Posted A Tale of Two Falls.

Happy kids, day’s fishing with dad and a guide, plus Mom, walking back after dinner.

Took my sister-in-law and my better half on a tour of my childhood haunts in Newcastle upon Tyne.

We stayed close to “our” castle. I’ve previously posted Our Castle in England.

This is real travel. My childhood friend’s neighbor’s bunnies demanded their attention for the longest time.

My little backpackers watch their train arrive at Edinburgh Waverly.

We did a lot of peering through gaps at Edinburgh Castle.

We climbed Arthur’s Seat, then visited Holyroodhouse, where the Queen stays when in Edinburgh. She wasn’t home.

Edinburgh, first evening, nephews and their parents in tow. Misty view from main shopping street, Princes Street.

Nephews on MSP carpet.

Posted Travels With Our Nephews, June 2016.

Cycled to Wedge Co-op for salmon, Minnesota asparagus, and focaccia. I like to spend our money in a welcoming place.

Gathered gear. We even have room for a frisbee and a hacky sack in our backpacks.

Moon, snowy mountains. My 8-year-old nephew’s artwork was a contrast to our hot 90° cycle ride to Dairy Queen.

Posted Lost Stories.

Cycled between Rushford and Houston in southern Minnesota, then restored ourselves with lefse.
