Hey everyone..

If you don't know already.. I am back in the states. I got sick before I left, but thinking it was just nerves I went anyways. After a few days I still couldn't hold any food down and started to ask around about what I should do as well as had my senora stick to making me bland food. By the end of the first weekend I had...

Hey everybody,

As you well know I'm leaving for Europe for 6 weeks starting this Sunday. Instead of writing lots of separate emails I thought I would chronicle my travels in this travel blog. Feel free to check back in to see where in the world I am and to feel so incredibly jealous of me. :D

July 8 The Wisconsin stop

We got settled in and set up today in the morning. All the birdies had some out time and tried to mess up where we'd cleaned. We decided to go to Chippewa Falls to see if we could find the Gower School (Historic) as it is listed on google. I knew there was a Gower School there because my grandfather grew up the...

It's betting late here in Menomonie, Wisconsin. Cute town, nature is beautiful, only a 1 hour drive from Minneapolis but I did that for a reason: It shaves off 1 hour of a long drive tomorrow because I have something special in mind, you have to read abou that later. I'm looking very much forward to it, it's going to be a long day....So this is ...

By Richard & Ellen Thane


"Down a country road" is a phrase often used to describe the Wisconsin landscape and we can't think of a more apt description. Within moments of leaving most any major highway in the state you find yourself traveling silver ribbons of roadways that wind through picturesque farm coun...

Today I traveled with family members to Eau Claire, Wisconsin to remember a special relative who has recently passed away. We had a really lovely time together. After the memorial service and luncheon I photographed several families present and some of the items from the service and then we spent time over at my cousin's home. I really enjoy the...

Thought I'd enter something in here, just to get the hang of this thing. I hope to be able to enter something on here at least once a week or so, depending on the availability of a computer. I'll be able to enter pictures and stuff so everyone can see how much sweeter my summer will be than thiers. It's only 10 days until we leave for our trip, ...
