There is a reason for keeping on top of writing while travelling: the days go almost as fast as my memory disappears! The last few days of our South Island NZ tour wrapped up with more amazing scenery and laughs from our tour mates and guides (who are now our mates). I’ll try to remember… Continue reading New Zealand: Finale (aka Part 3)

Let’s go for a drive. A very, very long drive.
After 10 sunny days in the FL Keys we began our journey home. First stop: Hutchinson Island near Jensen Beach on FL’s east coast/intracoastal waterway. Greg drove the 4 hours (217 miles) up Rt. 1 from the middle Keys past the Everglades and Miami to this manicured snowbird haven. We again met our neighbors Bev… Continue reading Let’s go for a drive.

Excitement!
Exciting news! January is over and hopefully the brutal cold we had is gone with it.

Greg… Continue reading Excitement!

This was my second time ‘racing’ in this event, and third overall triathlon. I am happy to say I finished, although my time… Continue reading YOU can do it!
On our way!!!
On our way! Or are we? Our retirement adventure begins, though we await roadside assistance halfway to our destination. After near disaster while Greg was moving last week, we hired a Uhaul trailer, stuffed to the gills ala the Jed Clampett’s of ‘Beverly Hillbillies’ fame. Yes, we are crazy, as everyone knows. Certainly we can… Continue reading On our way!!!
