Isn’t it funny how we can just pass by amazing things and not give them the respect they deserve because we are in a hurry, or have a different focus, or just don’t see them as wonderful as our ultimate destination? Well, not this time kiddos! Overnight I was overtaken with an urge to hike […]

Between a couple and a few…could be miles, could be pets, could be just about anything in my life at the moment. Been stuck in the house between a couple and a few days because it has been wicked cold. Today I could not stand it any longer…cabin fever be gone! I mentioned to Little […]

My son came home from college for the Thanksgiving weekend on Amtrak. We got to talking and he mentioned the train had gone over this really cool aqueduct he had never known about just before getting to Point of Rocks. I said, “Oh, that’s the Catoctin Aqueduct! They just finished refurbishing it…I keep meaning to […]

What do I want for my birthday, more than anything else? A sunrise hike. Luckily, I was able to set out with Sidekick Pauli this morning to explore the trails on Worthington Farm, part of the Monocacy National Battlefield, in Frederick, Maryland. Too bad Little Caesar had to work 😦 or she could have come […]

Early last Thursday morning, someone hit my car and luckily left a note. What started as an “oh crap” day quickly turned into a “oh yes, I get a nice rental car, and I don’t have to pay for it” day! Right then and there, I decided that it was high time for a road […]
