Almost no rain yesterday and none today! It is nice arriving to the hostel being dry. Today was warm (60) and quite windy. Temps (highs) are supposed to be back in the 40s in 2 days. Thanks for following along. Estella to Logrono

Tomorrow I am doing a long day (18 miles, so not too long) but into a small town, so wifi may be weak. That is why I am posting 2 days instead of 3. Anyway – all is good. I feel fine physically. No blisters or sore body parts. It has been surprisingly quiet. ThanksContinue reading “Pamplona to Estella”

My trip is off and walking. I am 3 days and about 42 miles in. I feel great, so that is nice. It is very quiet. I will probably post on a three day schedule. Thanks for following along. St Jean to Pamplona

I leave January 1 for a winter walk on the Camino Frances across northern Spain. Elizabeth has chosen to stay warm in Phoenix, so I am off on a solo adventure. Like on the AT – I am going alone, but there will be lots of new friends to meet along the way. I haveContinue reading “Gary is off to Spain”

This will be our last post for a while. Rangeley and I (G) head out Friday to drive to the east coast to visit family, then head to Ohio to visit our Amish friends. In the past we have journaled a trip like this. We are down to 2 National Parks remaining, but we willContinue reading “The Farm at Lake Clark”

We have been a bit slow to post this one. Another amazing trip. We love Alaska and look forward to the two remaining Parks on our list – Glacier Bay and Wrangell St Elias. Hopefully next summer. I am off to the east with Rangeley in a few days. Elizabeth will fly to Boston. WeContinue reading “Lake Clark”

The bear viewing at Brooks Falls lived up to our very high expectations. We are having a great time here in Alaska. We will post Lake Clark when we arrive home. Two days ago the high was 49. This mornings low was 37. It is going to be tough to return to the Phoenix heat.Continue reading “Katmai National Park”

We thoroughly enjoyed our return trip to Talkeetna and the flight around Denali the mountain. We are in Lake Clark now having an awesome time. We will be posting Lake Clark and Katmai separately at the end of the week. Denali – Round 2

Another amazing adventure visiting our wonderful National Parks. The Parks are amazing, but the journeys we have been on are incredible. Kobuk and Gates draw the true Park chasers, so it is fun for us to meet people just as _____ as us. I will let you fill in the adjective there. (adventurous/obsessed….) We alsoContinue reading “Kobuk Valley National Park”

G – OK, we have been a bit slow posting this one. We had a great couple of days in Dublin, what an amazing journey, start to finish. I left Phoenix on April 10th and got home June 17th. Now in a few days we are off to Alaska continue our National Parks. We willContinue reading “Ireland”
