Candy and I are starting our road trip today!

So this is going to be -- how many days is it, actually?

I believe it's... well, I think initially we had 10, but now I think it's 11.

I know we're starting today, Thursday, August 27th and then we'll be back in Florida, Tampa by September 8th and that's a Tuesday.

So definitely like a week and a half to two weeks... somewhere in there.

We're going to make multiple stops and each day we're going to plan about,  I would say, average eight hours a day.

There are some places where we'll be only driving like four hours a day  

but most of the days will be like an eight hour drive average

and we'll probably be adding on more hours because we'll be making pit stops

and probably looking at some gorgeous scenery along the way  because we're going towards Utah first

and I've always wanted to go to Utah because they have the  most beautiful landscapes there.

They do. We got a little teaser a few years -- has it already  been three years?

Actually, around this time, Labor Day weekend, we went with our girls on a girl's trip

to uh... what was that? I can't think of the name of the  national park right now that we went to.

We went to Zion and then when we were driving there from Las Vegas, we were like, we should have just stayed in Utah this entire trip.

Yeah, I feel like we wasted our time in Vegas.

We're a little bit older and we've been to Vegas so many times  that we were kind of over it by the time we went again.

and we're not hikers, but I still like a little bit of hiking  and seeing like the mountains and stuff.

So yeah, if you're debating between Vegas and Utah, go to Utah.

But yeah, first we're going to Sedona, Arizona.

We just left from LA about two and a half hours ago and right  now we're in Coachella -- driving through Coachella.

Yeah, Candy was just telling me about her  Coachella experience and how horrible it was  

because I was telling her I would never want to go to Coachella.

I'm just not a big music fest person like that.

I like my own concerts I like to go to but I don't like big music festivals like that.

Yeah, the music part was awesome and everything in between that is not awesome

and again, this was 10 years ago already when I went to Coachella.

Yeah, so I don't know if it's changed since then -- the logistics of it...  but um, anyways...

Anyways, yeah so we're passing by Coachella area now and  it's really in the middle of the desert.

You can feel it through the window, how hot it is.

So after Sedona, we're only going to stay one night there.

Kind of like a pit stop because I was thinking Phoenix first but then we were like, you know, we should just go a little bit further to Sedona

and also there's more beautiful scenery there so I found this resort called the Sky Lodge Resort  

and they're supposed to have like this deck or terrace that has a beautiful view  

of one of their iconic red rocks so kind of looking forward to that.  

So we're just going to relax and get some rest and have some dinner there

and then next day, we're going to go towards Capitol Reef National Park

but on the way, I want to go through Burr Trail Road  which has some of the coolest views

and they have like this one view where you could see all the switchbacks of the road.

I think the driving might be a little bit terrifying  but Candy's going to have to drive that part

because she doesn't do so well with motion sickness if I'm driving  on mountains so good luck with that, Candy. Hahaha!

So Burr Trail Road is pretty famous in Utah.

I didn't really know about it until a month ago when I was planning this out

and my boss actually told me about it because he used to live in Utah

and he said you definitely need to go through that road.

Some of the views like you probably won't be able to see anywhere else,

and then we'll end up at Red Sands Hotel which is in Torrey, I believe, or near Torrey.

And that's close to Capitol Reef National Park.

Yeah, if you watched part one of Crystal's road trip  when she came to California from Florida,

she didn't replace Kuma with me. Kuma is still here.

So this is still a dog-friendly road trip.

So we will be staying at all the dog-friendly hotels.

Yes, I didn't forget to mention Kuma. Sorry, Kuma.

On the way here, she took a different route on the way to California.

So on the way back to Florida, it's a little bit of a  different route and we'll also be stopping by Nebraska.

Yeah, but before we get to Nebraska, we still got some other stops.

But yeah, so the one that I took from Florida to California --  that was really quick. I did it in five days.  

It was a little bit longer than what other people do,  but I took five days because I wanted to do 8-9 hours each day

since I had my dog and I wasn't sure how much she could take within a day.

She actually did really great. She probably could go longer.

but I felt like eight to nine hours a day was perfect for me as well  because I didn't feel too tired each day.

I felt like it was just the right amount of driving for driving solo every day.

This trip, since I know I have Candy with me too, I'm going a little longer and stopping by different places because I'll have some help driving.

I could probably do it all by myself again but...

But it would be nice to have some help, so it's great that Candy  decided to come with me back to Florida.

So yes, we'll be staying in Capitol Reef  for a couple of days exploring the national park.

Maybe do some night photography because they have a place where they're known to have a really great place for night photography

and then after that, we're going to make our way towards Arches National Park.

Stay there for a couple of days and then we go to Denver.

And Denver is kind of like a pit stop, so we're only staying there for a night.

And then we move on -- that's when we go to Nebraska.

We're staying in a town called Beatrice, which probably nobody knows where that's at

but that's where our grandma used to live or near there -- real close to Beatrice  

Yeah, which is like about a 20 minute drive from Beatrice.

We have not been to the farm in years. I don't even remember... maybe almost 10?
