Exploring Outside the 303
A couple is embracing and sharing a kiss in front of towering, colorful rock sculptures set against a desert landscape with a clear blue sky and wispy clouds. The sculptures are composed of large boulders stacked in a precarious, gravity-defying manner, forming seven tall, vibrant towers in shades of red, yellow, blue, and green. The couple, dressed warmly in jackets, stands out against the stark, monumental art installation, creating a striking contrast between the human intimacy and the massive, artificial formations. The scene evokes a sense of wonder, adventure, and appreciation for unique experiences and natural beauty.

Exploring the Seven Magic Mountains

We travel different now ⁠ ⁠ When we use to travel it was for vacation and usually included some place warm, drinks with little umbrellas, and some type of water to play in. While all of that is wonderful and fun, it never crossed our mind to check out local gems like the Seven Magic Mountains outside of Las Vegas. ⁠ ⁠ I say we travel different now because before we were on a limited timeline when we vacationed.
