Grand Canyon North Rim with Dogs

Day Trip: Oatman, AZ

We've been on the road since February 1st, but seemingly endless appointments to get us properly set up for fulltiming have left us no time to sightsee. The appointments are almost over, so today we took our first day trip since becoming fulltimers! We are currently in Lake Havasu City
