I have been exploring our flight options for our Greece trip in June/July. As has always been the case, it’s darn expensive to fly to Greece and much less expensive to stay there a little longer. Accordingly, Beth has wondered aloud, “Should we extend our 11-day trip on the mainland to include some island hopping?” …
Today, we are in Westchester, NY for errands and a visit to Phelps Memorial Hospital where my stepdad, Jim, is recovering from pneumonia and an emergency pacemaker operation. The amount of cumulative stress around medical stuff for Jim and my family members is staggeringly intense. And, we know, just one more stop on the road …
When traveling or staying home, the goal remains the same: connect with others by being open, curious, creative and loving. And laughing! While in Sedona, I found myself switching between my inner child and adult selves. Sometimes, I enjoyed writing song lyrics on my own or playing and singing with Beth, Sandi, and Paul. Other …
It’s bigger, much bigger than I thought it was. In fact, a short trip for a bird from where we were standing (the south rim) to a nearby landing spot is eight miles. It’s also a mile deep. This sucker is big. To be honest, I was overwhelmed by the immense grandeur of the Grand …
If your are reading this before Part 1, I suggest going back to yesterday’s post on bethandscottsadventure.com. If, however, you enjoy reading the ending first, be my guest! Matt introduced himself and his friend, Steve. We were shaking hands as Beth, Paul and Sandi came out of the restaurant and joined us. “Guys, I’d like …
“I can verify with 100% certainty that I don’t have a clue what I’m talking about.” – Greg Eisenberg, from “”Letting Go Is All We Have To Hold Onto.” I came here, as I did with Costa Rica and intend to with Greece in June, to have fun and learn, but also to touch into …
Today, we went to three, local places that featured examples of dwellings and petroglyphs of the Hopi and other tribes that called this place home for 700 years. We began the day in the Cochino National Forest at what is currently known as the V Bar V Ranch. Note: like the other two stops, this …
My Sunday began, as it usually does, with Beth’s yoga class. I don’t actually practice yoga lately (a topic for another day), but I get up, set up and film her live class each Sunday morning . Filming is an opportunity for me to do one of the things that has recently become more important …
Well, it’s true. Sedona, Arizona is jaw-droppingly cool. Today, the four of us took a leisurely hike on a path through a part of the country that everyone ought to see. Really. We kept saying, “There is no bad vista here. Turn around three hundred and sixty degrees and it’s awesome in every direction.” After …
I am writing this from a Holiday Inn 3 miles from Newark Airport just before 9pm. Tomorrow, we fly to Phoenix on a 6:40 am flight just before the snow begins anew. Our original itinerary had us leaving from Sullivan County to make a plane before 11, but that flight was cancelled and we needed …
