LAKE SUPERIOR, MN: ONE LAKE, MANY BEACHES
The lake, according to the native Ojibwas, was called gichi-gami. I love the native languages, they are so straightforward. Gichi-gami means, ‘huge water’. And huge it is! Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world. Lake Superior has a surface area of… Continue Reading “LAKE SUPERIOR, MN: ONE LAKE, MANY BEACHES”
IN GOOD HANDS: Fredericksburg, VA
We’re in Good Hands! It was a lovely, sunny morning as we raced down I-95 from Washington D.C. towards Virginia. Lovely because it had rained the entire time that we were getting to know our Nation’s Capital, and racing because…well…it was I-95 southbound along… Continue Reading “IN GOOD HANDS: Fredericksburg, VA”

I suppose that if you have a travel partner, and you set out on a fairly significant road trip, putting some miles between your destination and home, you should probably return with said partner. Eddie and I began learning about each other’s ‘travel styles’… Continue Reading “FLIGHT RISK (Olympic Peninsula WA)”
KEEP CALM & ELTON JOHN (Savannah, GA)
Everything happens for a reason. Really. And I’ve learned never to be disappointed when things don’t go according to plan. It was in fall and we were enjoying Savannah, GA – which had been on our bucket list to visit for some time. We… Continue Reading “KEEP CALM & ELTON JOHN (Savannah, GA)”
ART, ARCHITECTURE & FLYING MONKEYS (Burlington, VT)
We crossed the New York state line with our ‘Little Guy’ trailer in tow. We were crossing the Burlington-Port Kent Bridge into Vermont right over the top of Lake Champlain. Eddie was admiring the lake (he has a little romance going on with all… Continue Reading “ART, ARCHITECTURE & FLYING MONKEYS (Burlington, VT)”
