Blast from the Past

Family

Back in 1966 Stan, Danny, Steve, and their adult leader, Jim backpacked a portion of the Appalachian Trail. The following year Karen did the same on a nearby portion of the trail with members of her family. On their honeymoon Stan and Elaine did a day hike on the trail. Through the years all of us have hiked on portions of the AT and other trails in the Smokies. In June the two of us joined Stan and two of his daughters for a hike commemorating the 1966 hike. Today we received a package from Stan and Elaine with photos from the original trip and the commemorative hike along with custom coffee mugs sporting those photos!  

And as a celebration of our current passion, they sent a red truck pulling a teardrop salt and pepper set!

Cape Town: African Wildlife Adventures

With a UNESCO World Heritage Site, two national parks, dozens of museums, and hundreds of tours offered in the Cape Town area there is more than plenty to do. For our two day visit we opted to concentrate on African wildlife visiting the Aquila Private Game Reserve and the Boulders Beach Penguin Colony for a wonderful chance to these fabulous animals in their own habitat.
