PNW Part 8 – Olympic Peninsula, Sequim WA

During our last visit to this area, we wanted to visit Victoria and Vancouver Island, British Columbia but COVID put a stop to that. So during this visit we decided to try again. The base area we picked was the town of Sequim, pronounced “skwim”, halfway between Port Townsend and Port Angeles, two of the

PNW 2023 Part 6 – Seattle

With Jennifer’s Dad getting ready to celebrate his 90th birthday, we decided to stop in the Seattle area and McChord Air Force Base as a place to park the motorhome for a couple days to fly down to Texas. Our original plan was to set up for a couple days near Mount Rainer before heading

PNW 2023 Part 5 – Washington Coast, Pacific Beach

After 4 weeks exploring the Oregon coast it was time to say “til next time” to Oregon and drive north into Washington. We had not explored much of the far western Washington coast, so we decided to check out some new areas. There are two choices we found on the west side, a southern peninsula,

PNW 2023 Part 4 – North Oregon Coast, Cannon Beach

As we continued north on our journey up the Oregon coast we made one last stop, Cannon Beach. Our plan here was to enjoy one of the largest beaches in Oregon and try out some of the many restaurants in this small vacation resort town. Just a short 100 miles north of Newport, the coast

PNW 2023 Part 3 – Central Oregon Coast, Newport

As we continued up the coast, we made an extended stop a few miles north of Newport and just a short 75 miles from Winchester Bay. We love this area! During our last two visits we spotted a lot of whales and hoped to replicate our luck again this year. The Oregon coast is lined

PNW 2023 Part 2 – South Oregon Coast, Winchester Bay

After a wonderful stay in Harris Beach and our first tastes of fresh seafood and the Pacific coast, we set the theme for our next stop as Seascapes, Sea Lions, and Seafood. Our target was to eat only freshly caught seafood, find sea lions in the wild close enough to see and hear, and hike

PNW 2023 Part 1 – South Oregon Coast, Brookings

It’s summer in Tucson and 100+ degrees. Time for us to take off on our quest for cooler weather, coastal views, eating seafood and hiking. This year’s adventure finds us north along the Oregon Coast, Washington Coast, then inland to the Cascades and ending up in Utah. Our first stop is near the town of

Fall in the UK Part 7: London

Amazing how fast time can go by. Hard to believe we had been in the UK almost 3 weeks. After our wonderful and busy time in Yorkshire, it was time to start getting ready to head home. As we have done in previous visits, we stayed in London a couple days to wind down, get

Fall in the UK Part 4: Salisbury

This was our third visit to Salisbury in recent years. It was also, once again, the impetus for our visit to the UK. As before, Craig had a week of work meetings and Jennifer spent the week walking, touring, and taking advantage of the nice weather. Salisbury is most famously known for its 13th century

Southern Utah Part 5: Bryce Canyon National Park

Bryce Canyon is one of the more remote national parks in southwest Utah and one of the “Big-5”. It is nestled in the red rocks and canyons of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. It’s not really a canyon, but a series of “amphitheaters” of eroded sandstone and hoodoos. We had heard so many wonderful things about the
