Today (Monday) was a mixture of driving and sightseeing, beginning with Theodore Roosevelt National Park North Unit. The North Unit is less visited than the South Unit and, therefore, seems quieter and more secluded. The scenery was (nearly) as beautiful as its southern counterpart, but with the exception of some bison, we did not see […]
Theodore Roosevelt National Park – South Unit
Today we left Downstream Campground and headed to Theodore Roosevelt National Park South Unit. (It’s quickly becoming more difficult to keep track of the day, since we’re out of our usual work schedules and daily routine. Phil and I often ask each other, “What day is it again?” I’m a creature of habit and live […]
Lewis & Clark Expedition and Knife River Indian Villages
Today we headed over to Fort Mandan Historic Site and the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center here in North Dakota, which presented a lot of well-designed, interactive exhibits and historical replicas with information about the Lewis & Clark expedition (particularly the winter from November 1804 into February 1805 spent here at Fort Mandan). One interesting […]
On our way
We finished packing up yesterday and hit the road. We were impressed with how efficiently we packed, and I feel fairly confident that we have *most* of what we’ll need for the next 5+ weeks minus the milk, bread, and whatnot that we’ll have to buy now and then. (Although admittedly, we had to stop […]
It’s Almost Time
We’re on the eve of the most epic trip of our lives. We leave tomorrow morning for a trip through 10 states and over 6,000 miles for a total of 5 1/2 weeks on the road. We’ve been planning and anticipating this trip for over a year, and it’s almost here!
Hawaii 2016
These pictures are from our honeymoon trip to Kaua’i in September of 2016. For the first few days, we were incredibly jetlagged and tired from all the bustle of the wedding, but we made the rounds of the island and fell in love with it.
Wedding 2016
These are the pictures from our wedding on September 17, 2016, in Columbus, IN. Ceremony was held at St. Bartholomew Catholic Church with reception at Columbus Youth Camp.
Florida 2015
These pictures are from a trip we made to Florida from late December 2015 to early January 2016. We went to the Everglades, which was experiencing a particularly awful winter in terms of the mosquito population. We saw some beautiful scenery but basically got out of there as quickly as we could, literally killing mosquitoes […]
Spring Mill State Park 2015
These are some pictures we took of the pioneer village and various beautiful scenery at Spring Mill State Park in September 2015.
Europe 2015
These are a portion of our pictures from our trip to Europe in 2015, which included Paris, Venice, Florence, and Rome. At the end of our trip, a backpack with camera was stolen while we were on the tourist train to the airport, losing most of our pictures. Fortunately, Megan had already uploaded the most […]
