 A Scenic Byway Route to Bryce Canyon National Park

Bears Ears and Natural Bridges National Monuments

 Bears Ears and Natural Bridges National Monuments

This park turned out to be a gem. Unlike Yellowstone with 3.3 million visitors a year or Arches with 1.5 million visitors per year, Natural Bridges gets ~100,000 and most of them had evidently already visited because it wasn’t very busy at all.

Just a Little Further

Hi there and welcome to Just A Little Further!

We are David and Marcie Lynn and we've lived aboard our Liberty 458 cutter-rigged sailboat since 2000.

What began as an urge to travel slowly and economically at our own pace ended up an adventure of a lifetime.  

Well, here we are ... nearly 90,000 miles under the keel, 5 continents, 5 Great Southern Capes, 36 countries and almost two decades later, still taking one passage at a time and going just a little further.
