I love spotlighting our national parks! They are all beautiful and unique and provide great vacations; nearly everyone can find one that is right for them. Today I am going to take a look at a park that seems, at least to me, a bit more obscure. Take a look and see what you think! […]
One of the least known Caribbean Islands is Anguilla. It is a British Overseas Territory in the eastern Caribbean around 200 miles east of Puerto Rico. It is an island surrounded by several small islets. What makes this country so special and why should you visit? Let’s take a look! The beaches Anguilla has some […]
We’ve been to the UK and had a fantastic time. One thing we did not do is to spend much time in the countryside. This is an error that we will correct on our next visit! We loved London– it is a wonderful city and we also enjoyed Bath, Stratford-on-Avon (hello Mr. Shakespeare!) and […]

It’s been a few years since we have been to Chicago. On our last visit we attended my husband’s family reunion. Since his family is spread all over the country Chicago was selected as a compromise. Once the reunion ended, we decided to stay around awhile and explore the city. It was summer, the weather was […]
I love traveling! Since retiring, my husband and I have taken a number of fascinating trips. While I enjoy the trip itself, I also like seeing new and interesting places with him. I am not sure I would appreciate it as much if I traveled alone. I could surprise myself though- I have known other […]
