Alicia - Keys to the Summer Tour: A Night Out at the Maverik Center (West Valley City, UT)


                                                                                                                             One of the most unforgettable stops on our Utah vacation had nothing to do with hiking trails or national parks. Instead, it was a father-daughter adventure centered around music, memories, and a dream that had been years in the making. While planning a weeklong trip to Moab, I discovered that Alicia Keys' Keys to the Summer Tour would be stopping at the Maverik Center in West Valley City, just outside Salt Lake City, on July 28, 2023. Egypt had been a lifelong fan of Alicia Keys, but every previous opportunity to see her perform had slipped away. When the tour skipped Sacramento, she assumed another chance had been lost.

A Day at Four Corners Monument Navajo Tribal Park

 Utah - Arizona - New Mexico - Colorado

July 2022


Egypt enjoyed standing in four states at the same time. The monument has completely changed since we took Kellisa to "sit on wheels" in four states simultaneously way back in June 2007.

Kellisa's Early Hiking Path (2000 - 2007)

Illinois Winters

Kellisa's Path to visiting and hiking in all 50 United States started slow, mostly because of her unstable medical condition. 

Kellisa drove through most of her early states to visit family in Illinois and Texas. Kellisa had her first dozen states visited before we started hiking in 2002. We didn't really start traveling with the intention to hike until 2006 when Kellisa was 7-years-old. 

Below are some of the highlights from the early years along Kellisa's Path.
