State Park

Last Friday after work we left Glacier N.P. and made the long two day journey to Memaloose State Park on the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. The first day we…

This week we’re staying at Boyd Lake State Park in Loveland. When planning our route through Colorado this wasn’t our first, second, or even third choice for a place to…
