Life is Short.

Take Time to Travel.

Live vicariously through my travels while you’re in-between yours!

Vacations were a huge part of my childhood and now road trips keep us busy during retirement. We try to make the journeys as exciting as the destinations.

At the end of each trip, I always include a “recap” which includes what we saw, where we stayed, and a link to each post. My hope is to inspire you to use every one of your vacation days. Enjoy!

Our Latest Adventures

I don't do this often, but I didn't get very far on my "Eight State Getaway" posts anyway, so the rest are getting the boot (for now) in favor of a series from our latest winter road trip. I'll try to skim over some of the other stuff before we get to our absolutely fabulous stops in Utah. I can hardly wait to get started on these posts, so follow my facebook page so you'll know when each new post is complete!

Please excuse the mess on older posts while I update my site.

  • History 101

    As someone who hated high school history class, I'm amazed at how much I enjoy visiting places from those dreaded books and lectures.

  • All Things New Hampshire

    This post is a combination of all things New Hampshire in one fantastic day – babbling brooks, waterfalls, walks in the woods, and more!

  • New Hampshire Bridges

    Under a covered bridge is a good place to find its heart and imagine what it has lived through – above the ever-changing flow of a river.

  • Climb to the Clouds

    Although Jim did not appreciate this driving experience, the views and the excitement on the Mount Washington Auto Road were fantastic!

  • Castle in the Clouds

    Last time we were here, it was rainy, cloudy and the gates were closed, but we returned nine years later on a truly spectacular day.

  • Another Week of Wow!

    We moved our home base to NH near the Attitash whistle stop. Here we had plenty of opportunities to explore the splendor of New Hampshire.

Life is Short. Take Time to Travel.

Use every one of your vacation days my friends. And consider a journal of your experiences, so you can remember some little detail that will make you smile for years to come.
