Iceland is an island born of fire and ice with white glaciers, black beaches and green meadows:a land of geysers, waterfalls and volcanoes.Reykjavik is set amid a fascinating landscape, a metropolis on the outermost edge of civilization and the world�s northernmost capital city.A little outside the city is an attraction that is a meeting place for one and all, The Blue Lagoon, the largest bath tub in the world!The mineral water it contains has a temperature of forty degrees centigrade and the milky-blue pool has been proven to possess beneficial healing qualities.Southeast of The Blue Lagoon is Hveragerdi, which is set within an idyllic valley. Due to its protected location and numerous thermal springs, in 1929 a garden city originated there and within its many greenhouses grow vegetables, fruit and exotic flowers.Amid the historic Pingvellir Plains, once the location of ancient gatherings and where justice was administered, is the �ararfoss Waterfall, the island�s oldest Man made device that was used to supply the region with drinking water. On the southern tip of Iceland is the small village of Skogar. The interior of the houses are comfortably furnished and the privately owned Homeland Museum gives a good insight into the daily life of bygone times. Large stones support the wooden sides of the houses, the roofs and remaining walls of which are protected by grass-covered earth.In this area is one of the island�s most gigantic and highest waterfalls, Skogafoss, that rages 60 meters into the depths below. The mist above the water cloaks the sight of this mighty natural wonder whose water thunders down across the cliffs of the ancient shoreline with awesome power.Iceland is a fascinating world of water, fire and ice and full of breathtaking beauty and overwhelming contrast. It is one of the last natural paradises on Earth.

The most spectacular sights in the Canadian Rocky Mountains are to be found mainly in its Northern region.Over the course of millions of years it was here that a unique and fascinating world of stone developed, abundant with natural beauty and awesome power. From the top of these mountains there�s a breathtaking panorama of surrounding peaks, glaciers and never ending valleys of stone.With unfettered power and in a wild cascade the freezing molten ice of the glacier runs through narrow gorges until it finally reaches the valleys below. Even the most massive of these ancient rocks was unable to prevent the relentless journey of the molten ice. The rivers pass beautiful dark forests that contain an immense variety of wildlife.The sparkling splendour of the Columbia Icefields covers an area of 300 square kilometres and dates back to the last Ice Age and in some areas the ice is up to 600 metres thick.The incredible power of various past landslides is evident along the shorelines of a number of mountain lakes including uprooted trees, wooden skeletons crushed by heavy masses of scree. In the course of time various of the trees became petrified and have thus been preserved forever.The beauty of the Rocky Mountains is a veritable wonder of nature and one of the last natural paradises on Earth.

Welcome to Historic Crown King, Arizona. This segment is found on the award winning DVD series: “FREE Camping In Arizona” Crown King is located in the Bradshaw Mountains of the Prescott National Forest. This town flourished in the early 1900’s as a mining hot spot. These days tourism pays out as native Phoenicians flock here to escape the scorching desert heat during the summer. At over 6000 feet in elevation Crown King is a cool choice just one hour north of the Valley. CK has a Saloon, General Store that serves delicious home made fudge, as well as numerous restaurants and plenty of shopping stores.
Guitar music is courtesy of Greg Flores who is an award winning glass sculpter, and alongside his wife Aimee are proprietors of “The Prospector Mall” loaded with souvenirs sure to please. There is plenty of tent camping possibilities around Horsethief Basin and a beautiful lake. We like hiking up to the fire lookout via the Kentuck Trail. Since the road in is rugged and has plenty of switchbacks it is not recommended to pull any trailers up here.
This segment is taken from our second DVD: “FREE Camping In Central Arizona – Part 2.” Each limited edition DVD is packed with over 70 minutes of scenic wonders, fantastic hiking trails, wholesome family activities, delicious places to eat at, stunning photography, historical treasures, and best of all, hundreds of FREE CAMPING locations, or as the RV crowd would say; “Boondockin’ sites” sure to please the entire family while keeping costs low!
“FREE Camping in Central Arizona” – Part II, starts off running where the first disk left off with an exciting adventure beginning north of Phoenix at Bumble Bee to the historic mining town of Crown King high atop the cool Bradshaw Mountains inside the Prescott National Forest near Horsethief Basin Recreation area. Scouters will enjoy earning their merit badges around Prescott’s numerous fishing and canoeing lakes centered around Courthouse Square as well as, hiking Mingus Mountain and the hillside artists’ community of Jerome. Train enthusiasts will love an excursion along the Verde Canyon Railway in Clarkdale and rock hounds will be in heaven with Sedona’s famous Red Rocks. From the Coconino National Forest near Flagstaff and touring Route 66 to Williams, we hit the open road and explore ancient Indian Ruins, as well as hike off the beaten path trails, and travel those backroads “Less Traveled” leading to impressive overlooks with unforgettable vistas stretching for miles.
Our Boondocking In Arizona DVD’s have been developed especially for RV’rs who have large rigs and wonder if they can get them into these fun places, and all those who love exploring the great outdoors.

