Good morning, dear family, friends and other precious readers. It’s December 7, 2024. In the past 20 days, we have visited with 15 family members, visited two more National Parks and a National Seashore (that makes 39 parks and 6 other national sites) enjoyed a lovely Thanksgiving, left the Biloxi casinos with more money than…

Chapter 17 – Texas, Austin and Waco
Hello again, dear readers. What a fantastic visit to central Texas have we enjoyed! We have always driven through Texas with a single minded focus on getting through this massive state as fast as possible. How pleasant it is to get off the interstate and explore the back roads! We started off enjoying the special…

Chapter 16 – New Mexico and West Texas
Good day, dear readers! Lady Wanderingwise is happy to say we have officially left the “west”. We parked our home in the lovely Pecan Valley RV Park in Junction, TX. We landed here after a planned long day of driving, at 6.5 hours, which is slightly more than we like. Too much “butt in chair”…

Chapter 15 – Arizona, more than a quick visit
Hello dear readers, I, Lady Wanderingwise, am so happy to be back on the keyboard! Last month was such an education for us on both, maintaining a good relationship with your health network, and also how fabulous the friends we made in Arizona are. Our primary reason for spending the month in Arizona was medical.…

Chapter 13 – Alaska Marine Highway
Dear readers, we have made it back to the Lower 48! And what a great way to make it back. Was it long? Why, yes, yes it was. Was it tough to be “old school” and find your entertainment without the benefit of internet? Why yes, yes it was. But all in all, we were…

Chapter 12 – Alaska, McCarthy to Haines
Hello dear readers. I find myself a little sad as I write this, as our Alaska adventures are coming to a close. We have been slowing down here in Haines, as we wait to depart on the ferry tomorrow night. The weather has been more than a little sketchy and rainy, and the options here…

Chapter 11 – Alaska, Seward to Valdez
Hello dear readers! We watch the “lower 48” weather reports and find it hard to believe we are in the same world! This past week has been such a mix of rain, sun, wind, and clouds that its going to be a rude and painful shock coming back down south! We do try to embrace…

Chapter 10 – Alaska, Homer
We have certainly made up for a week of watching it rain. We left Kenai on Monday and took as leisurely of a route as we could, given that Homer is only a two hour drive. Its actually such a fun way to do things, we explored several coastal areas not on a regular tourist…

Chapter 9 – Alaska – Kenai
Oh my dear readers, we had been looking forward to the cooler temperatures that coming with being this far north. But I don’t think we were quite prepared for what it would be like if fall rain came along with the cooler temps. This past week has been one of the most normal (slower?) weeks…
