As always, things changed. Last night we were going to try for an oceanside county park, but then we got to thinking differently (always a dangerous thing) and suddenly we were going to Riverside, 120 . . .

The forecast for the Hoh Rain Forest turned out to be just as ridiculous as I suspected. Partly cloudy? 61 degrees? I couldn’t see any difference between the rain of yesterday . . .

Cape Disappointment is another great state park along the Washington coastline. It's too bad we can't stay. It has everything (nice campsites near the ocean, full hookups, . . .

We are in Yosemite at last, and it's great. The weather is beautiful (upper 60s, sunny, and dry, low 30s at night), the pines are tall, and the granite of the sheer cliffs is glowing . . .

Some time ago I was “tagged” by my friend Rich C, who writes a blog of his own about his life in Prescott AZ. I think that being tagged means I am supposed to write seven things about myself . . .

You’ll never guess what today is. But if you do, for bonus credit you can guess how old I am. There are subtle clues contained in this blog entry.

This blog entry has nothing to do with our travels, but instead someone else’s travels. I received word yesterday that our friend Herschel Shosteck succumbed to cancer.

Apparently I startled a few people by casually mentioning that this blog will end in about a week. I’ve talked about this on and off for the past year, but never declared a firm end date until . . .

With great regret, I’m closing the Tour of America blog today. This blog was started to document our 6-month voyage in an Airstream trailer, back in October 2005. The trip exploded into . . .

As you can see, the blog is undergoing a makeover. It’s far from complete but I should have it tweaked into shape in a week or two. All of the old blog content is here, but occasionally you may find . . .

I got up early to get six hours of work in, before we headed out to the Colorado Mineral and Fossil Show. It’s one of the biggest in the country, but we wouldn’t have known about it if not . . .

One night in Rocky Mountain National Park is like one bite of a chocolate cake. We’ll come back for seconds, the next chance we get.
