2021-01-25 Waking Up in Nevada 💃☔️
Yesterday when I talked about gettin outta town, I really didn’t think I would be waking up today in Nevada!! The original plan? To have the car loaded and ready to jet at 5:30am. Drive for 9 hours, see the sunrise from I-29 south, and reach our destination in Oklahoma by 4 or 5pm. Then…

2020-10-09 Waking Up in Winter Park
Yesterday was a loooonnnnng day. We did not get on the road until about 6PM as Jim had a full day of work in CB. They say Denver is a 7 hour drive from Omaha, but I believe that’s only possible if you 1) Have a serious fire behind you and 2) Aren’t afraid to…

2019-10-12 Great Day’s and Girls Only Getaways
I ended my post a few days ago with “Tomorrow’s Gonna Be Great.” And indeed it was and how did I know that? How? On Wednesday evening when I was walking the treadmill and thinking and writing I was sort of in a sour mood as I had been running around all day and did…

2019-05-20 Love the One You’re With
Namely Nebraska, my current home state. What DOES one do when they’ve recently been released from the responsibility of work and find themselves with a week that’s also without the typical parental requirements? .. They plan a road trip! (Of course 😉) This little adventure we are heading out on this morning will take us…
