September 8 – Grace’s 23rd birthday. I woke her up and informed her that I was 23 when I got married, which was a scary thought. By daylight it was a lot easier to see where we were. I mean,…
Park City/Deer Valley, the Salt Flats, and Nevada
September 7. We got breakfast in Park City, then I drove Grace around to some of the neighborhoods where I have been looking at real estate…mostly on line, but also in person. Hard to believe that it had only been…
Mt. Rushmore and Wyoming
September 6. From Wall, South Dakota it was not a bad drive to Mount Rushmore. Unfortunately, it was not ideal viewing weather. Grace claimed that she could easily locate an umbrella and raincoat in the jammed car, but I was…
Minnesota, South Dakota and the Badlands
September 5. It was pouring in Rochester, Minnesota when we got on the road, and it was pouring all the way through Minnesota. While not very nice to drive in, the weather had the beneficial effect of convincing Grace that…
More Chicago, and some setbacks
September 4 We woke up to another brilliant day in Chicago. The plan: Millennium Park, a boat tour, then get on the road again by mid-afternoon. In Millennium Park, where I pulled out my good DSLR camera for the first…

Grace and Dana’s Adventure – Days 9 and 10 (Greece: Santorini…then home)
Thursday, May 28, 2015 This was the final day of our trip. After breakfast on our little balcony overlooking the caldera, we headed out. Throughout the trip Grace had been talking about taking a boat trip to the volcano in the…
Grace & Dana’s Adventure – Day 8 (Greece – Santorini)
Wednesday, May 27, 2015 After breakfast on our balcony, we walked back into Oia. Sure, there are lots of people, but there’s a breathtaking view every ten feet. The stores were adorable, but we were seriously hampered by our lack…
