Hello from Spokane, WA
Hello from Spokane, WA! So I think our last travel post was from Phoenix, AZ. That was a week ago. Sorry it’s taken a week to post something new about our trip. I’m sure everyone is wondering where in the world we’ve been. We’ve been very busy. A quick rundown:
From Phoenix we headed up to Lake Powell, with a quick stop at the Grand Canyon
and spent the night. This is wear the water pump video happened. We’ve still not gotten that resolved btw and I have the feeling it’s going to be a JOB. I think we’re going to try and get it fixed in a couple of weeks when we get to Wilmington, NC. Until then we’re going to water jug it. Anyway we got to see the Glen Canyon Dam

and then headed north to Provo, Utah just south of Salt Lake City. I’m not kidding, we ate at THE BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT ever!!! It’s called Red Iguana and I highly recommend it if you find yourself in Salt Lake City. Try the Mole, it’s what they’re known for.
From there we headed up to Jackson Hole, Wyoming with a quick stop by Bear Lake for some Raspberry Jam and a Raspberry Milkshake (my taste buds haven’t been the same since). Jackson Hole was awesome! We started our day with breakfast at the Rusty Parrot Lodge and then shopped in town. Then it was on to the Grand Teton’s and Yellowstone (we’re putting together an Old Faithful video which will be up soon).
I can scratch something new off my bucket list: We got to see a 24point bull moose!! In fact I almost ran over him!! There truly are no words to describe the beauty and the wildlife we saw. Courtney got to have a staring competition with a buffalo which I don’t recommend but we felt safe enough. From Yellowstone we headed up to Bozeman, Montana where we had an amazing lunch at The Nova Cafe. What a great little city, btw!! From there it was on to Spokane, WA, the final destination of the first part of our trip.
For those of you who didn’t know, we came here for a wedding. Courtney’s good friend Stephanie Ataide, whom she met at Women of Faith and who’s brother Ryan works with us on the Revolve Tour, got married and of course we wanted to be here so we made this a part of our journey. We had a great time visiting with good friends from all over and resting by the Spokane River.
We’ve been here for four days and are leaving this afternoon, en route to Mt Rushmore. From there we’re headed to Door Country, WI for a weekend with friends. Steven and Keresa – get ready! We’re on our way!! We’ll check in again in a couple of days. Peace…
