KEY LARGO, FL
The summer heat and humidity in Key Largo fires off the typical afternoon thunderstorm. This creates dramatic skies and beautiful sunsets. Occasionally, we get close encounters with our wild neighbors.
Our plans were to spend a couple of day at Sequoia National Park, but mother nature allowed us only a couple of hours. Luckily the weather lifted enough for us to explore the foothills.
SEQUOIA & FOOTHILLS, CA
SEATTLE, WA
I had the good fortune of spend a couple of days wondering around Seattle on two trips. The weather was glorious, the people were very friendly, and the food was heavenly. Such a beautiful and vibrant city. I am looking forward to a return trip.
CAPE COD, MA HALLOWEEN
A family road trip to enjoy the local sights was delightful. We saw scarecrow competitions, Halloween window displays and autumn color at every venue throughout the week. New Englanders go all out.
MARTHAS VINEYARD, MA
Steve’s clan joined us on a ferry trip to the Vineyard in the offseason. We traveled on foot and by bus to see some of the sights of island life. My favorite place was the cottages in Oaks Bluff - each one looking like a doll house with it’s own unique signature.
