The Greys moved to Altadena, California in 1920 spurred by the memory of a visit during their honeymoon. While Dolly knew of his behavior, she seemed to view it as a handicap rather than a choice, and she did not blame him for it. While his wife managed his career and raised their children, Grey often spent months away from her, fishing, writing, and spending time with his many mistresses. When they married in 1905, they moved to a farmhouse in Lackawaxen. With her help and supported in part by her inheritance, he began to focus more on his writings, publishing his first fishing story in 1902. It was there where he met Lina Roth, better known as 'Dolly', whom he would later marry. While sporadically practicing dentistry, he often visited Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania, to fish the upper Delaware River. Additionally, his brother, Romer Carl Grey, played briefly in 1903 for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

He went on to play minor league baseball with a team in Wheeling, West Virginia.

During that time, while playing baseball over the summer in Delaware, he was charged with, and quietly settled, a paternity suit, foreshadowing future womanizing behavior. He attended the University of Pennsylvania on a baseball scholarship, where he studied dentistry and joined Sigma Nu fraternity he graduated in 1896. (He would later drop his first name, and his family changed their name to Grey.) Growing up in Zanesville, a city founded by a maternal ancestor Ebenezer Zane, he developed interests in fishing, baseball and writing, all which would later contribute to his acclaim. Pearl Zane Gray was born in Zanesville, Ohio.
