KC Wedding – Natchez Trace, Part Six
April 29 – May 4 We left downtown with no other touristy motive than to drive around a bit and as we ascended the onramp to the freeway noticed a bridge in the near distance that caught our attention. We steered the car in that direction and after some circling, found a parking lot that […]
KC Wedding – Natchez Trace, Part Three
April 27 – May 9 On the way to the entrance to the Trace we stopped, as mentioned in the prior post, for a couple of really, really good donuts at The Donut Shop Café, a combo donut shop and small café serving breakfast items. We polished off two of those bad boys plus kept […]
KC Wedding – Natchez Trace, Part Two
April 27 – May 9 For our one full day in Jackson, we’d originally planned to tour the state capital building but soon discovered that it being Saturday, that option was out as the facility was closed. Instead, we started with, and spent a full morning at, the Mississippi Ag and Forestry Museum, a 39-acre […]
KC Wedding – Natchez Trace, Part One
April 29 – May 9 Today we’d be heading up to Jackson, Mississippi for a couple of nights and I would ride a section of the Natchez Trace on my bike while Joanna followed in the car. The Trace is a historic forest trail which extends roughly 440 miles from Nashville, Tennessee, to Natchez, Mississippi, […]
KC Wedding – Galveston, Part Two
April 20-26 Now knowing we would be staying in Galveston through the following Tuesday, we spent most of the next day, Friday, running some errands around town to pick up food to cook and some accessories to assist Joanna with that big cast she had on her right arm. While out driving around later in […]
KC Wedding – Galveston, Part One
April 20-26 We had a relatively easy four-hour drive to Galveston from San Antonio, arriving at our Airbnb at the check-in time of 3pm. Located on a quiet street, the Del Boca Vista property is a Texas Historical House, the George and Elizabeth Fox House built in 1875. Our lodging would be a two-bedroom apartment […]
KC Wedding – San Antonio
April 18-19 The easy drive north got us to Jessie and Dave’s place just after noon and we settled in for what would be a fairly quiet two nights and one day as Jessie would be working while we were there. Dinner that first night would be excellent burgers Dave grilled for us, which was […]
KC Wedding – Adventure Cycling Texas Hill Country, Part Four
April 5 – 14 The next morning, we broke camp and set out for the shortest and what appeared to be the easiest day of the tour at 41 miles and 1,600 feet of climbing that turned into 45 miles and 1,932 due to a detour we would take. For our last couple of days, […]
KC Wedding – Adventure Cycling Texas Hill Country, Part Three
April 5 – 14 The next day at Jellystone we would be free to do what we wanted as there wasn’t a scheduled ride, just three optional ones for those looking for miles or to do some exploring. Otherwise, you could hang out in camp, or take a shuttle into nearby Fredericksburg. Joanna took off […]
KC Wedding – Adventure Cycling Texas Hill Country, Part Two
April 5 – 14 Each day of the bike tour starts out the same, that is arise earlier than one might want to, begin to break down the sleeping bags and pads, get some breakfast, and pack everything up to get it on the luggage truck in time to leave camp around 8am. Joanna and […]
