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 […]
New Zealand/Australia 2024 – Auckland, Part One
December 28, 2023 – January 1, 2024 The Christmas holiday arrived, and we hosted this year as there would be a very short turnaround between the 25th and our flight to Auckland on the 28th. I met with my eye surgeon on the 27th who confirmed that the blood was clearing out and all looked […]
KC Wedding – Corpus Christi
April 15-17 We left New Braunfels with an expected three hour drive that would take an additional hour due to construction related congestion as we passed through San Antonio. But we arrived safely at Stephanie and Lee’s place, where I’d spent two nights last fall while Joanna settled her mother, so it was nice that […]
ACA Idaho Trails Relaxed, Part Three
June 24 – July 26, 2021 We took off for the three-hour drive to Gold Beach along highway 199, passing through numerous small towns and lush forest until hitting the coast and what would begin a week of spectacular and unique vistas that never fail to amaze. We stopped once at a viewpoint that involved […]
North Carolina Spring 2021, Part Five
June 3 – 14, 2021 Our drive to Greensboro (Summerfield) to Ann and Rendy’s would only take about ninety minutes, so again we had no need to hurry that Tuesday morning. This gave us a chance to do a load of laundry (one advantage of staying in an Airbnb unit is often some form of […]
Lockdown 2021, Part Two
December 2020 – January 2021 We parked the car in the dirt lot outside of the gift shop and hiking poles in hand, hit the trail for what would turn out to be an easy four-mile hike through various types of landscape. The first part of the walk took us past a couple of abandoned […]
October Weekends, Part Two
October 16 – 18,2020 Less than a week later we found ourselves driving up to Buellton on Friday for a weekend of bike riding with a group of our riding friends in Los Angeles. Five of us (Heather, Deborah, Cathy, Joanna and myself) met up in the parking lot of Pea Soup Anderson’s Inn before […]
Mexico: Oaxaca – Part Five
November 23 – 27 We left Café Brujula and walked a couple of blocks to Porfirio Diaz to Espacio Zapata, a workshop and gallery founded by the art collective Asaro (Assemblea de Artistas Revolucionarios de Oaxaca) in 2006. A great deal of the imagery here is related to death and day of the dead, but […]
Mexico: Oaxaca – Part Two
November 23 – 27 Breakfast the next morning would become a reassuring and filling habit, a small buffet of fruit, muffins, bread, cereal, yoghurt and various things to drink. You’d fill your plate and sit at one of the tables on the rooftop, the sounds of a waking city bubbling up from the street below. […]
Mexico: Mexico City – Part Seven
November 19 – 22 Ascending from the Metro station at Insurgentes, we walked back towards the hotel on the bustling Calle Genova, crowds of folks just off work sitting at the outdoor patios of the bars lining the street, enjoying the end of the day. We decided to stop in at Aventura as we’d noticed […]
