When I got back home from my latest trip, I started catching up on world news. When I learned what all is going on in the world, I very quickly decided to get the Hell out of the present. So I fired up my Way-the-Hell-Back … Continue reading Leadville, Colorado (Spring 2013)
Day Six of my Vermont State Vacation was my dedicated foliage viewing day. Obviously, I had been enjoying the foliage while driving around the state over the previous several days. But on this day, the foliage was the destination, not just something to glimpse at … Continue reading Vermont 2023 Trip Report (the last two days)
