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 Five
April 27 – May 9 We left Tuscumbia with a moderate seven-hour day ahead of us that would get us more than halfway to Galveston and our date with orthopedic destiny. Our stop that night would be at the SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western in Hammond, Louisiana, the chain’s budget level offering in their […]
KC Wedding – Galveston, Part Three
April 20-26 Joanna was feeling spry the morning after our day out and decided to walk over to another nearby bakery, Sunflower (we’d eat breakfast there later in the trip), returning with a something good to eat, although in retrospect not quite as tasty as what we’d consumed from PattyCakes. Our goal for the day, […]
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 – 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 […]
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 […]
