    Tom was up early and out the door for his morning walk by 6:30 (5 miles this morning). I rolled over and tried to get some more sleep but found myself up by 7:00. I headed down to the beach to see if there were any more treasures to be…

    I heard Tom get up early to go for a walk, but I definitely did not feel like joining him this morning. I was just too tired and wanted the extra sleep. I rolled out of bed sometime after 8:00 and took my time getting ready. Tom was back after…

    For some reason I woke up incredibly early this morning and didn't think I would fall back asleep. Tom was stirring as well and we decided to get up and go for a walk. I was interested in getting steps, but I also wanted to see the sunrise. We were…

    I took advantage of not having anything on our schedule today and slept in until 8:00. Tom on the other hand was up at 5:30 and went for a walk. A couple of hours and 7 miles later he came back before anyone had gotten up. I went for my…

    Not knowing what to expect for traffic and people, I set the alarm for 6:15am with the hopes to be out the door by 7:00. We actually made it out by 7:30 and was shocked when we had zero traffic issues. We made our way to Casco Viejo (the historic…

    Today we (minus Ryan and Angie who opted to stay back) drove to the city of El Valle (means valley) to do some hiking and view a waterfall. When researching the night before, Google said that it was a 2 hour drive. When we (Tom, Vicente, Peyton and I) got…

    Our first full day in Panama brought a casual day around the property. We lounged around the condo until mid-morning, before Laurie, Linda, Vicente, Peyton and I ventured down to the beach (and after Linda discovered the $6.49 milk was bad. It didn't smell bad, but the first spoonful of…

    It's winter in Wisconsin and time for another vacation! Last year Pete, Laurie, and Linda went to Mexico for 3 weeks and asked us to join them, but I couldn't go for that long due to work commitments. I told them to ask me again for 2024 because my situation…

    It's winter and we live in Wisconsin, so you know what that means! It was time for us to escape the cold and snow and head to a beach. This year I started the search in January and after a full day of scouring the internet for anything from a…

    Tom hadn't yet spent anytime in the casino, so in the morning as I was getting ready and packing up he ventured down to the casino to try his luck. He was back up in the room 40 minutes later after not having any success on the electronic roulette table.…

    Day 2 in Vegas and we woke up with only plans for the day of Daniel Tosh at 10:00p.m. We took our time getting ready and did some web surfing to solidify a plan of attack. On the ride back the night before we passed Area 15 (https://area15.com/) and the…

    We stacked our calendar with a few trips this fall. After Tom had told me about our "mystery" trip last March, I got the idea that maybe I could surprise him with a trip for his 50th birthday. Well it turns out I'm horrible at planning surprises so I just…