DEATH VALLEY Situated in the USA, Death Valley derived its name during the gold rush that took place between 1848 and 1849, a time when hordes of pioneers journeyed to the west full of hope but where, in the seemingly never ending and merciless hot desert valleys, many frequently lost their cattle, their wagons and some even lost their lives.During the summer months the temperatures in Death Valley often exceed 45 degrees Celsius.A closer look confirms that Death Valley is an arid, desolate desert valley in which any visit should be treated with respect as the severe, unforgiving heat can prove fatal to those who travel unprepared.Badwater is the deepest point in the western hemisphere and is located 86 metres below sea level.The area that contains the so called �bad water� is on the border of a wide salt lake of which the water content is tantamount to a small pool.In a wide valley close to Badwater in the region of the Panamint Mountains, there�s a further major attraction, The Devil’s Golf Course on which bizarre crystal formations cover large areas of a dried out ocean.Around 1,000 A.D. the ancestors of the Shoshone Indians settled in this region, their largest village having been located at what is known today as Furnace Creek.One of the most famous and certainly most photographed areas in Death Valley is the hill range of Zabriskie Point, undoubtedly the most beautiful and spectacular observation point in the unique rock and desert landscape of South West California.Scotty’s Castle was the inspiration of two men from Chicago, an insurance millionaire named Albert Johnson and a legendary gold digger, Walter Scott.During the 1920s they built a magnificent hacienda that cost over 1.5 million dollars and today it provides an atmospheric impression of the realization of an incredible dream.Even today, the timeless and breathtaking scenery of Death Valley continues to turn the famous myths and legends of the �Wild West� into amazing reality.

Hello and welcome to the Dahl Family’s space,
We are a family of eleven heading down the Pan-American highway this November to Costa Rica.
You may be saying why Costa Rica?
Well because our father ( Randolph D. Dahl Sr. ) sees Costa Rica not just as a destination but as a “state of mind.”
Back when our grandfather passed away, when our father was only fourteen years old, our father’s family looked at him as a rebel and sent him away to Valley Forge Military Academy there he met his good friend Don Rodrigo Debedot a native Costa Rican.
Our father was getting to know his new friend a little better although it was difficult at times because Rodrigo spoke very little English and our father spoke no Spanish.
Our father at fourteen had no idea there was such a place as the Rich Cost. In the one year our father spent in Valley Forge he learned more and more about Rodrigo and his native country by teaching Rodrigo to speak English .The boys began to build a bond that would last for many years.
After our father left Valley Forge he had lost contact with Rodrigo but carried on through life just the same.
He met our mother, Mary K. Dahl in 1972. They were friends for three years and got married in 1975 and three years later in 1978 they had their first child, Randolph D. Dahl Jr. After Randy they had eight more children: Andrew, Chattele, Joseph, Nathaniel, Jonathan, Adolph, Katherine and then finally Mary.
Mom and Dad topped out at six boys and three girls a total of nine children.
Our father finally got back in touch with Rodrigo in the year of 1995 and went to visit him in Costa Rica
That was the first time our father has ever been to Costa Rica and where he first found his “state of mind”
Our first road trip as a family was full of photographs and unforgettable memories. It was during early spring of 1998. We traveled from our home in Pennsylvania; the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, to the sands of southern Florida beach. We traveled on through Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. In Texas we visited the Alamo then drove through New Mexico and Arizona. When in California we visited the famous Alcatraz prison and headed back toward the bright lights of Nevada to start our return trip. On our way home we traveled through Utah and Colorado and saw the many miles of wind mills throughout Kansas. After visiting Missouri we stopped for a visit in the windy city of Illinois where our trip was cut short do to the news that the first grandchild had been born on Independence Day . We excitedly rushed through Ohio back to Pennsylvania to see the new baby.
All these events are remembered as “The Road Trip Of 98″
In the year of 1999 our father was at it again, but this time he wanted the whole gang to go. At this point our family had grown from eleven to fourteen, with a new daughter -in- law and two grandbabies. Our father took us to Costa Rica which is where we finally understood the “state of mind” he had always talked about.
We stepped out of the airport to find a world full of color and excitement waiting to be discovered. Throughout all are travels it is agreed that there is NO place like Costa Rica and it is truly a quixotic utopia.
So here we are again in the year 2007 hungry for another adventure. Since the road trip of 98 was full of family bounding and Costa Rica is so full of wonder and excitement Dad thought it would be a good idea to combined the two and drive from our home on the Allegheny River in Pennsylvania to San Jose Cost Rica. We are taking a city transit bus which we converted into a comfortable coach that will take us through Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua and last but not least our “state of mind” Costa Rica. ETD thirty-seven day and counting.
Many trials and triumphs as a family will follow which is why we will be filming this trip and posting them on our website.
