My back went out a couple of months ago and I was afraid we would have to scrap our trip to the Petersen Automotive Museum. Fortunately it has subsided enough that I think it will be fine besides, I want to go. Right now we're sitting at the table having breakfast. We don't have to … Continue reading Heading to Los Angeles in spite of my back

Last Day in Fuquay and it’s another gorgeous day
Another wonderful breakfast made by Patty. She's such an awesome person and a great cook. We took another walk around the area, this time heading out through the Fuquay-Varina Mineral Springs Park. Really pretty little park and there are roadways with little traffic and connecting dirt roads to extend your walk. We headed on over … Continue reading Last Day in Fuquay and it’s another gorgeous day
Beautiful Day in Fuquay-Varina
Got up this morning to beautiful blue skies, cooler temps and low humidity. After one of Patty's wonderful breakfasts Chris and I set off on a short walk around the neighborhood. We saw a few limbs down but for the most part people had already cleaned up the worst of it. We saw some great … Continue reading Beautiful Day in Fuquay-Varina
Good Morning Fuquay! It’s Raining
Michael hasn't made it's presence known other than lots of rain. They're predicting high winds but we are far enough away that it shouldn't be too much of an issue...I hope. It's pouring rain right now and the wind is blowing pretty hard. Spending the day sitting in Chris's folks living room staying dry and … Continue reading Good Morning Fuquay! It’s Raining

Sitting in the San Jose airport waiting to board our Southwest flight to Raleigh. We had a good breakfast at San Jose Joe's with plenty of coffee.

Off we go to Fuquay-Varina Again

The only place I could get a room in San Jose for a manageable price near the airport when I … Continue reading Off we go to Fuquay-Varina Again
Long Day of Driving Back to Portland, ME
Today was sadly our last morning in Saint John. We got up early, showered, finished packing and walked down to Cora's for breakfast. The food was still good but the service this time was pretty bad. We were seated at a table by the window, handed menus and left. After about 10 minutes, I got … Continue reading Long Day of Driving Back to Portland, ME
Last Full Day in Canada
We are staying in the Chipman Hill Suites at 76 Union Street. They have the distinction of being one of the few buildings that predate the fire that destroyed Saint John in 1877. They were built in 1869 and were at the boundary of the area that was destroyed. There are 3 such neo-classical buildings … Continue reading Last Full Day in Canada
First Full Day in Saint John, New Brunswick
Got up this morning, made coffee and Chris started looking for a place to have breakfast while I showered. Another surprise, there are very few places that serve breakfast here in old town Saint John. We finally ended up in a place called Chez Cora, which is a chain here in Canada. Both food and … Continue reading First Full Day in Saint John, New Brunswick
