I’m Itching

I said that to Dale recently. “Dry skin?” he asks. I reply, “Nope, I’m just itching to get back on the road.” I’m even looking at cars with cartop carriers longingly. “Remember when we used one of those honey?” Sigh. It’s okay though. We’ve got a few adventures planned for...

Castello di Amorosa

One of the adventures while the kids were here was to visit the Castello di Amorosa (Castle of Love), a winery located near Calistoga, California.

Alcatraz and Other San Francisco Sights

We arrived in Napa almost 12 days ago! I can hardly believe we’ve been here that long. This has been a special leg of the trip for us for a couple of reasons; first, our son and daughter-in-law came to visit, and second, we stayed in a resort instead of...
