Today's adventure was the triggered by reading an article listing the best museum in every state. It was pretty cool that we've visited around a dozen of these gems but even cooler that we were but a few miles from Nebraska's entry, The Archway Museum at Kearney...
A couple of glasses of English Mild Ale, a Meat & Cheese Platter followed by some Famous Chicken Salad was all we needed for a most delightful afternoon repast. With an opportunity for lively conversation with Lori, we were all set. By closing time we’d also...
As we were making our way from Bailey Yard to Lexington along US-30, we were closely paralleling I-80. Then as we passed through the little town of Cozad, Nebraska we experienced one of the joys of off-interstate driving. We saw an interesting roadside historic area...
It's a dream for a Ferroequinologist (Train Enthusiast/Student of the Iron Horse). We learned about The Golden Spike Tower through Harvest Hosts and although we didn't opt for an overnight stay here we did visit one of the most exciting train locations we could...

After yesterday's adventures along blue highways, we overnighted at the Laramie KOA and headed out this morning along the interstate highway with no particular plans until we approached Cheyenne, Wyoming and noticed a brown sign. Next thing we knew we were parked on...
On previous trips to Wyoming we have been delighted by the sight of pronghorn antelope cavorting on the Great Plains particularly in our September trips in 1973 and in 2008. This trip we were looking and hoping to capture an image of Antilocapra Americana, one of the...

See Park Video On our previous visits to Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming, we've coupled it with a trip to Yellowstone and we've spent a lot of time driving from place to place within the park. Trying to see as much as possible we've focused on the Teton Park...
Our desire to explore won out. After a morning in the campground we headed out. This afternoon Docent Lisa greeted us in the living room of the Mardy & Olaus Murie House, part of The Murie Ranch, an enclave within Grand Teton National Park. Although we had not...

What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
