Today we head BACK home.  Tomorrow we'll drive to Waukesha to the Mercedes dealer there who will hopefully fix our wheel sensors so we can get back on the road and met  up with Joe and Karen in NY.

2012-06-05-Venus Transit of the Sun

We watched some off the Venus transit across the Sun this afternoon.  Minutes after this shot, clouds covered the sun.

2012 -Poudre Canyon Fire

We drove some of the Poudre Canyon road this morning.

It's nothing short of a miracle that the fire didn't burn any of the homes in the area.  The fire fighters really did a great job.  Even though  the fire is contained, smoke is still visible.  We hope today's rain and no wind will help.

The 2012 Solar Eclipse

Solar Eclipse

We were able to watch the eclipse from start to finish - with a few clouds only at the very end.
Impressive!

2012 - May Eclipse Trip

We are camped at Lahontan SRC, near Fallon, NV - ready for the Eclipse

2012-2-28Huntington Beach SP

2012-2-26 to 3-1
Huntington Beach S.P., SC


This is a beautiful state park. We are camped in a beach-side site with trees all around.
There is a boardwalk to the beach - lovely white sand, with waves crashing in. Buffy got caught by the wash from a wave - dashed back to dry ground and never went close to the water again.
Today we start the home stretch. NC tonight, then WV, OH, IL and home.

Feb 24th - Walking tour of Savannah, GA


We spent several hours on a walking tour of old town Savannah.
Our guide was a wonderfully knowledgeable guy... with glaucoma. Good thing he knew his way around the area very well because he sure couldn't see where he was going. But he was full of information and fun to listen to. Even Buffy enjoyed the walk. We finished just as the sky darkened and thunder rumbled. By the time we got back to the truck rain was pouring down.
