By now it’s the 2nd of the new year, and you’re probably waking up. Nonetheless, Happy New Year! We started the evening with a sunset. It just doesn’t ever get boring. There is a tradition here at Journey’s End, that we are all (staff and guests) invited to the landlord’s place across the street for […]

Merry Christmas to All!
Never have we wanted peace on earth more than this year! For those of you waiting for more posts, we’ve been a bit busy lately. Tomorrow is Christmas, and besides our proper English Christmas dinner, we should have time to do some catching up. One of the more curious things we’ve observed in Buddhist countries, […]
Feliz Navidad
Landed in Panama City via Miami. We had a driver waiting for us, as it was 10:30 in the evening on Christmas Eve. Our hotel, the Magnolia Inn, is in the old town, or Casco Viejo, and we drove through miles and miles of high rise buildings to get there. We thought it strange that […]
A Wee Visitor
We had a little visitor today. I was laying on the bed going through photos when I noticed movement in the window. Turns out… it was a monkey, I believe of the Squirrel Monkey variety. Turns out he was quite a natural model. Even though I’ve probably deleted about a hundred pics of him, there […]
Door County Grandma Turns 90 6 Months Prematurely !
Okay really! This doesn’t look like a 90 year old grandma. Well of course, that is because she isn’t. She’s only 89 and a half. The big event this summer in Door County was clearly the celebration of my mother’s 90th birthday. Granted, it doesn’t occur until January, but she decided to go ahead and […]
Flamenco
Turns out there is a lot of music and dance in Granada. We were walking down the street, hit the Plaza de Carmen, and lo and behold, there was a stage set up and a crowd gathered. On the stage were about 20-30 guitar players of all ages, as well as about 20-30 young girls […]
Lost at Sea. and Other Stuff
Lost at Sea So we had already spent the day in Tenerife in the Canary Islands, had dinner, and gone to the show. Somewhere after that, my beloved camera disappeared. Fortunately, I try to upload pictures every day or two, so you won’t be seeing any shots of the Canaries. You also won’t see some […]
Sunset Redux
Sunsets
Not to belabor the point, but both Ellen and I are sunset junkies. Latitude 1 B&B has not disappointed. There have been a few overcast dusks, but in general we have been treated to great sunsets most every night. Here are some of my favorites (click on any picture for slideshow mode):
Burst Update
Rather than a glum image of a hospital room, I chose the sunset tonight, with a kid playing on the beach. This was particularly great as I spent last night in Ellen’s room at the clinic on a love seat. (Not that it isn’t worse for her. It is.) It’s nice to be back at […]
