Example…see the top three pop ups I encountered today, while attempting to read a news feed. Ok, I confess, maybe “Top Ten States…
Picture this: Italy. Tuscan hillside! The Captain and I on our honeymoon! Sigh….. Keep picturing….. The train, …much like the Orient Express, (only much cheaper)…. and we are in a tiny sleeper cabin. There is a small portable table with two plush seats on either side beside the large window. It reminds me of an…
The Florida Keys, Islamorada in particular The Captain and I celebrated his birthday down in the Florida Keys, which is always a relaxing and laid-back environment. You might ask why one would want to “get away for a few days” when one is already living in paradise, and rightly so. ;0 BUT leave it we…
Cruisin’ With The Dolphins! I am sure the first thought one has when seeing this post title is: …. Sports! and the Miami Dolphins! However, one would be wrong!

WiBar, Bar Brace and the *OTG Experience. Wow! It is becoming more and more evident that our world is a technological marvel and definitely on-the-go!

Baltimore…Army/Navy Game! Yes, this is partly about sports….oh, what am I saying….it is sports related. 🙂 Last week, the Captain and I flew to Baltimore to attend the Captain’s Alumni Dinner and to watch the Army/Navy game.

Christmas in New York City! I really do love walking around the streets of New York in December….the hustle and bustle of the busy sidewalks filled with Holiday shoppers!

St. Petersburg….The Captain’s Alumni Banquet! I have yet another confession to make. 🙁 Yes, there was the usual pomp and circumstance, such as the raised swords as alumni entered the building. The tables were set beautifully with little blue airplanes marking the table numbers. Military uniforms and Aviation memorabilia everywhere. There was even a huge…
Round Robin! We made a Round Robin! What a whirlwind this past week has been! I am dizzy from it! What? you say…. As many of you know who know me…..we have children scattered hither and yon with none of them in Cape Coral, where we live. ;( Most people who live in Florida complain…
The visit to “The Lady and Sons Restaurant” was a no-brainer in Savannah, and one cannot be in Savannah and not see reminders of Paula Deen’s existence…..as well as reminders of a city full of rich history. We stayed in the RiverFront District, which was a drift back in time to the days of the…
