Full-Time RVing: On June 19, 1997,
we sold our house in Rochester, New York, and embarked on a 113,000 mile
trip around the continent. During the 4-year trip, we went to many
out-of-the-way spots, such as the Easternmost and Northernmost points of
North America (Cape Spear, Newfoundland and Point Barrow, Alaska).

travelogues.
Exploring Colorado: Since 2001, we have been living in Golden, Colorado, and have been exploring the nearby mountains, plains, and deserts of Colorado and adjacent states. A selection of favorite photos is in our Photo Album.
Home and Gardens: Our home is a 50-year-old ranch-style located a few blocks from the Colorado School of Mines campus in Golden. We've been busy planting lots of flowers and shrubs.
> New Motorhome:
To facilitate our new part-time RVing lifestyle, we've purchased a 32'
Winnebago Journey.
