We Started Out With Good Intentions… #13
The first thing I saw was a Victorian house, or I thought it was, and I knew I wanted to go there first. Nine times out of ten, if I am going to explore an area, I have no idea where I wanted to go. Heading to Cheyenne, all I knew was it is the…

Good Friday Afternoon Adventures (there was more than one) #6
I would have gotten more pictures, but I there were some spots on this road that were just full of cars and there was road work in some areas, so it slowed me down and given that the weather was changing on me very quickly, I didn’t want to temp fate and tickets by taking…

I told my daughter that we needed a place that none of us had been to before or a type of cuisine we hadn’t eaten, or at least that I hadn’t eaten. My daughter started her search, and I think she is getting into my New Things journey. The choices were a seafood place or…
