Do you know the way to San Jose? While poking around in gift shops on Tuesday we found a postcard of the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California which both Meg and Steve had heard about so we opted to drive down early Wednesday morning. It's a fascinating 160...

San Francisco!
See List of Maritime Historical Park Video See Last of the Lumber Schooners Video Finally a nice day! Not exactly sunny but at least not raining. We drove a couple of miles to Redwood City and took CalTrain up to San Francisco. We walked, rode the cable car, ate at...
Evening in Albuquerque
We started the day with an uphill four mile walk to the El Dorado Agora and rewarded ourselves with a cup of excellent tea at Las Chivas Coffeeshop. Lou met us there and we sat and talked for a while before heading back to the house and doing a very quick job of...
Winter Wonderland
We awakened on Saturday morning to a bright and glorious day with snow all around. We had planned to hike but none of us - Floridian or New Mexican - had proper footwear so we whiled away the day watching the snow melt,...
Arrival in Albuquerque
Ryan and his friend Cameron met us at Albuquerque Sunport and whisked us away to the Flying Star, a fun cafe where at least one of us indulged in a Green Chile Cheeseburger - Yes! We are in New Mexico! Jana...
From Vancouver to Home
Our Alaska Video Our long anticipated adventure is finally winding to a close. We awakened Saturday morning to sunrise over Vancouver. We said goodbye to our home for the past week, and to Michael's Club - we'll miss them and they assure us they will miss us,...
Cruising the Beautiful Inside Passage
Today was less hectic. It was a day at sea. We relaxed a bit. Some of us took a couples massage class. One of the things we learned as we took our turn at giving our spouse a massage, is that we are not so limber as we used to be! The scenery as we cruised...
Ketchican
Yet another wonderful day. Ketchican. It's a tiny village perched at the base on mountains right at water's edge. It's accessible only by water or air and is one of the obligatory ports of call for cruise ships. Since we did not have a shore excursion booked and...
Formal Night II a.k.a. Fun Night
We all dressed up for a second formal night and enjoyed a wonderful dinner. You should have seen the production of trying to get all of us to cooperate for a photo! Somehow during dinner the story spread that Steve & Karen and Ed had been booted out of Michael's...
Awesome Wildlife of Icy Strait
It was a wonderfully exciting day in Hoonah, Alaska. Despite the rain, we saw lots of wildlife both marine and aerial from the whale watching boat. Loved the hospitality of the local people as they shared a little of their culture with us. At the Wild Alaska Cooking...

OUR VERY
LATEST
Charred Oak Tavern
After a delightful overnight in Connecticut where we joined friends Lynda & Ben for dinner and again for breakfast, we headed east on US-44. Ultimately we landed in Middleboro, Massachusetts and in need of some good sustenance. Luckily we chose Charred Oak Tavern,...
Lunch at Lower Mills Tavern
As one last treat before leaving the Boston area behind, we enjoyed lunch with Rachel at the Lower Mills Tavern, a delightful eatery and so much more. On a previous visit in the company of Greg, we sampled some great libations, and hopefully on a future visit we...
Countdown to December
This morning as we were hugging the boys and talking about our next planned visit, we also tried to get a photo of Linus and Miles with Nana and Grandpop. Too many wiggles. What we ultimately got was a delightful selfie of everyone being silly. Then hugs and promises...
