Prairie Dogs at Devils Tower Monument

Today I share a shorts video featuring Prairie Dogs at Devils Tower Monument. You will find a short video and some fun facts about the critter and the park.  I hope you take the time to check it out and maybe consider RVing out West someday soon. Prairie Dogs at Devils Tower Monument Video This diversity of habitats are in this small space including prairie. It is hard to believe all the little hole digging critters in this space.  How cool to see their little heads pop up right outside the RV.  If my memory serves me correctly we were just pulling over to this empty parking lot to take a look at the map. This huge print on the parking lot blacktop that says “Do NOT feed The Dogs” was hard not to catch one’s attention. What?!?! There is this new feature on youtube called ‘shorts’.  It is fun creating and sharing fun little ‘shorts’ or short video clips. The video capture from my iPhone on our RT 66 trip in 2018.  I have a Sony 4K video and high-resolution images of these critters.  For this share, I just want to get the video up to show how cute they were.  I share more videos on my Bren Haas Channel located on YouTube.  I hope you consider subscribing to my channel. About the Prairie Dogs Prairie dogs look a lot like groundhogs but way cuter in my opinion.  At first glance, you will want to feed them or treat them like a puppy. Don’t even think about it!!!  These Prairie dogs carry disease and can really hurt you with a bite. Smile.. me taking photos from RV window! Devils Tower Monument Surprisingly this National Park is super easy to find when out in Wyoming.  We literally were just out that way and decided on the way home from California we would look this place up.  How could you not being a fan of “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”.   This is a location filled with history and mystery.  There are many fun things to see at the Devils Tower Monument.  Parking is somewhat limited if you come during the Summer vacation days.  We were out traveling the last days of September and luckily the weather was perfect.   Below is the address to the Monument so hopefully you can go check the Prairie Dogs out for yourself.  Be sure to allow at least a day to take in all this park has to offer for you and the kiddos.   We hope to go back soon with Oliver!

Luxury Vinyl Flooring VS Other Types of Flooring | Bren Haas

Remodeling and or new construction is one of my favorite things about being a home owner.  In this article I will share a luxury vinyl floor vs other types of flooring. The flooring of any home or business establishment is one feature that you should not neglect when building or remodeling. You must choose the right type of flooring that will suit your needs and budget. Luxury vinyl flooring is one such type that many households prefer over other types because of its many benefits, one of which is being considerably less expensive than wood, ceramic and others. But is vinyl more economical, not only during installation but in the long run as well? Installation Vinyl is very easy to install, even if you hire a flooring contractor to do the job. The labor cost for installing vinyl is not as costly as say, installing hardwood flooring. In this aspect, you can already save money. You can do the installation yourself, but it is still a wise idea to trust professional installers to do the job. You may not install the boards properly, which may incur additional expenses on your part. Cost The overall cost of vinyl floorboards is much cheaper than other types like linoleum, wood, bamboo, etc. if you are installing it in the entire house, the cost for it will be a lot less. It is suitable if you have a limited budget for your flooring, but you still want the functionality and durability that it can offer. Some boards range from only $.50 to $2, depending on their type. Nevertheless, this estimate is far cheaper than a piece of hardwood. Maintenance A clean cloth, mop, mild soap and no-wax cleaner are all you need to maintain and clean your vinyl flooring. You don’t need to spend a fortune on expensive chemical cleaners to clean this type of flooring. Warm water should be enough for easy to remove stains and mild soap for more stubborn stains. If you have a no-wax vinyl flooring, you should use an appropriate cleaner to retain the coating that provides the sheen to the floor. If you clean the floor frequently, you don’t have to worry about it deteriorating before it should. Simple cleaning techniques are all you need to keep your floor squeaky clean. Durability Vinyl floors can last anywhere from ten to twenty years, so it means that you do not have to replace them for a decade or two, which translates to savings. As long as you maintain its cleanliness and you do not allow for moisture to accumulate on the floor, it can even last for more than its intended lifetime. If you have pets at home, scratches can be inevitable. You have to take care of them right away so that they can still be treated. If you are going to install the flooring in your home or business, would you choose vinyl based on the information that you know about it? Vinyl is an excellent alternative to more expensive types, as it can also mimic the look of wood, minus the cost.
