http://adventuresinwandaland.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Sunday, July 20, 2014. The next day we got up and went into Arches National Park and Canyonlands. We had been to Zion and Bryce National Parks before, but never to Arches, so this was a real treat. Delicate Arch from across the valley - so many people that there was no available parking at the trailhead. Above - Tower of Babel. The next three pictures are in Canyonlands. There was a collective "ahhh" from the group of riders around us as they crossed, ...

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Sunday, April 19, 2015. A trip to squeeze grandchildren. It's always fun to make a trip to see the grandkids. In January, we flew to North Carolina and saw the grandchildren there. Last week I traveled to Denver to see the rest of my grandchildren. It is always fun to be made a fuss over, and this trip was no different. Gemma is the redhead in the middle with long hair. Donovan is playing in a more competitive league this year and it is fun to see how ...

With St. George depicted several times:. The other stop was at Nessebar, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It sits on a rocky peninsula on the black sea. (I didn't take this picture! We were told that...

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. Cancun - Part 2. We first went up in a tower-type ride that gave you a 360 degree view of the park:. The brightly colored buildings housed a museum that had rooms made up with antiques from the Spanish Colonial period. There was a greenhouse with some exotic flowers:. We saw wild boar. There were cougars,. Interesting entertainment, re-enacting Mayan traditional dances and ceremonies,. This horse actually posed for me! When I t...

There were a few mishaps, but we had a great time:. And the scenery was beautiful:. Gemma (actually looking at the camera sort of). Because the Whitleys were here longer and it cooled down a b...

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Saturday, October 20, 2012. So, the day after Rebecca's wedding we drove to Jackson, Wyoming so that I could meet up with the workshop. I was told that these antlers are all collected at the wildlife preserve and are shed by the elk. In other words, no animals were harmed in making these arches. And there were several in town! That made it really nice to get help and feedback as we were out shooting. Some of the wildlife:. I swear she was posing in thi...

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Thursday, May 30, 2013. What 70 looks like. Last Saturday, my brother turned 70 years old! It seems weird to have a brother that old but it won't be too many more months until I reach a milestone of my own. Sigh. Time marches on. It was a really fun weekend with lots of reminiscing and laughing. Lots of animated talking. Lots of delicious food. We really missed having Carolyn there and it was fun to Face Time with her. Above and below) Mark and I.

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Monday, April 20, 2015. Monterey, Point Lobos, Big Sur. Thursday morning, he called a whale watching company to see if they had room for us. They did. Mark said to the man on the phone, "I know you can't guarantee anything, but what are our chances of seeing a whale? The reply: "I haven't missed seeing one in a year and a half! The whole time we'd just look at each other and say, "This is so COOL! Sailboats in their berths at the harbor. Sea lions or s...

Grandmothers are just 25 year-olds in an older body. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. Almost forty-four years later. Mark and I recently made a trip to Hilton Head by way of Allison's house in Charlotte and spent time in Savannah, Georgia and Beaufort, South Carolina. Posts on those places to follow. And told her my name was Wanda and gave her my phone number. She asked if I wanted to give her a last name. I laughed and said that there was only one Wanda at my high school. (And in my mind I said,...A couple ...
