Today marked the end of our very first workamping season!! We’ve had the incredible opportunity to call Teton Cabins our home for the last 6 months. What an unforgettable journey it’s been. When we pulled into Moran, WY on April 21st, we were two newbies stepping into a brand-new chapter — ready to learn, explore, and trust that God had placed us here for a reason. Looking back now, it’s incredible to see just how much this place has shaped us. As the months unfolded, so did countless blessings: breathtaking hikes beneath the Tetons, crisp mountain mornings, and friendships that quickly began to feel like family.

From the moment we arrived, the Grand Tetons surrounded us with beauty and peace that words can hardly capture. Every hike, every sunrise, every quiet evening reminded us that we were exactly where we were meant to be. One of our favorite memories was a last-minute decision to hike Paintbrush Canyon. What started as a spontaneous adventure turned into an unforgettable one — especially when we found ourselves trudging through boulder fields and over water crossings! We took in the views, and even FaceTimed our parents from the highest point we could reach before the trail disappeared under two feet of snow….at the end of June! Moments like that — unexpected, challenging, and breathtaking — are the ones we’ll treasure forever.

There were so many “firsts” this season, too. On my birthday, we saddled up for an amazing horseback ride with the majestic Tetons rising in the distance. It felt like something out of a dream — just us, the horses, the wide-open meadows, and God’s glory painted across the sky. And not long after, we got to experience our very first rodeo in Dubois with our new friends. Between cheering on the riders, laughing until our sides hurt, and soaking in the small-town magic, it was the perfect snapshot of Wyoming life.

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the incredible people we worked alongside. A special shoutout goes to our General Manager, Glenda, and our Operations Manager, Byron — a fellow husband-and-wife workamping duo! Thank you both for taking a chance on us — for trusting us, guiding us, and welcoming us into your team with open arms. Your leadership, patience, humor, and friendship made this experience even richer. You showed us what it looks like to lead with integrity, compassion, and joy — and we’ll carry that with us wherever we go. We’re truly honored to call you our friends.
Tomorrow, we’ll hit the highway — our little home on wheels heading west toward Las Vegas for a quick stop before we start making our way east to Tennessee for the winter. It’s bittersweet to say goodbye, but we leave here filled with gratitude for every person, every lesson, and every adventure God blessed us with in this wild and beautiful place.
This season reminded us that His plans are always perfect — even when they stretch us, surprise us, or lead us somewhere completely new. The Tetons will forever be part of our story, a backdrop to a season of growth, laughter, faith, and friendship.

Here’s to new roads, new adventures, and continuing to follow wherever He leads. 🚐✨
I’ll close with a verse that God has been putting on my heart.
Isaiah 58:11 NKJV
“The Lord will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and strengthen your bones; you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.”
Until next time…..keep joy in your mind and in your heart❣️
With love and gratitude,
Ali 🫶🏼✌🏼
