  • Night Out

    Not that I really needed one but I had a chance to hang out with the Parks and catch the US Women’s Soccer team play, and the bar we were at (Reservoir) also had the Rangers. It was good to see them and the games and there was also some good eats to be had.…

  • Sunday was not a Funday…

    Well I needed steps and hadn’t peopled all weekend so I went to church today and then went to see mom. On the way home, I decided to go to the mall and get some steps. But on the way there I ran over something and got a flat. I actually had to read the…

  • Animal Issues and Birthday Party

    TGIF BTW. So the morning started out early when Sandy informed me that our racoon trap was doing double duty and was acting as a possum trap. Cute little guy but not very friendly. So we let him go and sent him on his way. Then, on my way to the gym, I ran over…

  • Old Friends & New Faces

    I got a chance to see my old friend Doug today! It’s been a good 20 years since our paths crossed and by chance, he was heading through DFW on his way to Baylor University in Waco to move his daughter to Boston to continue her studies at Harvard. The years haven’t been bad to…

  • Best Part of Traveling…

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the best part of traveling is going back home. I’m sitting in the airport in Phoenix waiting for another hour and 15 minutes to board for the 2 hour 40 minute flight back to Dallas. Super excited to be heading home. This was the first time…

  • City of Loreto

    We booked a ride into the town of Loreto from the resort tonight. It was $20 per person which was a little steep but honestly town is like 45 minutes away so you figure $20 for 80 or 90 minutes which, once broken down, isn’t all that bad. The city of Loreto is a quaint…

  • Kayaking – Sea of Cortez

    Had a chance to go kayaking at the resort.

  • Happy Thanksgiving!!!

    Tis the season to be thankful and it’s with thanks I write this, thanks for my family and friends, thanks for a pretty kick ass life. I have everything that I need and my wants are few. We have a new truck that will make sure our travels are safer and at a higher level…

  • Travel Day to PA

    We actually got up and out earlier than expected. I woke up around 4ish and finally got Sandy up around 5ish, got showered and ready, and we hooked up and dumped the tanks and hit the road. I almost had a most unfortunate incident emptying the tank, the hose and hookups were hooked to gray…

  • Hiking in Borderland State Park

    First a bit of a rant, while I enjoy the parks in MA, if Sandy’s mom wasn’t here I would avoid this state like the plague, what really grinds my gears is how unwelcoming this state is. To park and hike at this state park (any of them actually) you have to pay $5 if…
