Nestled in the heart of Clark, Colorado, and just a stone’s throw away from the bustling Steamboat Springs, lies a hidden gem that can only be described as magical: Vista Verde Ranch. My family and I decided to embark on a winter adventure to this enchanting place, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable vacations we’ve ever had. From the moment we landed in Steamboat Springs, the warm hospitality of Vista Verde Ranch was evident. A friendly staff member greeted us at the airport, sign in hand, ready to whisk us away to our winter wonderland.

Bugs Off Pads – Trial and Honest Review
Living in the middle of Arkansas Delta farmland definitely has its advantages and disadvantages. One huge advantage is the reasonable cost of living, but an equally huge disadvantage is bugs… and lots of them! In fact, driving down the highway here at night is pretty much guaranteed to get your vehicle completely covered with bugs (or at least what is left of them). They hit the windshield with such frequency, it sounds like you’re in the middle of a storm, and people around here call it “bug rain”. The problem with all these bugs is that not only do they
A Spring Break Trip and A Lesson Learned
Top 10 Tips To Avoid A Car Break-in And Deal With The Aftermath During our recent spring break trip to San Francisco, we fell victim to a smash and grab car break in.

A New Adventure – Ski Biking In Colorado
When’s the last time you tried something new…I mean something totally different?? For us it was just last week. We had planned our family ski trip to Colorado some months back, and as the date approached I started having some doubts. You see, I learned to ski later in life (age 40) and honestly I would categorize my skill level as beginner. I enjoy getting up on the mountain, riding the lifts, and seeing the beautiful snow-covered peaks, but the way down is always a bit…bumpy! Along with my mediocre skiing skills, this year added injury to my plight. Recent
Adventure Of A Lifetime…Dogsledding In The Rockies
This week I had a bucket list experience…and honestly I didn’t even realize how much I would enjoy it! The boys had planned a day of skiing on the mountain and because I don’t ski (it’s a long story…) I knew that I had the day to myself. So, I searched for activities to do in Summit county, CO. and I stumbled across a dog sledding place in Breckenridge (Good Time Adventures). They had one spot left and because I was feeling adventurous I went ahead and booked a solo trip. Getting there was somewhat nerve-racking…the forecast was for
