KC Wedding – The Road Home

May 17 – 23 The car repaired and a good night’s sleep behind us, we set out on the first of what would be three long days of driving, much of it along a route we’d not traveled before.  That first day would take over nine hours and land us in Cheyenne, Wyoming where would […]

KC Wedding – Adventure Cycling Texas Hill Country, Part One

April 5 – 14 And so, spring rolled around, and we began nearly three months of travel, two in the States and one in Europe.  First up would be the road trip, which we will break down into segments that will culminate with our nephew Dillon’s wedding on May 14th in Kansas City.  The first […]

East Coast Fall 2021 – Henderson and Home

November 22-26 We broke camp Monday morning to make the drive to Kim and Marty’s in Henderson, where we would stay until Friday and celebrate Thanksgiving with them and a household of others, an event they have held annually and are now resuming after taking a Covid break the last two years.  This would be […]

ACA Idaho Trails Relaxed, Part Fourteen

June 24 – July 26, 2021 The next morning, we arose early, packed up and drove over to the Nevada Northern Railway Museum situated at the East Ely Yards.  They were designated a National Historic Landmark District in 2006 and the site was cited as one of the best-preserved early 20th-century railroad yards in the […]

Hot Springs 2021, Part Five

May 13 – 24, 2021 Our next day in Henderson would be a full one, starting with dropping off the BMW at the dealer to replace a burned-out driving light.  Leaving it until later in the day, we all made our way to one of the highlights of the weekend, Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart. It […]

Hot Springs 2021, Part Four

May 13 – 24, 2021 It was much cooler the next day and after lingering on the front porch for a good stretch of the morning we donned swimsuits and walked over to the large pool, nicely warmed due to ambient temperature and its adjacent small pools that were a touch warmer.  Sufficiently cooled down […]

Arizona Sojourn, Part Seven

September 9 – 20, 2020 With temperatures forecast for the day to push past the 100-degree mark, we met early at one of the trailheads for the River Mountains Loop Trail.  And as it turned out, it wasn’t nearly early enough.  We set out to do the 34.4-mile loop in the counter-clockwise direction, our choice […]

Arizona Sojourn, Part Six

September 9 – 20, 2020 We landed in Henderson at Kim and Marty’s for three nights before we would return home for one day to take care of doctor’s appointments, then meet them at their condo in Solano Beach.  Nothing earth shattering would occur while at either place and yet, we’d engage in enough safe […]

The Move, Part Four

May 1 – June 10 Up early Monday morning we loaded the cars and hit the road for Nashville, our first stop of the trip, after bidding farewell to Ann and Rendy and of course, Joanna who I would see in about a week.  We’d planned out the adventure so that no day of driving […]

West Coast Spring 2018 – Henderson, Part Two

June 3 -6 The plan for Monday was to hang out in the morning, then head into downtown Las Vegas to tour the Mob Museum, grab a bite to eat and make it to my doctor’s appointment at 4pm.  We’ve made a habit of visiting museums such as this one (Spy in Washington, East German […]
