About Me

    Hey! I'm C, the oldest in the Denning family. I love to be out in nature and to make all kinds of art. I don't have a favorite animal because I love all of them, but my three cats and husky dog come pretty close. I love the color green, as well as all my 20-something plants. 
    I'm homeschooled and a Junior in High School, but I'm about 6 or 7 at heart judging by the shows I like to watch. My favorite is Adventures From Moominvalley, but I have a long list.
    Feel free to stay awhile and check back soon for updates as me and my family travel the US!

Grand Canyon Adventures!

Image
Tuesday, March 1st The Grand Canyon     We woke up on the first of March with the promise of a surprise. We drove up to a small train station, and boarded a 100-year-old train car and rode to the Grand Canyon.       We had three hours there to spend. We walked around a few of the buildings, one of which was a Native American art exhibit. Of course, we also saw the canyon, of course! It was fascinating to see how small people looked, even just halfway down. We couldn't even see the bottom from where we were!       I think one of the reasons that the Grand canyon was so interesting was that there was nothing to compare the sheer scale to. It looked essentially just like the photos, unless you could find a point of reference on the bottom, like some small cabins we found with our monocular.      Overall, the Grand canyon was a blast, and though there were a few meltdowns, it was still an enjoyable, memorable day!

Zion

Friday February 25th -  Sunday, 27th Zion National Park     We got to our campsite on the 25th, and it was freezing. The temperature got down to 8 or 9 degrees overnight, which was just a bit too cold for comfort. However, the next day we powered through, wrapped ourselves warmly, and headed to Zion.     We went through the East entrance, which had a 1.1 mile tunnel through a mountain for driving. We had to fold our mirrors in because it was so narrow! Even after the tunnel it was an adventure, as the windy mountain roads were pretty icy. But thankfully, we made it down in one piece. We hopped on a tour bus and saw the entire park. At the end of the tour we started hiking on an a trail, but it got very icy very quickly, so we headed back closer to the entrance and hiked a different one.        The trail we decided to do was called the Emerald Pools trail, and it was incredibly beautiful, if a bit muddy. We saw some fantastic views, and got a ...

Camper Tour Video!

 A short tour of our camper! Video notes: I forgot to include this, but at the front of the camper under the cabinets, we had a lot of unused space. We turned that into a laundry hamper, which fits 3 large bags of dirty laundry, or about 8 normal loads. It has a flap at the top to put clothes into, and the entire front swings open for easy removal of laundry bags The bunks on the top belong to me, S, L, and F. The youngest 3 get the bottom bunks :) I apologize for the sound quality, my phone isn't the best at recording audio.
