Sarah & Rick: Summer in The Hills
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2012/12/summer-in-hills.html
A journal of our adventures. Sunday, December 30, 2012. Summer in The Hills. We spent the middle of 2012 driving around, hiking, and camping in the Black Hills. Here are a few of the highlights. In May we explored a section of the Centennial Trail. A 111 mile trail marking the 100th anniversary of South Dakota statehood (1889-1989). There is a trail head about 20 minutes from our house! We are not used to seeing so much green color on our hikes! This is by far the best way to enjoy Crazyhorse. This backp...

http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2012/12/christmas-2012.html
A journal of our adventures. Sunday, December 30, 2012. We traveled to Kansas for Christmas. It had been an entire year since we had been back to Ark City. We enjoyed lazy days at Mom's house and special time with family and tradition in Topeka. Rick helped Uncle Jim fix some family recipes, including noodles, dressing, and meatballs. The time flew by way too fast! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Rome and Amalfi Coast. Visitors to 11555 High Valley Drive. Summer in The Hills.

Sarah & Rick: Fall Adventures
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2012/12/fall-adventures.html
A journal of our adventures. Sunday, December 30, 2012. Cool weather arrived along with fall color, the most spectacular of which was to be found in Spearfish Canyon. We took a hike along Iron Creek to enjoy the views. In October we rode our 4-wheeler to Nemo for lunch. It was 2 hours over on parts of the Centennial Trail and 20 minutes back on the gravel roads!

Sarah & Rick: August 2010
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
A journal of our adventures. Wednesday, August 18, 2010. Rick and I did a 2-night backpack trip into Merriam Lake in the Lost River Range, which contains the highest peak in Idaho - Mt. Borah - at 12,668 ft. http:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borah Peak. But that's another story. Back to Merriam. The drive is quite long, and very rough in the end, from Boise. The hike is about 2 miles and fairly steep - about 1400 ft elevation gain. It is well worth it. We woke up to a pretty sunrise on Saturday morning. The r...

Sarah & Rick: November 2009
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
A journal of our adventures. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Rick and I flew to Kansas to go see an Oklahoma State football game with my parents. We had. To do this last year, but the kick-off time was changed without our knowing and we missed it! This year, we had success. What fun it was! After the all-you-can-eat pregame. We headed out into the enormous, packed, and constantly cheering stadium to watch the Cowboys beat the Texas Tech Red Raiders. You know, it wasn't. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sarah & Rick: June 2011
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
A journal of our adventures. Thursday, June 30, 2011. Summer finally got here, and although it hasn't been warm long enough to melt the snow in the prime backpacking areas, we did make it out last weekend for an over-nighter. We walked about 10 miles before we figured out we must have passed our destination. No matter. Our packs are significantly lighter this year thanks to some new super-light gear. Plus, we needed the exercise. Wildflowers and butterflies everywhere. We turned into pirates. Back in Mar...

Sarah & Rick: January 2010
http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
A journal of our adventures. Monday, January 25, 2010. Wow January 2010 is almost over and I haven't even reported on Christmas! I was once again fortunate to be able to spend two full weeks in Kansas with my parents AND my wonderful husband came with me. The time flew by. My parents live in a parallel universe where you're left wondering where the hours between meals have gone. Combine that with a few road trips to visit family and friends and it really becomes a whirlwind trip. On Dec 27, Rick and I se...

http://sarahrick.blogspot.com/2012/12/rome-and-amalfi-coast.html
A journal of our adventures. Sunday, December 30, 2012. Rome and Amalfi Coast. In September, Sarah and her mom went to Italy on their first mother-daughter trip. Destination: Rome for two days and then to the Amalfi Coast for five. With over 1000 photos to choose from, here is one from each day of the trip. Day 0 - Ok so this isn't Italy (it's MSP airport), but I just love this picture of my mom! Day 3 - We headed south to the coast, stopping at Monte Cassino. Day 5 - We had a fascinating tour of a buffa...
