Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
Our first post was getting a bit long, so here is Part Two of our description of Palau and its wonderful diving. In the first post (Diving in Palau–Wow! [Part One]), we described the earlier dives of our trip, along with excursions to Jellyfish Lake and Milky Way. Here we …
It took us a long time to get to Koror, Palau, but we are so glad we made the trip! We (and our eight dive buddies) traveled 7,174 miles across 17 time zones, flying from LAX to Honolulu (with our little tangential trip to Kauai—see previous post), where our flight …
It was so lovely to arrive back on Kauai (Hawaii) after not having been for five years. And it was even better that we were here with eight other dive buddies, enjoying a few days in Princeville before heading to our dive adventure in Palau (next post). The adventures began …
Because we had to leave Yellowstone a few days earlier than planned, due to the bad weather, it gave us the opportunity to insert some additions into our trip home. Yellowstone Bear World – About 80 miles from West Yellowstone, in the town of Rexburg, Idaho, is a private drive-through …

Missouri:When we headed east at the end of April, we passed through southern Missouri to visit Laura Ingalls Wilder’s home in Mansfield. On our way west toward home, we came through a little further north, St. Louis to be exact. St. Louis has been a significant transportation and shipping hub …
We’ve been gone 9 weeks and have traveled over 6000 miles in the RV. We just began Phase III of our trip (visiting Quebec and Ontario). And this phase has started off with a bang! We left New Brunswick and traveled around multiple little peninsulas and bays to get to …
Ever since I watched the PBS series of Anne of Green Gables, I’ve wanted to go to Prince Edward Island. Sometimes the reality doesn’t match up to the anticipation, but in this case, the reality was every bit as good as what we had hoped for. We traveled across the …
While Cape Bretoners might grumble about being part of Nova Scotia, the island above the mainland of Nova Scotia is technically a part of the province, having been annexed to Nova Scotia in 1820. And what a beautiful place Cape Breton is, especially now that spring has finally arrived in …
