About Us

In 1985, I graduated from Boston College University and headed off to Jamaica, West Indies. As a Volunteer ( Jesuit Volunteer Program) I was stationed in the capital, Kingston, not far from the ghetto township of Trenchtown, made famous by Bob Marley. Little did I know that I would meet my future husband(serving as a Peace corp volunteer at the time) and that we would share such an incredible life together traveling and searching for adventure, amongst other things.
So that is how we got to this point. Collectively between us we have lived in Jamaica, West Indies, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Washington State, Maine, New York, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We have traveled out of country to New Zealand, Japan, Germany, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Austria, Costa Rica, Grand Cayman,Canada, and British Columbia. The list of states that we have had the opportunity to vacation in is long but include such favorites as Colorado, North Carolina, Arizona, California, Washington, Georgia, Nevada and of course Vermont. We have kayaked and camped through the Arctic Circle, fished on commercial fishing boats in Alaska, sailed through the Caribbean on a 26 foot schooner, mountain biked in Arizona, surfed in Costa Rica and gone horse back riding in the Rockies. Traveling with our kids, Meddie and Nolan has added a whole new dimensions to our adventures, sometimes good, sometimes not so good, but always interesting!

In addition, every year, for the last 15 years, we have been lucky enough to get together with Dan's family in such beautiful locations as the Outer Banks, Vancouver, British Columbia, Nevada and Colorado, just to name a few.

We have been fortunate!!!

It will take time but eventually we would like to share these travels with our readers to inspire them and to assist them in making their own travel plans. We welcome any comments or participation in these ongoing posts. Exchanging of stories is part of the plan.

We hope to hear about your own adventures and travels.
