RV Trip Part 2 – the Tetons

This post is about the second part of our RV vacation with friends in August. I wrote about the first eight days in Yellowstone National Park here. This all seems like ages ago now. After leaving our campsite near West Yellowstone, we drove south to the Tetons for four nights. Two of the four couplesContinue reading “RV Trip Part 2 – the Tetons”

RV Trip Part 1 – Yellowstone

In August we went on a two week Yellowstone and Tetons RV vacation with friends. We had a great time, and it would not be surprising if we do another group trip. With that said, this trip was not my idea. Wayne and his friends came up with the plan to meet at Yellowstone. IContinue reading “RV Trip Part 1 – Yellowstone”

Seattle Friend’s Trip

I recently returned from a fun vacation to the Seattle area with three high school friends. Sadly, a fourth friend had to cancel at the last minute. Some people have no connections with high school friends, but I have kept up with several for 50 years now. We have also traveled together to Savannah, NewContinue reading “Seattle Friend’s Trip”

Scotland Part 2 – Outlander Tour & Sites

I am a big fan of the Outlander books by Diana Gabaldon, as well as the TV series adapted from the books. It is a saga involving romance, action, drama, history, and time travel, with a strong female character. The basic premise is that Claire, a British WWII combat nurse who is on vacation withContinue reading “Scotland Part 2 – Outlander Tour & Sites”

Scotland Part 1 – Glasgow

Three weeks after returning from a Danube River cruise trip this summer, we set off for Scotland. It is unheard of for us to go on two big trips back to back. We did not intend for this to happen, but sometimes you have to say Yes. The river cruise trip had already been plannedContinue reading “Scotland Part 1 – Glasgow”
