Welcome –You Found It!

So, if you are reading this web page we must have met in a restaurant, maybe a bar, or on a airplane. We probably struck up a conversation that came around to traveling and places we have visited. During the conversation I am sure I got animated, and I am positive I closed our chat with the comment, "check out my blog".  

Shaking your head, you walked away from our encounter saying, “man-o-man that guy was vaccinated with a Victrola needle”, and in your hand was a napkin with a blog address. 

Two months later you have found the napkin in your coat pocket. Hmmm, what is this you asked yourself?.

It is raining, and you are tired of watching reality TV so why not? You typed in the web address that was scribbled on the napkin and Bingo – you have arrived! 

Whoever you are, I am glad you found that napkin! Below are the links to some of the places my wife and I have visited, which if you remember was why we started our initial conversation.

Just click on the title of the blog!

Please Enjoy the Blogs & Trip Reports, and may our paths cross again.       T😊M
