July 13, 2021 Waiting for our driver to fetch and deliver us to JFK. We have an 8:30 pm flight on IcelandAir. Yep, after 20 months, we have decided to resume our adventures and resurrect this travel blog. I posted about our summer 2020 and our Pandemic Project last week…but I’m still rusty…so bear with...
Continue readingWe couldn’t travel, so we spent the second half of 2020 changing our environment. During the early months in our two person bubble, we’d spent time watching some of the HGTV home renovation shows, plus we’d just finished the complete tear down and reno of our Sarasota place, so we were up for the project....

We returned to Long Island on June 1, taking just two days to travel the 1248 miles from our condo in Sarasota to our home on Long Island. It was a very long two days… felt like twenty days, the cats were miserable and I felt like we were surrounded by Covid danger at every...

March 19, 2020. My mom would have been 97 today. She died four weeks after her 59th birthday. I miss her. I’ve missed her for 38 years. For months after she died I’d wait for her phone call at 4:20 every day. She’d call me on her way out of her office, just to check...
