The shipwreck Point Estero
I talked to my sister the other day, and she asked me what the heck happened to the blog. “It’s like you dropped off the face of the earth!” she said. Well…I guess she’s kinda right. I started GoGoTacoNegro so that our friends and family could track our adventures, and for a while there, those…

Two weeks already?!?
It’s kind of hard to believe we arrived in San Luis Obispo on April 22nd. How has so much time passed already? I certainly can’t complain. It’s pretty awesome here. Jacques took us to the nearby town of Orcutt to play disc golf at Waller Pines Park. Waller Pines is actually 36 holes!…

Leaving Moab
Remember how I said instant coffee wasn’t bad… but that didn’t mean it was actually any good? Yeah. Done with instant coffee, we packed up camp and headed straight into town. Both of us were looking forward to revisiting the Eklecticafe. I think they have the best coffee in Moab, in addition to great food…
