Monica and I have been together for about six years now (since 2017) and every since meeting, we have enjoyed seeing and doing new things together.  We started traveling soon after, and haven’t stopped yet, and have no intentions of stopping anytime soon. 

We have five grandkids and another in process, so we are going to be putting miles on the Ford going back and forth anyway ( the Ford just so happens to be an Explorer… pun intended.. lol.. get it???..) .  Our goal is to sort it all out before they get much older and get them started young traveling with us.   

We are both over 50 now and in good health.  We both enjoy short to moderate hikes, kayaking, sail boating, driving and seeing the scenes set before us.  That being said, you will never hear us talking about the 12 mile hike up the mountain, or the three week backpacking trip through Denali.  Though we have drove up a pair of 14’ers in Colorado and taken an airplane ride through the Denali park.  We have and will continue to travel to some of the most iconic localities in the U.S. of A. but we will be doing it through short distance hikes (usually less than three miles), drives, boats, and air.

So join us for all of our favorite places, some of the routes and maps we used and the places we go.  This website is for the little bit more mature traveler.  You will not see us sexy posing in the sunset or under the waterfall, though you may see me fall in the water or sitting  watching the sun go down.

Thank you for visiting with us and we hope your journey is as fun as ours.
