Another beautiful unique place, this time in Colorado. The park is drivable but as with most National parks, dogs aren’t allowed on the trails. This is the 30th National Park I’ve seen since retiring.
Looking back
I have learned so much. The motor home, operating systems, internet, satellite television, phones, planning trips months and years in advance, banking, bill paying, getting mail, doctors, OMG, the list is endless. So many incredible memories. Phenomenal places, beautiful scenery,…
Texas and the Coronavirus
This is certainly the most unusual thing I have ever experienced in my lifetime. And I’m sure you’re all feeling the same way about it as well. After leaving New Mexico I stayed in west Texas for a week, definitely…
New Mexico II

Death Valley National Park
Another absolutely unique place with beautiful landscapes amid the desolation of a gigantic desert. With 5270 square miles Death Valley is 60% of the size of the state of New Jersey. The pictures don’t really show how immense this place…
California (north and central)
The last time I was in California, I was only in the far south, San Diego. This time I came from the north. The northwest shoreline was beautiful and the weather was ideal. A lot more of the same perfect…
