We set off well before the sun came up down the icy road from Bryce Canyon. Our destination was Salt Lake City. It was a long road, way up north, over four hours, and the cold traveled with us on our November journey. When the sky began to lighten we […]
No trip to LA is complete without a visit to Griffith Park. Iconic Griffith Park is to LA what Central Park is to NYC, there is something to see for anyone visiting. You can spend an entire day exploring, or even years and never see it all. Griffith is America’s […]
