Dale and I had a free week-long stay at a Wyndham Resort that was about to expire, so we planned an excursion to Fairfield Bay, Arkansas! It was really good timing too because we were celebrating our 30th anniversary on the 27th. So, on Saturday morning, November 25 we first...
I’m sitting in an Airbnb in San Antonio this morning. We arrived last night and plan to stay two weeks so that we can spend some time with our youngest daughter and her husband who live here, as well as enjoy the sights and activities San Antonio offers. (Also, Michelle,...
On October 4 myself and seven others from our church went to Spain to serve “pilgrims” hiking “El Camino de Santiago” or “The Way of St. James”, which is a 500-mile journey from France to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, located in Northern Spain. Since the Middle Ages, this...
We arrived home from our West Coast trip on Sunday, August 20, now suddenly it’s October! And, in two days I’m heading out again on a church mission trip. I am updating this blog before any more time goes by, however, there is no way for me to be as...

Here are a couple of video clips of some of the wild life we saw on this leg of the journey. After packing up our tent at MacKerricher State Park we traveled into Fort Bragg for a hearty breakfast then headed out on our last leg to Napa. Our first...
One night of camping is much more affordable than one night in a hotel room. Granted, we do give up some comforts, but sometimes the experience is priceless. That’s how I feel about our stay at MacKerricher State Park. The route down from McKinleyville to Napa, if driven in the...
Four days ago, on Saturday morning, we packed up the car and left McKinleyville headed south. Our next destination … Napa! However, we had several adventures planned on the way, beginning with the Avenue of the Giants. The Avenue of the Giants is a popular 31-mile scenic drive lined by...
