2004 Drive ME-AK-CA-ME: August 2004
http://dreselly.blogspot.com/2004_08_01_archive.html
August 19, 2004. 12/29/2010: This was the first blog (using Blogspot.com) I wrote, but is not about the earliest trip I blogged. It is written in both past and present tenses. To make this read in chronological sequence I had to attach external fake dates in caps to it, like "August 19, 2004" above. Real narrative dates are like "August 11" below. There are 2 chapters beyond the "Oregon to California" chapter in the list at right. Links to some of my other trip blogs:. Vietnam and Finland (1967),. Drove ...

Labrador-Newfoundland Drive 2010: Newfoundland to home
http://dresellylabrador.blogspot.com/2010/06/newfoundland-home.html
Monday, May 22, 2000. I started writing this section at L'Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland, on June 23. That was our first night in a B&B on this trip. As with all other Canadian B&Bs we've used, except one, it was an excellent value with good amenities, a breakfast with local specialties (like partridgeberry muffins), and the opportunity to meet interesting guests and the owner. To show we don't whitewash Canada, our restaurant supper the previous evening was an overpriced disappointment. Tidal range is a...

Labrador-Newfoundland Drive 2010: May 2000
http://dresellylabrador.blogspot.com/2000_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 30, 2000. This is an account of a drive starting June 11, 2010 from our Maine home to Gaspe to Labrador to Newfoundland to Nova Scotia and back home, in our 2006 Prius. We are Dick and Margery Dreselly, very senior citizens who retired in 1987 to Brunswick, Maine. A friend suggested we show what we looked like, so here's a 2004 photo. Again, just Newfoundland. The arc is so new that there wasn't much about it on the Internet, but now see these: click. Government and economy (click). We are i...

2004 Drive ME-AK-CA-ME: Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Home
http://dreselly.blogspot.com/2004/08/nevada-and-arizona.html
August 04, 2004. Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Home. Those are mud puddles, not stepping stones. Looking across the Colorado River to the Phantom Ranch hostel beside the North Kaibab trail leading 14 miles to the North Rim, a thousand feet higher than the South Rim. Road access to the North Rim is long, so there are far fewer people there. Trails to the South Rim have lots of mule manure, while trails to the North Rim have none. Short trail from Colorado River beside stream to the Ranch. Marge and I s...
