Why on the Road?...
 Why on the road?... It was only this morning that we left Beaver Creek Campground, south of Sedona... we are a few miles for the Grand Canyon’s south rim, I have not seen any of it yet, and it is sometime in the middle of the night... We are camped on National Forest, they call it “dispersed” camping, off a forest road which are abundant around here. There is no one near by and my clock right away has switched to a no time zone... more on the Blog. Be well... Ara & Spirit ... Midwest will probably be next year... restaured BMW's... hummm... are you going to West Bend in july?... BMW MOA annual Rally... |

The Grand Canyon, AZ
 The Grand Canyon, AZ. What can one say about the Grand Canyon?... besides being mesmerized throughout this jaw dropping, eye popping, sensory overload experience. One of the few places I can sit for hours and loose my sight and senses deep into this incredible wonder. One of the most enjoyable place to also camp here... the nearest neighbor is about half a mile away... and I had dinner for lunch... as you will see! Be well...

More on the Grand Canyon, AZ.
 More on the Grand Canyon, AZ. It was just another beautiful day here, NOAA is predicting snow and mid twenties by Tuesday... but that is a couple days ahead. Lots of riding through the Park, the weekend crowd is a bit different... glad to see many city people coming here to enjoy the sites as we did... before the views disappear due to increasing haze... You can read about it on the Blog... You be well... Ara & Spirit www.theoasisofmysoul.com My Blog in colors... |

Valle's "Planes of Fame Air Museum", AZ.
You are all too kind... but then again... you are dog owners!!!
You know... I never liked the words dog owner!... I call him my buddy... I wonder what he would call me   Valle’s “Planes of Fame Air Museum”, AZ. I think, I am fairly sure that we are going to “The Grand Circle” on our way to California... “The Grand Circle” including Zion NP, Bryce Canyon NP, Glen Canyon, Capitol Reef... and more. Exciting riding, hiking, photography and eating!... eating meaning cooking too... There is much more if we went a bit more North/East... but, have to leave some for next year!... and the following... A couple days ago we went to Valle ‘s “Planes of Fame Air Museum”, what I thought was going to be a quick stop turned out to be an almost all day visit... a must to see, all in the Blog. PS: if anyone wants more pictures and info (taken also in pictures), let me know. I can send you the SmuMug link they are all on... too many for the Blog... Be well... Ara and Spirit... soon on the road again. www.theoasisofmysoul.com My Blog in colors... |

On the road, 89N through AZ and Utah...
 On the road, 89N, AZ and Utah. 89 Northbound from the eastern entrance of the south rim Grand Canyon to Utah must be one of the best scenic road I have ever been on. So much scenery, from rock formations, to the Little Colorado Gorge in a more intimate setting than the Grand Canyon... to Panguitch... were we had to turn around. Campgrounds are closed, snow is still present with more on the way, wind is howling and why can I not set my mind to the fact that winter is not over yet! So we are south of all that... 50 this morning near Kanab... and will take some day trips to the scenic areas surrounding us. Some pictures of our way up here on the Blog... You be well... Ara & Spirit |

Kanab Canyon and more, UT.
I just unlocked it and it is free to be copied... I will lock it again later...
Enjoy!!!  Kanab Canyon and more... UT. How can so much happen while on the road without a “home”? The trails of the mind must be wide open with all its doors unlocked... Turned on by a friend to Ken Foster’s book “the dogs who found me”, suddenly opens a path of joy finding out that his Pit must be Spirit’s brother! And what better surrounding than riding through a Canyon to discover just a bit later that “Best Friends Animal Sanctuary”, a no kill shelter for animals, has tours of their center... where I actually find Ken Foster’s book less than 24hrs after its discovery... and should I also mention “autographed”... All this leading to a great dinner... I never thought that living on the road was going to be so exciting... as you might read it in the Blog... Be well...

A quick long ride through Zion NP., UT.
 A quick long ride through Zion NP., Utah I need to learn new words to describe this Park, or I just have to stop riding through these natural wonders. My vocabulary is starting to feel limited! What a blast... going... what a shower... coming back! The rig is purring... with 170+/-K on it I even hate to think about it... no jinks please. And as if the ride was not enough we are moving there for a while... it will be base camp for many other attractions if that is what we are going to call them. This one is already in the Blog. Enjoy, be well... hope that you are also having a great weekend... Ara & Spirit www.theoasisofmysoul.com Our... Blog!!! |

The Canyon in Zion... Utah.
 The Canyon in Zion... Utah. Staying in most of the day, NOAA called in for some bad weather... but I think they are mistaken. Great campsite, so great that we might, just might stay here for a couple weeks... but I have said that before. It is just that there are so many places to ride around here... and see! Might even have some company soon... that would be great... Fire at night, great roads, great scenery... what more can I write on the Blog!... many pictures too... Be well...

Darker Skies In Zion NP., Utah...
 Darker Skies in Zion NP. Utah... The forecast... after these couple days is as sunny as it can be for as long as they can predict it! Lets endure these couple of days... I know that it will be all worth it. Did not hold us back from some riding as darker skies make for some great pictures and give out a different feeling about this whole place. We did have to turn around, bitter cold winds... the snow flakes were an added attraction... Luckily enough ingredients to make dinner... preceded by a visit to Farmer’s Market... The Journey goes on... cannot even think about our next destination! This is Home for now... Be well... Ara & Spirit www.theoasisofmysoul.com Today's Blog... |

Kolob Terrace road, Zion NP., Utah
 Kolob Terrace road, Zion NP. Utah East of here is still bitter cold, I was so wrong assuming that things will warm up at higher elevations! I guess I have lived in Florida too long... But west of here, off the town of Virgin, is Kolob Terrace road which is less crowded entrance to also Zion Park. Love the setting, the riding... but not the road blocked by the snow a bit further up... Cooked up a poor man’s pasta dish also with what I had left in the small pantry... tasty!... It is on the Blog... in living colors! Be well... Ara & Spirit www.theoasisofmysoul.com The Blog... |

April Fool?... not really, I wish!
 April Fool?... not really! I wish... April Fool’s day unfortunately did not fool me as I hear the snap of a broken eye bolt... There we go... again! But... happened 10 feet away from camp... could have happened the day before when we went riding through Red Rock Canyon and Bryce Canyon up 9100 feet... without any steering it would have been quite a drop... A couple more days... of course any day without riding is a tough one!... and we will be back on the road... in the meantime I wrote about the rides we just took... on the Blog. Be well...
