As we begin a new chapter in our lives some have asked that we begin a blog to keep interested ones informed of our whereabouts and activities. As the time to actually take off approached our seven-year-old grandson told us to have a good time on our adventure. Thus, our title "The Great Keen Adventure" was born. As you peruse the site it is our hope that you will be blessed with what we have to share and where we have been. God bless you!

Day 372
Iowa to Illinois Link
We finally made it to Illinois. Unfortunately our RV park is nearly three hours away from Chicago. We'll still go. It's just that those will be long days with the travel time.

Day 357
Wow! What a day we have had! After nearly colliding with a deer just a few miles from our campground, we safely made it to Yellowstone National Park. The sights we have seen are just beyond description. We taxed ourselves with a little hike to get to an observation point on the mountain for a different perspective on Old Faithful. Even though it wore us out and I suffered with pain in my leg, it was worth it. The view was amazing! The earliest we could get a dinner reservation at the Old Faithful Inn was 9 p.m. and the dinner was disappointing. However, our room was quiet and restful. Enjoy the slideshow. There are 227 pictures.
