Musings on the adventures and misadventures of our travels to New England. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. 50 years is a long time! First of all, Sherry didn’t really know the path so at every turn she wasn’t exactly sure where to go. Not that it was all that difficult; after all we had the Atlantic Ocean on our right! Sherry texting while hiking. After four beautiful weather days in Portland, we headed off to Hartford for Randy’s 50. The Class of '61 donates $25 million to their alma mater. After Hartford, we h...

Musings on the adventures and misadventures of our travels to New England. Friday, May 27, 2011. Boston and Hannah Dustin. May 21, 2011. The Haymarket, the ultimate in farmers' markets! We were in Boston (henceforth, BOS—I find it so much easier to use the airline abbreviations for the various cities! Paul Revere in front of the Old North Church. The lunch crowd in front of Faneul Hall. And Phi Beta Kappa! Independence was announced here! Saturday we bagged the graduation (sorry, Jilly! We walked the Fre...

Musings on the adventures and misadventures of our travels to New England. Saturday, July 2, 2011. The Badlands are NOT bad! The Badlands of South Dakota. We stayed with the Nobles for two days, went to the House on the Rock, had dinner one night at the Grumpy Troll—very good—and played bridge. All in all a very nice visit. From Chicago we headed to Rapid City SD via Sioux Falls SD to visit our 49. Randy at the same spot in the badlands. We couldn’t believe it because in Ohio, just a few miles prev...

http://takemeouttotheballpark.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Take me out to the ballpark. . . 30 baseball parks in 84 days! Thursday, February 19, 2015. Random thoughts about our SBT (Super Baseball Trip) . . . I am getting very excited about our SBT and reading everything I can get my hands on, both online and in—Gasp! In the Tickets and Reservations folder I have our opening day tickets to the Diamondbacks vs. Actually being there, in the ballpark with thousands of other fans, is more than half the fun!

Take me out to the ballpark. . . : January 2015

Take me out to the ballpark. . . 30 baseball parks in 84 days! Thursday, January 1, 2015. The sports pages and baseball scorebooks . . . Always before this I have avoided reading the sports pages. So boring! I thought that perhaps I should start trying to understand why the male half of the population (and a few aberrant females) seems to not be able to start the day without either reading the sports pages or watching some sport on tv or cell phone. Whether there was an error and who made it (e8 or e9?

Take me out to the ballpark. . . 30 baseball parks in 84 days! Friday, July 3, 2015. So why did the Rockies beat the Giants? McCovey Cove and the San Francisco Bay Sailboats. Baseball views don't get much better than this! After finding time for an enjoyable visit with my old Roomie from nursing school, Helen, we headed for the San Francisco Bay area and the Giants and the Oakland As. And our luck finally ran out. Big time! To tow us somewhere. Where? We’ll deal with all that when we actually GET h...

http://ryansnewenglandtrip.blogspot.com/2011/06/b52s-and-portland.html
Musings on the adventures and misadventures of our travels to New England. Monday, June 13, 2011. I was sorry to see the graffitti. Part of the memorial. Randy and part of a B52 wing. After this we needed sustenance so we ate at the Black Frog, a restaurant with the most creative menu I’ve ever seen. Check it out here. 1 A deer becomes a moose at age 4. 2 Yes, we are in favor of Plum Creek's proposal.you wanna fight about it? 3 The weekend after Labor Day. 4 38 below zero with a 77 degree below wind chill.
