Nashville Rocks

A friend of mine called me mid-September and said, “Sora, how would you like to go mid-week to Nashville, Tennessee and see what it’s like?” I said, “Sure, why not?” It had the ring of a definite new adventure. So we booked a ticket for a Monday morning and booked a return for Thursday evening.…

A Visit to the Edison and Ford Winter Estates

While visiting my family in Miami I decided to extend my visit to my girlfriend and her husband who live in Cape Coral. I was always intrigued with the idea of visiting the Edison and Ford Winter Estate in Fort Myers which is so close to Cape Coral and so I hit the road. I’m…

A Weekend in Vermont

Yes, it was time to get out of Dodge again and this time it was a weekend in Vermont. It took us with stops over 6 hours to get there but I was so glad to be leaving the city that I just dealt with it.Lol Our first stop on the way to Vermont was…

Lunch at an Amish Home

Well, it was time to head out of Dodge and so I booked a one day trip to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. I choose to visit Lancaster because the main event of the experience was to have lunch with an Amish family and my curiosity (having visited Lancaster many times before) was really peaked. Unfortunately, it rained…

Miami Photos

Jim Thorpe Pennsylvania

So it was time to head out of Dodge and I took a day bus trip to Hellertown, Pennsylvania and Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. In Hellertown, Pennsylvania we visitied the Lost River Caverns, nature’s underground wonderland. There was a guided walking tour but I must admit that I’m not a cave fan and so I didn’t…

Hudson River Fall Foliage Cruise

I discovered an opportunity to take a socially distanced Hudson River Fall Foliage Cruise. It was run by Circle Line Sightseeing at Pier 83 which is located at 12th Avenue and West 42nd Street. The date for the cruise was October 31st and so I thought what better way to spend Halloween with everything going…

Visiting the Crystal Cave

So I was lucky enough to find a day bus tour to Kutztown, PA to visit the historic Crystal Cave (an abundance of milky white formations that have been educating visitors now for 145 years) and then be able to enjoy a 40 minute train ride on board the WK & S in Kempton, PA.…
