Photo Journal 14 – Now we could raft home. – Cotopaxi, CO 6/25 to Gunnison, CO 6/25
We crossed the continental divide! I guess if we get tired of motorcycles floating to the Pacific is now an option ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Photo Journal 13 – Out of the frying panhandle, into something much more comfortable – Boise City, OK 6/23 to Westcliffe, CO 6/24
Oklahoma sure was hot and flat! Thankfully New Mexico and Colorado are much cooler. And more mountainous. And they have trees. And the roads have curves. We appreciate all these things.
VLOG 9 – A LOT OF OKLAHOMA AND A KANSAS STORM
Oklahoma was long, and Kansas tried to kill us with a storm.
Photo Journal 12 – Dirt Roads, Mud, and Airbnb – Alva, OK 6/21 to Boise City, OK 6/22
Oklahoma roads continue on and on. And on. And on. Also, we hit some gnarly mud.
VLOG 8 – THE GREAT OZARK STORM

Photo Journal 10 – Through the Ozarks – Little Rock, AR 6/17 to Mountainburg, AR 6/18

Late Nights
The late night situation in the woods described below happened June 17. But before reading on, we take a moment to remember June 17 one year back when our friends David and Michele lost their dearest Jourdan. Words don’t cover it. Our love, awareness, prayers and offerings of friendship — from us and those reading […]
Photo Journal 9 – New Tire Time – Tillatoba, MS 6/15 to Little Rock, AR 6/16
We’ve made our way into Arkansas (which is filled with lots of very dusty dirt farm roads!) from Mississippi. The Africa Twin needed a new tire so we headed about 40 miles off course to pick one up from Cycle Gear in Little Rock.
