Come along for the ride!

Hello friends, and welcome to the 2015 Gownezio Expedition! Our adventure will be taking us to several outstanding locations, including the Black Hills, Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone, and Rocky Mountain National Park. For those of you who are new to the Gownezio Blog, our friend Diane will tell you that things on the blog get really good when things get really bad. And that's why it's rated PG-13, if you are sharing this with the kiddies. You see, when you go nose-to-nose with a grizzly bear, get trapped with your hysterically sobbing mother-in-law at the bottom of a mile-deep canyon, step barefoot into horse manure, step barefoot into 6 inches of backed-up sewage, trip and fall and land every frickin' time on a boob, have a bear turn on you and have a brave, brav

e man who shall go unnamed instinctively shove the children aside so that they can become tasty morsels, get hit with a blast of bear spray and think you are literally going to die, have your 4-year-old almost push you over a 1000-foot cliff - and yes, all of these things have happened - then sometimes it gets a bit salty. And if you don't believe the joyous irony, just check the forecast for northern-central Ohio tomorrow, where we are expecting FOUR inches of rain. The next two nights are in Monroe, Michigan to see my mama, and then the push to South Dakota is on.

Since we are returning to Grand Teton, I'll have to share the grizzly-at-the-tent story with you soon!

We'll see you when we dry out!
