New Years Day found us settling in at Buccaneer State Park on the Mississippi Gulf Shore. We unpacked from our New Orleans adventure and organized ourselves for the next two weeks of T@B living. We feasted on alligator and shrimp at Da' Kitchen. Don't know if that...

Road Trip
Hello 2016!
Happy New Year! In lieu of resolutions we just live New Years Day the way we want to live the whole year. So far today we've had coffee and beignets at Cafe du Monde, found a geocache, spent time with friends, made a new friend, and headed out with the camper...
Good Bye 2015
After a bit of an interlude, Ben & Lynda and the two of us reconvened for our New Years Eve festivities. After Mass at the amazingly beautiful Jesuit Church of the Immaculate Conception, we wandered through the incredibly decorated lobby of the...
Who Needs a Tour Guide?
Over breakfast today Ben started asking questions about Geocaching. Next thing we knew the three of us had embarked upon a tour of the area guided by geocaches. We explored areas that had once been frequented by pirates, that boasted incredible burgers and friendly...
And Now We Are Four
We started the visit as eleven of us on Friday but gradually folks have had to head home. First Peter and Patrick left to drive back to Atlanta. Then Laura and Mason returned to Providence. Early this afternoon Linus, Rachel, and Greg left for their flight to Boston....
To Cabrini and Back
Five of us ventured out this afternoon in search of adventures. Linus tolerated a stop by The Quarter Stitch, a yarn shop, while Mama, Dada, and Nana picked out a pattern and yarn for a hand knit sweater for him and Grandpop chose a yarn for a handwoven scarf. We did...
Satchmo Lived Here
One of the delights of this trip is to spend some one on one time with Greg. We three slipped over to Daisy Dukes, two doors from our hotel, for a big breakfast and some quiet visiting time. After cleaning our plates we ventured out for a walk around the quarter and...
The Avenger
Six of us ventured out in search of breakfast and absolutely scored at Mother's. Afterwards Laura & Mason and the two of us headed to The National World War II Museum. For hours we immersed ourselves in history of this global conflict from many different angles....
Bucket List Item!
One of us enjoyed Bananas Foster at Brennan's back in the early 80's and the other has had the experience on the Bucket List ever since. Today we topped off our fabulous breakfast with this amazing flambé dessert, shared with everyone at the table.
Brunch at Brennan’s
We're being wrapped in Brennan's traditions. We're wearing holiday bells on salmon colored ribbons, drinking yummy cocktails while we await some incredible culinary breakfast concoctions.
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

LATEST
Observing the Solstice
It’s a rare treat for us to be celebrating Midsummer here on our mountainside enjoying cool misty mornings, sunny afternoons, pleasant evenings, oh yeah, and a fair number of rain showers. But then again that helps explain these lush green woods. The rhododendron are...
Remembering Alaska
Fourteen years ago today after three years of planning, forty-four friends embarked on a two week adventure to the Land of the Midnight Sun, just in time for the Summer Solstice. From Fairbanks and Denali to Ketchican and the Inside Passage we had one fabulous...
