I spent the better part of the afternoon of the 16th resting as I had just had my appendix removed on the 11th of Sept.  I'll be a bit slow and can't pick up anything heavy on this trip but other than that I'm raring to go! As I was recuperating, Mark was out doing the shopping.  We hadn'…

It's my 4th time around...

My original plan was to get to Dover, but it was getting extremely late, so I settled for Wilmington, home to the credit card companies that put loan sharks out of business. This little late night drive took me through two states I had never been through before. Maybe next time I'll be able to…

From the time we got up too early in the morning in Delaware until the time we laid our heads on the pillow in Lannion, 36 hours had passed without the hint of a nap.  But I digress to the highlights of our first full day en L'Hexagonne. We arrived in Paris at 0747 on Sunday morning.  I …

Knowing that it helps me to stop and stretch my legs on any car ride over two hours, I opened my handy AAA TourBook and looked for an attraction along my route that was either free or cheap that could give me a 15-30 minute break.  The Elsie Williams Doll Collection in the library of the Delaw…

We had been hearing quite a few good comments from fellow shoppers about Scrapbooking & More, so we looked forward to this visit.  When we pulled up (in yet another plaza), we were surprised by its size; after all the mention of how much it carried, we had expected something bigger.  …

I deployed 30 days to Kigali for Operation Support Hope

It started innocently enough; I visited Juneau, Alaska in June 1993 and explored the State Capitol building. A few months later, It was Montgomery, Alabama's. In the course of time, it became a hobby. Near the end it became a bit of an obsession. Then, in August of 2006, I visited my 50th US State Capitol building in Pierre, SD. (Yeh!) Yes, I know, I'm a geography nerd.... All entries are maintained in on the 'first visit' date.

Steph and Mikes new house in tree lined suburbia is very nice.  Quite a change from the modern Phoenix abode they left.  Although the fireflies are gone, there are a plethora of squirrels!

Passing through Delaware could have been done without even knowing it had I not stopped near Newark for lunch. The bridge entering the state is moderately impressive, but the constant tolls on the interstates in this area are annoying. Plus, every time I make the drive through here, there are alway…
