WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

Our little gremlin is already 5 months old. Swipe right for when he was a chonky little guy. 🐶💕 Day 10.5 - Our final travels and return home. DAY 10 - Riverside walks, a valley of fire, and big horned sheep. DAY 9 - Hoodoos, emerald pools, and tired legs. DAY 8 - Goblins, grand staircases, and another early morning sunrise.
