What a long awesome day
June 9, 2015Our day began very early. We got up at 4:00a.m. and headed to the Grand Canyon to watch the sunrise. It was a brisk 37 degrees as we headed out. We joined a small crowd of people and enjoyed the peace and serenity of watching a new day form. The…
Well . . .it’s grand
June 8, 2015We're off on another adventure! This time we are travelling with my sister, Jen, and her husband Tom, along with our niece and nephew, Beth (9) and Sean (11) on what I'm calling the National Parks Vacation. We are flying into Las Vegas and heading to the Hoover Dam, Grand…
Goodbye Hawaii
February 22, 2015The week has gone by fast and it was already time to return to Oahu. After another good breakfast at the Kilauea Military Camp cafeteria we made our way back to Hilo to catch our flight to Honolulu. As we waited in the airport I used a new app that…
Hawaii Day 3 – Because We Can’t Think Of A Cool Title
February 19, 2015After having several early mornings over the past few days, we decided it would be nice to sleep in a little so we set the alarm for 8:00a.m. Unfortunately my body still woke be up before the alarm, so I was up at 7:30 and set out to start typing…
Hawaii, The Island of Volcanos
February 18, 2015Today is helicopter adventure day! It's about an hour drive from our lodging to Hilo so we were up and off early to head to the airport. We were taking a smaller helicopter and the doors were coming off! Tom and I sat in the back while the pilot and…
A Drive Around The Island
February 17, 2015Our flight to the Big Island of Hawaii was at 6:00a.m. so it was another early morning for us, but in reality I was up before my alarm anyway. Perhaps it was part of the anticipation of a new adventure, or perhaps it was my body thinking it was still…Hawaii Bound!!
February 16, 2015Every now and again, the military affords us opportunites to catch a ride if it's going on a mission and there is space available. We are so fortunate that we were once again, we were able to catch a flight to Hawaii during another cold stretch of Wisconsin weather. Monday…Goodbye Aruba!
January 25, 2015Already Saturday and time to go home. It's amazing how fast time flies when you're having fun. To make the most out of the last few hours in Aruba, I woke up early this morning. I walked along the beach and went to grab one last geocache hidden by a…Jolly Pirates
January 25, 2015I can hardly believe it's already Friday. The week has gone by so fast. After breakfast I parked my butt by the pool and continued to read my book. At 1:00 we headed to the Jolly Pirate ship. The excursion consisted of going to two different spots for snorkeling and…4×4 Excursion!
January 23, 2015Today was our excursion to the other side of the island in two-seater all terrain vehicles! We were picked up at 8:30 and drove to Philip's Animal Garden where the excursion began. The tour started with walking through the zoo. We learned that they were an animal rescue and all…Rental Adventure
January 23, 2015Wednesday's adventure started with a search for mountain bikes. Laurie called the place we had walked to the day before, but they said they didn't have any available to rent. We walked to a sales stand at the hotel next door that we had seen the day before when out…Tubing & Geocaching
January 21, 2015Tuesday was another day without any scheduled activities. We started the morning late after having slept in. I wish I could say these beds were as great as ours at home, but unfortunately it's not even close. After breakfast I walked with Pete and Laurie to find out information on…
