Red Lodge – All Dolled Up

When J and I spent a few days in Red Lodge, MT on our way home from his grandmother’s funeral last week, one of our very favorite things about it was that we could ride our bikes from our hotel to wherever we needed or wanted to go-from daytime adventures to dinner and drinks out on the town. And fortunately for me, I had thought to pack my go-to chambray sleeveless shirt, and Marc Jacobs hobo (that also doubles as a cross body bag)-both of which made for perfect riding attire!

I can’t believe I am hitting the road again for work today. Pretty sure I haven’t slept in my own bed for more than 4 nights in a row in the last month. Or completely unpacked from any of my trips, if I’m really being honest. 🙂 Guess I know one thing I’ll be doing this weekend.

Hope you are having a wonderful week!

Justin’s grandmother passed away a few days before the 4th of July. And since the service was in North Dakota and flights were ridiculously expensive, we decided to pack up our things (having just barely unpacked from our last adventure), and hit the road to tackle the 15 hour drive.

Outside of the service, we didn’t have a plan-just the bikes, our pups, and the open road. And so, we decided to create a little adventure out of the circumstances and enjoyed a few days in Justin’s home town with family before deciding to head to Red Lodge, Montana to do some epic biking and celebrate the 4th. We even took a little (ok, an unintentionally really LONG) detour through Yellowstone on our way back to the SLC. And while I couldn’t be happier to be home (or any more exhausted), I am so grateful that we were able to make the trip and celebrate the life of Justin’s Grandma Wood!

And so, I thought it only fitting to share some Instagram snaps with all of your to commemorate our completely unexpected and unplanned 8 day adventure…
