Road Trip – Porto To Barcelona To the Basque Region of Northern Spain – Part 2

Road Trip – Porto To Barcelona To the Basque Region of Northern Spain – Part 2

Continued from Part 1! Barcelona Barcelona did not disappoint in any way. It’s a much more intimate city than Madrid and very walkable. We put on over 10 miles in one day! Of course the highlight was the work of Gaudi. The Sagrada Familia facade that you currently enter through is almost too much to […]

Road Trip – Porto To Barcelona To the Basque Country – Part 1

Road Trip – Porto To Barcelona To the Basque Country – Part 1

A friend and I went on an 18 day whirlwind land tour on the Ibeaian Peninsula. We flew into Lisbon, then to Porto, drove to Lisbon, Óbidos, Evora, Seville, Granada, high speed train to Madrid, then Barcelona, our final stop was the Basque Country. It was a whirlwind trip but really gave us a taste […]

Island Time

Island Time

Before this trip the furthest south in the Carribean I had been was Cuba. On this trip two friends and I spent a couple weeks on Virgin Gorda. Lonely planet described Virgin Gorda this way – Somehow, Virgin Gorda keeps a level head and remains a slowpoke, chicken-dotted destination without rampant commercialism. To the chicken-dotted […]

Road Trips – Wandering

Road Trips – Wandering

There were a couple trips this year I did not do blog posts about but want to mention them so they can be included in my blog book I print each year. Two friends and I went to Charlottesville, VA to visit Monticello in October. On the way we stopped in Richmond and went to […]

Busy time

Busy time

This has been a busy year for me! I bought a 100 year old house in December 2020. It needed foundation work to start with. When I bought the house it had 3 cracks in the plaster and when foundation work was done it had 100! But I have a good painter and he has […]

New Work

New Work

I’ve been busy this fall! The Studio Tour was the first Saturday in November and at the same time I am the featured artist at Carolina Creations. I realize my blog, lately, has been more about my travels than my artwork, but I HAVE been doing a lot of that too. All my work is […]

Road Trip NC to Maine to Cape (part 2)

Road Trip NC to Maine to Cape (part 2)

This is a part 2 of my month long rv trip to the North East. Read the first half by clicking here.! Vermont From Old Forge and Saratoga we headed to Arlington, VT arriving at the Camp on the Battenkill. It’s a very large, wooded campground with nice sites, some right on the river. Arlington […]

Road Trip Colorado and Utah

Road Trip Colorado and Utah

I’ve been making a trip to Colorado every year for the past 4 years. Michael and I lived there in the 80s and I really miss parts of it. It’s so beautiful but like Michigan, where I am originally from, I don’t want to be there in the winter. I visit my friend who was […]

Road Trip 3 Florida State Parks, bats, and butterflies

Road Trip 3 Florida State Parks, bats, and butterflies

In May I took my RV to Florida to visit 3 State Parks meeting a friend with her RV. We started at Paynes Prarie Preserve near Gainesville. The park itself covers 21,000 acres, there are hiking trails, biking trails, a large lake, an observation tower, free roaming horses and bison, lots of birds and alligators. […]
