This post is long overdue – but I imagine anyone reading this has likely too much on their plate as well!!  But what’s in your cup? When hubby and I were recently in Savannah, we went on a Foodie Tour – more about that another day, and one of the places we stopped was Perk [...]

A few photos as we pack up and ready ourselves for our return to New England work and weather tomorrow – what a great stay we had in Savannah!  Southern hospitality is very real!

The day that wasn’t…

January 25th, 2011 · 1 Comment · eating, Musings, Site Seeing, travel

…a great day in Savannah that is!  We had a quiet beginning because we both had some work to do and the weather report was for rain.  Indeed it was raining.  We started out about lunch in light rain and visited the Savannah Historical Museum and the SCAD Museum of Art.  This first picture is [...]

Charming Savannah

January 24th, 2011 · No Comments · Art, Musings, travel

We’ve been here three days and I just haven’t found the time to post anything as yet.  This may not be very long either as we’re going to go biking to the famous, or maybe infamous, Bonaventure Cemetary.    It’s been a lovely stay so far.  The weather has been a bit on the chilly side [...]

Glaciers and Bears and Whales, OH MY!

August 17th, 2010 · No Comments · Alaska, Musings, travel

The last couple of days on our Alaska adventure have been phenomenal!  It has been consistently rainy (in fact Anchorage and surrounds are hitting a record of 29 days in a row with rain).  While the rain has dampened, well actually drenched us, it has not stopped our enjoyment or wonder at the sights of [...]

Sharing community and culture

August 12th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Important People, Musings, travel

The last couple of days here in Anchorage have been delightful, funny and moving! First, here’s a picture of animals from the zoo — a small but enchanting place. We thought of our daughter and granddaughter as thy are both animal lovers: no lions, but bears aplenty! Another place our theatrical daughter would love: Cyrano’s. [...]

Mountains to Gift Shops…

As we walk back and forth each day to our bed and breakfast,  actually depending on the cloud cover which so far (and we’re told is most times) is always there; we get peeks of the Chugach Mountains.  This morning they were particularly majestic and bright in the bit of sun we were treated to [...]

Anchorage or Bust!

August 7th, 2010 · No Comments · Musings

We’re here! We were exhausted on Thursday night when we arrived. The time change is 4 hours from Massachusetts and by the time we touched down, we knew it. We had an 8 hour straight flight from Philadelphia. Fortunately, a pleasant seat mate; and we observed that everyone on board was congenial. Strangers passed the [...]

Here’s to Alaska and us!

August 4th, 2010 · No Comments · family, Itinerary, Musings, Site Seeing, travel

Tomorrow morning we leave for Alaska! Another destination that has been on my personal list since I was a child; and one hubby and I have shared! As usual, I’m nervous about the flying part — never ever my favorite part of the event. But, with enough decongestant and airport food; I’ll forget! We hope [...]

DC through the eyes of a 3 year old

November 23rd, 2009 · 1 Comment · Children, photo of the week

Yes, she did take these photos.  She has a great eye for it! Lions in front of the Concoran Museum. And lions at the zoo! The Lincoln memorial  (she loved the echo inside, although we had to ask her not to try it out too many times.)   And she thought that the statute of Mr. [...]
