Just Married
After three years of roaming the woods and the world together, John & I get married in the Ocala National Forest with a very hiker-style wedding.
Primrose and the Big O Hike
Our first outing with Primrose this fall was a trip to the Big O Hike. It rained, of course, to and from Okeechobee. But we had a splendid road trip in our VW camper.
Iceland's Blue Lagoon
The world's largest hot tub is in the world's coolest country. Iceland's Blue Lagoon provides a superb soak in mineral-infused waters at a spa unlike all others.

John takes a hike across Hengilssvæðið (Hengill), the nearest active volcano to Reykjavik, with boiling springs and other geothermal features along its 140 km network of hiking trails.
Exploring Lava Tubes in Iceland
John journeys to the Center of the Earth down a lava tube in Iceland with the author of Icelandic Caves, Björn Hróarsson, as his group’s guide.
Absecon Lighthouse
First lit in 1857, it’s the third tallest lighthouse in the United States, 171 feet tall. Yet it’s tough to spot Absecon Lighthouse when you scan the skyline of Atlantic City.

Motorcycle Museum of Iceland
Horsepower has a different meaning in Akureyri than the rest of Iceland. It’s home to the Motorcycle Museum of Iceland, an impressive collection of working vintage motorbikes.
Iceland's Hot Stuff
Iceland is hot. Our September 2014 exploration of the country let us come face-to-face with steaming hot geologic features that are otherworldly in nature.
The Indiana Cave Trail
Four show caves in Southern Indiana make up the Indiana Cave Trail, providing close encounters of the underground kind with unusual karst features
