Redstone Castle

The 1902 castle and estate, also called Cleveholm Manor, represents a time in American history when empires were built during a nationwide drive toward industrialization.  The father of Redstone, John C. Osgood was recognized during his day as one of the six most prominent captains of industry in the US. He formed the Colorado Fuel Company, becoming the sole coal supplier to some regional railroads and furnishing high quality coking coal to precious metal smelters across the Rockies. The castle is of unique significance in Colorado, due to its style and scale. The interior and its furnishings, 75% of which are original, were crafted exclusively for Mr. Osgood.

Meet Hilda

Lola is on a health retreat currently, until we can find a different battery for her. Shet no longer wants to recharge.  We are slowly adjusting to Hilda, who seems to be a bit strong in personality.  We're adaptable though, and have learned to look beyond her abrasiveness.  And, we really do appreciate her help in navigating on our little jaunts.

Snake River Gorge

Shoshone Falls, Idaho

Shoshone Falls is a waterfall on the Snake River located approximately five miles east of Twin Falls, Idaho. Sometimes called the "Niagara of the West," Shoshone Falls is 212 feet  high—45 feet higher than Niagara Falls—and flows over a rim 1,000 feet wide.  Beautiful!

Glacier National Park

I could give you all sorts of informations about the park, but really, the pictures tell it all.  It is one of the most amazing places I've ever been, with lots of trails for every difficultly level for hiking.  A shuttle can take you over the top to avoid having to drive in the traffic.  In fact, if you're in an RV, you aren't allowed to drive it.  I ate the most amazing huckleberry cobbler in my life at one of the little restaurants. That alone is worth going back for!

The West...just as it was. Step back in time with a visit to This Is The Place Heritage Park, Utah's premier living history attraction. There is plenty to see and do, and we had loads of fun!
