Trip Introduction:
This one was extra special for our crew because my father-in-law was able to join us again. He's been battling prostate cancer for many years now. Last year he had a brain tumor removed and he lost some vision and balance. He worked his way back up to be able to come with us. He has an amazing attitude and is always doing "fantastic".
We had another amazing trip/adventure and we were lucky to have very nice weather. The next week it snowed a few inches.
I do a better job telling the story of our trips via video. I hope you enjoy it!
