Time for a spring break road trip and Savannah, Georgia was calling. Roadtrip’s first stop though, at a national park along the way.
Mammoth Cave National Park sign.
Not a big fan of caves but this one is, well, mammoth in size and worth a visit. I signed up for the history tour, which featured two of the 400+ miles of the cave that has been explored and told the story of how its features have been gradually discovered over the years.
One of my goals for this summer was to bike out into the countryside early on weekend mornings. So far I’ve made it once early in the summer and twice in August, and enjoyed some peaceful beauty each ride.

Last winter I began thinking about a road trip to Idaho to visit our son Drew and his family. Then when he told us they had decided to move back to Georgia, I knew time was running out to visit Idaho. So I volunteered to help with the move. That resulted in an epic road trip involving 1700 train miles, about 2600 truck miles, 1150 air miles, and 300 car miles for a grand total of about 5750 miles, through 14 states in 12 days. (For comparison purposes, NY to LA and back is 5600 miles.) (more…)
