April 27, 2026. Well, after 4 1/2 months and almost 10,000 miles…we are home. Feeling pretty accomplished. The trip was mostly amazing. The way this country changes from mile to mile is amazing. The people, the scenery, the food and the weather. Never a dull moment. Maybe the best part was seeing many of our […]
April 23-26, 2026. After saying so long to Mom and Noah, we were back in “delivery mode”. The object here is to get as far as possible each day…and not to worry about where we were spending the night. Our 1st night out of Colorado was in Abilene, KS. Stayed with a lovely couple on
April 21-23, 2026. Colorado Springs is about 4 hours due north from Taos…so we stopped by to spend a few days with Jeff’s mother and his youngest brother, Noah. So great to be able to catch up in a very relaxed environment. Mom is doing great…and the horses are as well.

April 20-21, 2026. We bypassed Taos on our way west as the weather in January could be a little rough. So here we were a few months later…and it was amazing. The art is all around, and the food was delicious. We got up early to be able to visit the Taos Pueblo…a fascinating look
April 19-20, 2026. We had to stop in Moab. The town is an interesting mix of hikers and hippies, ice cream parlors and cheap motels. Amazing. Our day at Arches NP was spectacular. The rock formations are just stunning. This was a great time of year to visit…no crowds! If you need perspective, try surrounding

April 18-19, 2026 Our next stop on the eastern heading was a small town a few mile south of Salt Lake City. The drive was long…through mostly desert and the famous Bonneville Salt Flats. We did not have time to stop in SLC…but could see that it is a beautiful city. We stayed on a
April 17-18, 2026. Well…we had to head east at some point. Because the weather is still fairly unpredictable in the Sierras this time of year, we took advantage of a weather window that would get us safely through the Donner pass and into Nevada. The mountains were amazing…and still snow at the summit. (We learned
April 13 – 17 2026 We’ve packed a lot into this week, so we stayed in Petaluma for a few days. So great for Lea Ann to be able to see fellow skating choreographer Karen Kresge, who invited us over to her beautiful Sonoma home for dinner (Karen’s husband Vincent is an amazing chef!). JoJo

April 10-13 2026. So, Lea Ann was born in Mill Valley…and even though she moved east as a baby, she’s always felt a special connection to the area. Lucky for us, our great friends SuSu and JC Callahan happen to live in Mill Valley! JC just got a new Kamodo Joe grill…so we had an

April 9-10 2026. Timber Cove is on the coast about 20 miles north of Bodega Bay. The coastal route is spectacular! Twists and turns along the Pacific…25MPH max! Our campsite was literally on the edge of a cliff (see photo), and just up the road was the Timber Cove Resort. What a stunning place for
