The Southwest... 2007
My older sister, Alexis, loves traveling and has been all over the world. She is one of the most independent, ambitious, and brave people I know... and she also loves a deal. She never let finances hold her back. Because of her thriftiness, we (along with my twin sister, April) were able to take a road trip throughout the southwestern U.S., visiting some sites we had been to as little kids with our father. We got our exploratory nature directly from our dad. He believed life was about the experiences and the memories you can make, and tried his best to expose us to the amazing things we can find right in our own back yard. He passed away in 1997, so this trip let us to relive some of the Parks he thought were special, as well as see some new and spectacular places.
