Today, May 28, is Candace’s birthday. She said she turned 28 today. I am certainly not going to argue with her about her math. Candace said she would like to see animals for her birthday. Man O-Boy, Boy O-Man did we ever see animals. The weather was perfect, and the animals were everywhere. It was…

Tuesday was another beautiful day here in the paradise that is known as Yellowstone. The Native American peoples that lived and worked here for hundreds maybe thousands of years before the European people arrived and announced they had discovered this wonderful place, called it the Land of the Yellow Stone. There were many more different…

We opted to put our vacation trip into 1st gear. Rather than drive into the park for most of the day we decided to go at a much more relaxed pace and spend more time in the community of West Yellowstone. The town is virtually abandoned after about 8:30 when most of the tourists headed…

When I go to bed at 9:00 PM and the hotel room is too warm to sleep, I wake up at about 3:00 AM. I did get a bit more restless sleep but I was up and at ‘em long before my 7:00 alarm went off. The gang managed to all arrive in the lobby…

Our plane trip to Bozeman, Montana was pretty dog gone good. The planes were on time and although they were very full, they were uneventful. We flew to Salt Lake City first before flying on to Bozeman. Penny reminded Candace that her first trip to Salt Lake City airport was when she, Penny and our…

We booked a flight for 8:30 and Delta decided we should get up much earlier and leave Kansas City at 6:30. To…

You may or may not remember a war movie called “The Longest Day” starring John Wayne, Henry Fonda, Robert Mitchum, Sean Connery and a slew of other well known actors from the 50s and 60s. That film was about D-Day in WW II. But Penny and I could have filmed a new movie called the…

Day 38. Thursday February 20, 2025 A day at sea. Facebook The routine doesn’t change much. We slept in a bit and then go for breakfast in the buffet. Then we play cards (Golf) up on the 14th floor near the pool but in the shade. We ate lunch in the dining room. Our waiter…

Today was to have been a second day anchored off of Mystery Island, Vanuatu. By the way a bit of a Google search unraveled the mystery of why mystery island has that name. First of all, the island is called Inyeug by the inhabitants of the nearby islands. In 1974 Queen Elizabeth II and Prince…
