East Coast Fall 2024, Lafayette
October18- 20, 2024 Our short four-hour drive to Lafayette went smoothly and we arrived at check-in time at Paz’s place Airbnb. We’ve had good luck with Airbnb in rarely having booking’s cancelled (only once before I memory) but this trip brought us two, the first in Amelia Island and now here in Lafayette. About a […]
East Coast Fall 2024, Spanish Fort/Mobile, Part Two
October18- 20, 2024 As mentioned in the last post, we had one last stop on the agenda for the day, and that was at the Oakleigh House, the centerpiece of the Oakleigh Historic Complex, a grouping of buildings that contain a working-class raised cottage, Union Barracks, and a modern archives building. The name for the […]
East Coast Fall 2024, Fernandina Beach
October15- 17, 2024 After our bike ride, we cleaned up, packed and hit the breakfast room and then made our way the short hour down to St. Mary’s, Georgia for three nights at Brittany’s Place Airbnb which we’d booked after our initial lodging choice, closer to Amelia Island, had to cancel due to flooding from […]
East Coast Fall 2024, Gettysburg and New Jersey, Part Two
September 20 – 24, 2024 After our long day out at Gettysburg our next one would be low key, centered on getting a bike ride in on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal (C&O) and exploring the area around the Airbnb. It had rained overnight so we waited a bit for the pavement to dry before […]
East Coast Fall 2024, Gettysburg and New Jersey, Part One
September 20 – 22 2024 After breakfast with Doug, we hit the road for our three night stay in Sharpsburg at Jennifer’s Place Airbnb (The River Bend Retreat ~ C&O Canal ~ Antietam), located in an ideal spot just yards away from the Potomac River and the C&O Canal. It’s a large and spacious two-bedroom […]
East Coast Fall 2024, KC and Ohio
September 14 – 19 2024 As mentioned earlier, our drive to Kansas City would take about ten hours but would be a bit easier with three drivers as Doug would be with us all the way back to his house in Ohio. We arrived in the late afternoon, losing another hour due to a time […]
East Coast Fall 2024, Cisco Fest, Part Two
August 29 – September 14, 2024 It would take us two days to drive to our next destination, Spearfish, and we split it almost evenly with an overnight stop in Green River, Wyoming. Our lodging that night, the best deal we could find in this small town was at the Little Bear Motel for $119 […]
West Coast Spring 2024, Part Four
April 26 – May 13, 2024 Our first order of business the next day was to climb on our bikes and get a ride in on the Tucson Loop (Huckelberry Bike Path), a network of shared-use paths, maintained by Pima County, that when completed will comprise 131 miles of paved trails dedicated to cyclist, pedestrian, […]
West Coast Spring 2024, Part Three
April 26 – May 13, 2024 With a day to fill and not able to do much physically, we got creative. Our first stop would be at the Riordan Mansion State Historic Park. This park features the duplex home of Timothy and Michael Riordan, lumber baron brothers who married sisters, Caroline and Elizabeth Metz. The […]
West Coast Spring 2024, Part Two
April 26 – May 13, 2024 Our last day in Zion would be a simple one, that is we would get on our bikes and ride up the canyon to the end. We took off in the late morning and rode into the park, a gradual climb of about 500 feet that was easy to […]
