Portugal May 20th to June 8, 2025   Lisbon We bid Carvoeiro in The Algarve goodbye and drove north to Lisbon where we’ll join our Rick Steve’s Tour the next day. Navigating the return of the rental car was a challenge at the airport, but after a few good laughs we found the rental car […]

Portugal May 20th to June 8, 2025   This year we joined the more than 10 million visitors who vacation in Portugal each year. You can now understand the protests in Europe about over tourism. It’s a Catch 22. The money from tourism helps the economy, but it drives up living costs for locals. My [...

January 2025 Maui or Kauai? Which island should you visit if you can only do one? This was our second trip to Hawaii. It was our 25th anniversary and what better place to celebrate than Hawaii. We used our Alaska Airlines Companion Fare to purchase our tickets. We paid extra to fly Premium Class on....

Rocky Mountain High: Breckenridge, Colorado August 2024 After being house bound while my husband recovered from rotator cuff and bicep tear surgery, we took a short trip to Breckenridge. During the summer, you can actually get reasonable rates on VRBO. We did two great hikes: Hoosier Pass Loop Trail Our first full day we decided to hike Hoosier Pass Loop located just outside Breckenridge....

WHERE’S DEBI Okay folks, I’m still here. Life got busy, traveling slowed down, body parts keep breaking…But at my age, who knows what could happen. And why does Medicare keep asking if I have loose rugs in the house. Back in February, I got the bright idea of only traveling with carry-on luggage. No more checked bags. No more lost luggage....

Pagosa Springs, Colorado October 2023 I never intended to blog this adventure, but, sometimes, there are just some adventures you want to capture and share. In Colorado, the aspen trees typically peak their golden foliage mid to late September. However, nature isn’t necessarily on our time clock. It was mid-October and we hit the peak time in Southern Colorado. The drive from Alamosa, Colorado (where we visited Great Sand Dunes National Park) to Pagosa Springs along US Hwy 160 was on fire with the golden Aspens....

Backyard Colorado Road Trip September 2023 I got itchy feet (again!), so it’s time for another get away. Luckily, my husband, Chuck and I live in a place where you can drive to amazing places. Let’s head to Ouray, Colorado. Pronounced, “your ay” like hurray without the ‘h’. We decided to stay a night in Glenwood Springs to break up the 6-hour 27-minute drive to Ouray....

Trail Ridge Road— June 2023 Rocky Mountain National Park Trail Ridge Rd The reason my husband, Chuck, and I moved from Florida to Colorado was the mountains. We love the Rocky Mountains. It’s only an hour drive from our home to Rocky Mountain National Park and yet we’d never driven Trail Ridge Road from the Fall River entrance all the way to Grand Lake....

Pacific Northwest Road Trip— Day 11 May 2023 Mount Rainier National Park This was our last day before heading home. We had a lot of exploring and wanted to get an early start. The sky had cleared and there were spectacular views of Mount Rainier. We got coffee and breakfast food at the café in the inn. If it had been warmer, we could have sat outside on the porch surrounded by beautiful views of the mountain....
