November 7-8, 2020 It seems it’s been a while since we’ve gotten out of town. My last post was in early September. We did make a short trip up to Gunnison, CO, in early October but I didn’t take any pictures and it was a rather uneventful trip, so I didn’t bother making a postContinue reading “Ruidoso, NM”

Cripple Creek, CO
September 3 – 7, 2020 We took trip through Colorado at the beginning of September, mainly looking for tiny towns where we might want to move to at a later time.
Taos, NM
August 29, 2020 Brandy and I woke up early on Saturday in anticipation of visiting the farmer’s markets in downtown Albuquerque and in Los Ranchos on Rio Grande Blvd. We got to the market downtown and it was PACKED. Way too many people for our taste, so we bypassed it and went straight to theContinue reading “Taos, NM”
Cortez, CO
August 22-23, 2020 With the coronavirus still running rampant with no end in sight, planning trips has been difficult. Lodging is sparse to non-existent and attractions may or may not be open at any given time. What the coronavirus won’t do is stop us from looking for an ideal place to live when we decideContinue reading “Cortez, CO”
Midwestern United States
Ottumwa and Dyersville, Iowa, Rankin and Chicago, IllimoisJuly 17-25, 2020 The car was packed and ready to go by the time Brandy got home at 3:15. We finished up some last minute things, said good bye to Ash and left at around 3:45. We drove up I-40 to Tucumcari, then hopped on to the 54,Continue reading “Midwestern United States”
Five Days
We’ll be leaving for our trip to the Midwest this Friday after work, hoping to be on the road around 4:00-ish. We’re planning on driving in to Liberal, KS, about six hours away, then finishing the trip Saturday, another ten hours or so, into Ottumwa. I’ll be meeting a pair of Brandy’s friends when weContinue reading “Five Days”
Is This Heaven?
No. It’s Iowa. On the agenda for our next trip is a trip to Iowa to see Brandy’s parents. On our way out of Iowa, we’re going to swing through Dyersville, home of the Field of Dreams movie site. Carved out of the corn fields of the century-old Lansing farm, the site holds the diamondContinue reading “Is This Heaven?”
Almont, CO
And the surrounding areas June 4-8, 2020 The Western Slope of Colorado is a region that contains many counties and much of the water that can be found in the state. Nestled in the Western Slope is Gunnison County, home of Gunnison, Almont and Crested Butte, CO. Admittedly, I’d never heard of these places beforeContinue reading “Almont, CO”
Planned Trip: Rankin, IL, July 22-25
Before I go into my planned trip, I’m happy to say that my permanent pass for the Air Force Base is ready and I’ll be picking it up in the next day or two. Secondly, I’m going to say, I love working for Presbyterian. Despite losing money by the elimination of elective surgeries during theContinue reading “Planned Trip: Rankin, IL, July 22-25”
Goings On and What’s to Come
Since my last trip, a lot has happened, yet simultaneously, not a lot has happened. On February 29, I met Brandy. Her and I have so much in common, but yet we are such completely different people. I quickly realized though that this is a woman that I am madly in love with. She bringsContinue reading “Goings On and What’s to Come”
