The Bear was apoplectic about spending 3+ hours in mid-July driving through Death Valley. That may or may not have been a driving force in us actually doing it. Because we’re a fan of awkward humor and of pushing our kids’ boundaries of comfort. Be adventurous, keep stepping out on ledges, but be smart and safe. That’s exactly what we did in the cool comfort of a Toyota Sienna.

I wrote about our drive through Death Valley, our first ever visit to mighty Yosemite, magical Mono Lake, a mysterious desert sculpture park, and the Hollywood ending to our 3-week cross country road trip for Family Vacation Critic.
