About this blog

When my husband and I had both retired and decided we wanted to travel more, we listed some places we really wanted to see---a travel "bucket list," if you will. Some friends were booking trips abroad but there was so much of the USA we had yet to discover. We made the choice to go American and especially see as many national parks as we could. We are up to at leastt 8 now and they have all been beautiful!

The equation for this blog: Love 2 write + love 2 travel = travel blog
