Alabama Wedding, Part Four
May 7-15 We arrived in Orange Beach late in the afternoon, after an easy ride down the interstate, turning convoluted when our Garmin sent us on city streets through Mobile for no apparent reason, somewhat paralleling the I-10 which we would pick up once we passed through downtown and emerged from one of the two […]
Alabama Wedding, Part Two
May 7-15 For our second day in Memphis we were committed to getting in a good bike ride, one with moderate distance on a safe route, giving us another type of look at the city. With a little bit of research on the web we found a greenway, the Shelby Farms Greenline that we could […]
Alabama Wedding, Part One
May 7-15 A little over a week after our return from the Cycle North Carolina beach weekend, we embarked on a week long journey to Memphis, Tennessee and Orange Beach, Alabama. The latter part of this trip had been long planned, as we were to attend the wedding of Leigh and James. Readers may recall […]
Philadelphia, Part Five
Timeline: March 18-27 Determined to see several sights our last day in Philadelphia, we were out early on our way to the first stop of the day, the Mutter Museum. Diligent sightseeing requires adequate sustenance though and so we dropped by Miel Patisserie for a late breakfast. We opted for the Le Parisien, Ham, […]
Philadelphia, Part Three
Timeline: March 18-27 We would change things up on Tuesday as Jim was leaving for home and I’d be moving to an Airbnb rental on Spruce St near 18th, just around the corner from the Monk’s Café. Having arranged for a late checkout, Jim and I pulled away from the hotel at 1pm and I […]
Atlanta 2017, Part One
Timeline: January 28-31, 2017 Not content to let grass grow underneath our feet for long, we planned a four-night trip to Atlanta the last weekend in January. We secured lodging through Airbnb in a “1930 Modern Bungalow” with our own bedroom and a private bath. We left early enough Saturday morning to make the anticipated […]
West Coast Holiday 2016, Part One
Timeline: December 25, 2016 – January 5, 2017 Upon returning home from our fall west coast trip, the days turned into weeks and those into months, as we spent time with friends, riding our bikes, hosting our nephew Dillon (with a surprise addition from sister Bev) at Thanksgiving and preparing for the Christmas holiday […]
West Coast Tour 2016 – Milwaukee – Part Two
Timeline: August 22-24 Originally, we’d hoped to get a bike ride in before heading off to be tourists, but we woke to rain that would clear later in the day. So we did other things around the house, worked on the blog, some yoga for Joanna and then with the rain slackening took off to […]
West Coast Tour 2016 – Milwaukee
Timeline: August 22-24 Kristen and Andrew’s wedding on the 20th was a highlight, bringing family together we’d not seen in a few years, and celebrating the marriage of two very nice people. The next morning, we dropped Jessica and Kris off at the airport for their flight home and returned to the house, using […]
South East Spring Swing, New Orleans #4
March 24-26 The planned activity for our last day in town would be a guided walking tour of the French Quarter and then a lazy crawl through the lower quarter and a visit to Frenchmen Street. First up though we devoured an excellent egg scramble Lyndsay put together using the remnants of her Dream Burger […]
