Goodbye furry creatures

Happy birthday Nick! 25 years young. Unfortunately on his birthday we had to drive 10 hours. We left at 11am to Warrensburg, MO to deliver our bunnies, Maggie and Sam to Kristin. She is a nice girl who responded to my craiglist ad to foster our bunnies. She has ...

Planning and Preparation

In February of 2009 I was living in Orlando and unhappy in my current career. The downturn in the economy hit my industry really hard. I wanted a break, but I wanted to do something incredible when I took that time off. I love to travel and there are so many places I couldn't go b/c of the lack of sufficient time off. I decided to plan a trip around the world. I began watching every Globe Trekker episode and researching ...

Omaha, Nebraska: Home, Home on the Plains

... tour. All of the concerts on this tour have been wonderful, but what a difference to move from a hot, humid, outdoor venue (Cincinnati), or an enormous indoor arena designed for hockey/basketball (St. Louis and Des Moines) to a modern, state-of-the-art concert hall with outstanding acoustics.

Combine the genius of a composer/arranger/director like Mack Wilberg, a dedicated, skilled Choir and Orchestra and a modern, acoustic concert hall, and you have ...

Council Bluffs - kinda boring really

... fitness regime and the cosmetic stuff we're having you ain't none of you gonna recognise us. Actually the fitness regime is suffering from lunchtime McDonalds, lack of fitness rooms and now the fact that I pulled a muscle in my left lower leg and am hobbling about like my Dad. We managed to find a restaurant that was recommended to us by the hotel receptionist that was ok really - the starter soups were a meal in themselves.

Home Again, Home Again

... it, was prepaid. So we had some solas left to spend before leaving the country. I used mine to tip our guide and Jim did the same and then had some more that he spent in the duty free store. After awhile we loaded on to our plane for a 5 1/2 hour flight to Miami.

When we reached Miami we had to claim our luggage, go through customs and immigration, and recheck our bags. Unfortunately, this also takes you out of the ...

The Trip Begins

We woke up to 6" of new snow this morning. I went out and started shoveling, thinking about 90 degrees in Rio. Our neighbor did most of the drive with a blower so it did not take too long. We would not have been able to get the car through the berm the snow plow had left at the end of the drive, so I ...

Snowy Countdown

We are to leave tomorrow and it is snowing in Omaha. The forecast
started at 1-2 inches. Now it is up to 5-8, tapering off at noon. Our
flight is scheduled to leave at 3:15 so we may be okay if the morning
flights don't back up and if the flight comes in from Dallas so it can
return to Dallas. This is shaping up to be like the time we went to
Sedona and the morning flights canceled. The other bad part is we have
a tight connection in Miami.
