Cici and I met in Las Vegas, Nevada. We then traveled to 29 Palms, Yucca Valley and Joshua Tree and Sequoia National Park and came back to Carson City, Nevada where we lived on a farm in Genoa. The farm had chickens, cows, horses, llamas and sheep. After several months, we traveled to Ashland, Oregon and eventually found a new home in Gardnerville, NV.
Our adventures continued in 2008. We left Gardnerville, NV for greener pastures including Bullhead City, Green Valley, Palo Verde, Sedona and Tucson, Arizona, and Jean and Primm, NV outlet malls and Laughlin, Mesquite and Reno, Nevada. The summer of 2008, we spent ruffing it camping and stayed in motels and yurts in Ashland, Crater Lake, Eugene, Florence, Klamath Falls, Grants Pass, Lincoln City, Newport and Medford. The summer of 2009, we camped out and stayed mostly in Mendocino and Monterey. The summer of 2010 was spent at a horse ranch in Vacaville, Ca. We briefly lived in Washoe Valley, Nevada in 2015. We also visited Cedar City, Kanab and St. George, Utah and stayed at many B&B’s, the Ritz Carleton, Hilton, Best Westerns, Luxury Spas, LaQuinta and Motel 6’s and all types of pet friendly hotels.
