Copenhagen, Part Three
10/5-10/14 Our plans for an early start were sidetracked as we all slept in pretty late, given our post midnight bedtime the night before and the long tiring day that preceded it. Bev’s knock on or door roused Francois and I around 9am and within a short time, we’d showered, dressed and prepared for another […]
Copenhagen, Part Two
10/5-10/14 Maria gave Bev and I a ride to the Vedbaek train station making our trip to the Copenhagen airport simpler than if we’d walked down to the take the bus. Simone and Dillon were to meet us at the airport and while we waited for them there, we each got a bite to eat, […]
Copenhagen, Part One
10/5-10/14 This trip all started during a phone call with my sister Bev one-day last spring. She mentioned that she planned to travel to Copenhagen in the fall to spend time with her son Dillon. He has been living there since the middle of last year, and she had flown there for a night during […]
Virginia Creeper Trail, Part Two
September 4-7, 2015 We arose early enough Sunday morning to eat a good breakfast, drink a cup of coffee and take care of personal hygiene tasks before suiting up and hitting the road for the 20-minute drive back to Damascus. This time we parked on the other side of town in a public parking area […]
Virginia Creeper Trail
September 4-7, 2015 The invite came via email from Chris, the organizer, in early spring. The 10th annual Virginia Creeper Trail Campout and Bike ride was to be scheduled sometime that summer. We’d joined this group a few years back and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Emails traded hands and before too long Labor Day […]

Los Cisco’s 2015, Part One
August 2-8 The month of July would fly by as we engaged in our normal activities with one big difference. During a gathering at the Wine Vault with former colleagues at UNC Charlotte, the prospect of my returning to campus in an interim role was broached, as the Director of Parking and Transportation Services. I […]
Asheville, Part Three
July 2-5 Our call to stay at the house that Saturday night turned out to be a good one. It rained off and on for most of the evening and to the best of our knowledge the fireworks show downtown was cancelled. With a show to see the next evening, Dixie’s Tupperware Party, we didn’t […]
Asheville, Part Two
July 2-5 As we had prepared for this weekend we were looking for some options that would involve physical activity that all could participate in. When we’d visited a few years back with friends for a beer based weekend, one of the couples had gone rafting on the French Broad River. With this in mind […]
