Let’s start with the worst news first. 1: My sister passed away May 7th after a long illness at the age of 60. Hopefully she’s now found the peace that evaded her in life. I’ll be doing a post later on just how sadly…
So, I FINALLY made it to Big Stone Gap, Virginia where I’ll be spending the next 2-3 months. It’s a lovely area surrounded by forested hills and the temperatures range from 30’s – 40’s at night and 60’s – 70’s during the day –…
So this is my second to last day in New Hampshire. While I haven’t been able to do as much exploring as I normally would due to Covid-19 restrictions, it’s been a fantastic summer (albeit a few too many 90 degree days with 100%…
On April 1st, 2020 I left Tucson, AZ and drove as fast as I could to Bridgewater, NH; my home base until November. The total trip was around 2700 miles – which I accomplished in 5 days, driving 12 + hour days and only…
I decided to check off “Trees of Mystery” from my list of places I wanted to see before I left Oregon. I’ve passed this place multiple times back in 2013 when I stayed in Brookings, Oregon and always thought it looked too much like…
So, in all the time that I’ve been here in Port Orford, I never took a tour of the lighthouse or the Huges House located in the state park. It took the visit of a vacationing friend to get me inside! Here’s a bit…
I know, I know… I’ve been slacking in exploring new places but work has kept me glued to my desk! (Grrr…) Here’s a few new pictures – and a video I took of Teddy – Warning: It’s very “cute”. lol Barklow Mountain West Hike:…
SOOOOO…. I am BACK in Port Orford, Oregon for the summer. I’d planned on going to the east coast this summer but, just in case I was needed by my sister in Tucson, the distance from here is definitely more doable. (Making the 5200+…
Well, it’s been a long while since I posted anything new here so I thought I’d better add something to help some of you stop wondering if I was alive or not. lol! I HAD planned to stay up in the White Mountains of…
So, I thought I’d just let folks know I was still alive and kicking! Summer in NH has been cold, hot, cool, hot, warm, hot and it’s continuing to not follow any particular weather pattern, which is typical for New England. I’ve mostly been…
Here’s a quickie! This was a beautiful hike that I took with Teddy after I gave him a bath at the “self dog wash” place down in Gold Beach – which is about 30 minutes south of here. It’s an approximately 2.5 miles out…
Well, it’s been wetter and windier than normal here on the coast of Oregon but summer is finally getting here! I’ve been pretty busy with work so I don’t have any new places to show (yet) but thought I’d share a few pictures of…
