How in the world did Louisa May Alcott walk this in a hoop skirt? Or how did Hawthorne, Emerson, and Thoreau walk these woods in cravats in the summer? Seriously – the humidity people, I can’t even describe it. (But I did just get back from Phoenix.) And this is really mild for summer in [...]

For the holiday weekend, my parents and I went to see a sheep herding competition.  Weird.  But cool. Anyways, while we were driving out into the middle of nowhere in Oregon, we passed this old, red covered bridge.  I fell in love.  And I remembered the movie The Bridges of Madison County and I remembered [...]

Did you know that Casper, Wyoming is the breaking off point for all the pioneer trails?  Honestly, I didn’t either until I went there last week.  Christi and I went to the Pioneer Trails Interpretive Center in Casper and then on the way home we stopped at Independence Rock and Martin’s Cove.  I loved it!

City of Rocks

When I went to Malta, Idaho a few weeks ago I asked my cousins to take me to the City of Rocks, which is only 30 minutes from there. Here is the city of rocks from google maps – an aerial view. My cousin, Danielle, worked there last summer and showed me the ins and [...]

More Pictures

April 28, 2008

We stayed at the Sheraton Hotel in San Juan after the cruise. And let me just say, it is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! I loved the pillows too! These are our table friends from the cruise, Hazel and Poonum. People usually hate the fact that cruises force you to eat [...]

Cappucine Monks

July 21, 2007

WARNING!!!! This post is not for the faint of heart and it does contain some graphic images.      One of the oddest things I saw while I was in Europe was the Cappucine Monks. The bones in the six-room crypt represent over 4,000 individual monks. It is said monks fled the French Revolution (1793-94) [...]

Perfect Paris

July 18, 2007

Before I talk about Paris . . . We went to Switzerland (or the real name of the country is Confederate Helvitica) and went up to the highest observation in the world – over 11,500 feet. Whew! Have you heard of altitude sickness, yeah I got a little bit of that, but it was still [...]

Bonjiorno! I have spent the last little while in Italy. We stayed two nights in Venicia. I just love Venice. I was so excited because we took a ferry ride over to Venice. Instead of checking off our to do lists, Melissa and I got lost and wandered all over Venice. We got far enough [...]

Prague and Austria

July 5, 2007

Here is a little update. Sorry, no pictures again. I can’t even find the USB port or the hard drive. Oh well. . . . Prague to me is like a larger Las Vegas. Okay, so you have old buildings, instead of mega casino’s, but . . . There are way too many overpriced shops [...]

40 miles in 4 days

June 29, 2007

So, I have kept a pedometer on me (I know, geeky. But . . . ) and I have walked about 40 miles in my first four days of Europe. I spent the second day in England, in Cambridge. We walked all over, took a canal cruise, and I ate at a vegitarian place. Not [...]

First Day in London

June 26, 2007

Here are some pictures from my first day! For you Harry Potter Fans, I don’t need to explain this. Feeding the pigeons at Trafalgar Square. Have you seen Mary Poppins? “Feed the birds, feed the birds.” It was really cool, but scary, as well. But pigeons are the dirtiest birds in the world. Westminster Abbey [...]
