Another Perspective Worth Seeing

Wed, 4 May 2011 | By yvigoddard | Views [267]

The pictures I have posted were from a missions trip I took to the Dominican Republic. I went with an organization I am involved with on campus, called Chi Alpha. We left on March 4, 2011 and spent 8 days in the beautiful country, returning on March 12.... Read more >

Food, Glorious Food!

Wed, 4 May 2011 | By vagabonds | Views [783]

It’s possible to eat healthy aboard the ship, but judging from the lines (both food- and waist-) not many do.   Each night one of the dinner offerings – appetizer, main course and dessert – total fewer than 800 calories – but only one.   No ... Read more >

Anchors Aweigh

Mon, 2 May 2011 | By vagabonds | Views [917]

It’s a pretty good bet that my ancestors (and yours) that immigrated to the US came by steamship from Ireland.   So it is fitting that we are leaving in much the same way, although a bit more posh.   And while their first view of America was ... Read more >

CDT Here I come!

Feathered Friends

Thu, 28 Apr 2011 | By vagabonds | Views [864]

We packed the car, locked the doors and put out the trash for the last time on Sunday.  April 24 is our anniversary and we wanted it to be memorable.  We spent it at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, where we were married 17 blissful years ago.  Then ... Read more >

An a-Maine-zing time in New York (I'm so sorry...)

Wed, 27 Apr 2011 | By elis82 | Views [1979] | Comments [4]

From Montreal, we had a 10 hour or so bus trip to Portland in Maine (not Oregon), via Boston. There is nothing quite like the Greyhound to see the difference between America and Canada. Canada obviously spends a lot of money on maintaining the standards ... Read more >

Packing It In

Sat, 23 Apr 2011 | By vagabonds | Views [779]

"What are you bringing with you?" is the second most asked question.  The first, of course, is "You're moving where ?"  Well, you bring as much for 10 years as you bring for three months - or two weeks.  We each have one wheelie bag ... Read more >
