Capitol Reef: Utah’s Forgotten Park
Have you visited Capitol Reef National Park in Utah? It’s been on our boomer travel list for a long time.

For sheer natural beauty, southern Utah […]
Driving the Alpine Loop in One Day on a Boomer Road Trip Adventure
Is it possible to drive the Alpine Loop on a one-day itinerary? Yes, it is. Alan and I enjoyed this scenic drive on trip to southwestern Colorado. The Alpine Loop in the San Juan Mountains introduces off-roaders to high-country scenery and Colorado mining history. It’s best explored on a 2 or 3-day Alpine Loop itinerary […]
4th of July in the Bitterroot Valley
Does this photo from Hamilton, Montana’s Saturday market look familiar to our baby boomer readers? That’s right, I used it for last year’s 4th of July Saturday’s scene. Why am I posting it again? Because it’s my favorite photo depicting small town Independence Day celebrations — the kind that will be happening across the U.S. […]
Car Club Fun in the Kootenay Rockies

Take a Walk…in New York City
I’m a baby boomer who likes to walk. Are you? When I visit New York City, I could walk all day soaking up the Big Apple’s energetic vibe. Last year when I attended TBEX, walking through Greenwich Village on the way to my lodging in Chelsea was a delight, although mighty hot. In today’s guest […]
Pet Airways: The All Pets, All the Time Airline
When it comes to offering advice on traveling with pets, I’m not the baby boomer to give it. Alan and I are on the go too much to own pets. However Edie Jarolim from Will My Dog Hate Me? knows all about pet travel. Remember when she wrote about taking your dog on the road […]
