Storms in the midwest can be pretty intense, but they can also bring an erie beauty. Such was the case on Lake Michigan right before this storm rolled in.

Red Rock Park
One of our favorite accidental discoveries was Red Rock Park in Gallup NM. After an aborted attempt to camp at another park that left a lot to be desired, Sarah's keen eye caught a sign for Red Rock from the highway. The folks running the park were friendly and full of stories and the setting among the, you guessed it, red rocks was spectacular.
Out The Window of the Empire Builder
We are traveling westbound on the Empire Builder, Amtrak's train from Chicago to Seattle/Portland. There are some wonderful snowscapes to view this time of year from dawn til dusk.
