One of the largest meetups ever... a party of two  :o)With Mark (travelman 727) and I holding down the fort, we painted the town red as we headed to Hannigan's, our first stop to have lunch in Laclede's Landing.  On a perfect-weather day we sat outside and enjoyed the view of old cobbles…

  I'm beginning to think there was something wrong with my camera. I don't have many photos from my last couple of days back in Waikiki either. To be honest, I think I may have just been very relaxed and enjoying the last few days of my lovely honeymoon. Soaking up the sun, soaking up th…

This morning, Joyce had her lesson through the Nancy Emerson Surf School with Sharky. Private lessons cost $150 for 2 hours, but they give you a little more time, and provide all the gear. Sharky was apparently amazing, teaching Joyce not only how to get on a board, but what to watch for, corrected…

After our St. Paddy's meetup, we discovered a few of us local TBs shared birthdays just a few days apart (April 10, 12, and 15). So we decided to get together on April 11 to celebrate at Tasso's Greek restaurant in KC. It was a small TB group, but very large in quality! Lola (April 12), D…

OK - so this journal entry isn't really about travel, but kind of fits in with my hometown blog!  Our courthouse was constructed beginning in 1897 and dedicated in 1900.  Lady Justice has stood atop the dome for 109 years and has really fallen into disrepair over the years.…

I have spent numerous nights at the cute little Country Club Motel in Crookston while working out at Glacial Ridge.  One night, Sept 4, 2003, a landslide ocurred.  The hotel was built on top of the slope leading down to the Red Lake River.  The weak clays became saturated with rain a…

It is said that our souls are a reflection of nature itself, what say you? I find that I'm lost when it comes to the defying phenomena of nature. This year I have concentrated on the SUN (the rising and setting of the same), but I will tell you right now that the sun can not compare to the glory of…

It was a thirty six minute flight from Miami to Tampa and is was very uncomfortable. The plane was to warm!! At least our luggage made it back home with us.   It's always good to get back home.
