Today we headed to the "big city" of New Philadelphia, the county seat of Tuscarawas County. At a population of about seventeen thousand it's big enough to provide an array of goods and services. We enjoyed a down home lunch at Michael's Restaurant before heading...
Our home for the next three nights is TimberCrest RV Park in Walnut Creek deep in the heart of Ohio's Amish country. Adventures today included a great breakfast at Wallhouse Coffee, Red Raspberry Ice Cream at Dover Road Dari, some yummy Cold Brew Iced Coffee at New...
It's a little museum in Zanesville, Ohio with a big story to tell. Actually three big stories. This city of about twenty-five thousand people was founded in 1790s as a result of Ebenezer Zane's building of a road, Zane's Trace, connecting Wheeling WV and Maysville KY....
Today was a travel day but not too long a one. We lingered in Lebanon for a while. Gave a T@B-400 tour. Made some phone calls. Got on the road by noon. Made a couple of stops. At a rest area we found a geocache that had previously eluded us! We chose Spring Valley...
The search for the perfect shoe has yielded success! A pair of Ahnu Montara IIs have served Karen well for nearly two years of daily wear. They're waterproof but breathable, comfortable and stable. They look good enough for city streets and perform well on back...
It's just one of the Cincinnati treats we indulge in when the opportunity presents. Since our travels today took us into the neighborhood, we stopped and treated ourselves to some Graeter's Ice Cream at the historic Hyde Park Location. Toffee Chocolate Chip and Black...

When cousins suggested we meet st Maya's Indian Cuisine in Price Hill, we knew we were in for an adventure since neither of us is familiar with Indian fare. With a bit a guidance and only a tiny bit of trepidation, we chose Chicken Tikki Masala and Goat Saag...
Lebanon is an Ohio town that we'll readily admit we knew little about other than it's northeast of Cincinnati near I-71. After we arrived on Thursday we watched this Ohio Magazine video and decided that we must spend some time exploring the area. This morning we...
Just what we needed, when and where we needed it. The Skyline Chili Parlor on Delhi Pike not only promised a tasty and quick comfort food meal but delivered. With friendly service to boot. We love the Three Way Chili, spaghetti topped with a Mediterranean spiced meat...

As we sail west from San Francisco on our around the world journey we’re excited to visit locales new to us but we’re also truly enjoying the days at sea between destinations. On this segment of sea days we have crossed the Equator. We truly have sailed south into summer.
Our stop in Kailua Bay for a one day visit to the Big Island of Hawaii gave us the opportunity to take an excursion to the Punalu’u Black Sand Beach as well as Volcano House, Nāhuku Lava Tube, and Kīlauea in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park!
On our first day in Hawaii we did a tour highlighting the Hawaiian monarchy and the New England missionaries that fostered the melding of Hawaiian and European cultures. It was a great way to celebrate our first visit to the 50th State and our 50th State to visit.
