Welcome to the photo blog for David and Janet Elmore. You can find pages full of photos from our trips with Vanessa or Savanna (our van-based RV) and pages that are a record of events with lots of photos. Many of our travel photos are connected to a map at the bottom of our posts so you can see where we went and can look for photos at specific places.
Below is a list of recent posts.

We spent the night with our friends Katherine and John in Tucson and took a great 4-Mile hike with them in the morning. They are among the lucky Tucsonians who live just a few minutes from world class hiking...
Our drive to Tucson from near Phoenix was uneventful, but we were pleased to see the flowers by the road — poppies, lupine, and Bougainville. After arriving at Katherine and John’s we caught up...
Even though we had a long drive to Tucson, we did a bit of sighteing at Hoover Dam before leaving Lake Mead. The Dam is quite an engineering miracle that I remember reading about in my “Weekly...
We packed up in Death Valley and headed out the Daylight Pass Road between the Grapevine and Funeral Mountains. The ride to Las Vegas is through pretty uninteresting territory, but great mountain views. In...
