We spent a few days in San Francisco. We had beautiful weather and had an enjoyable visit.

Mountain Home was our go-to camping spot for years because of the beautiful sequoia trees that dominate the park. It was great to return.

Camping is our favorite way to unwind and reset and this summer we went to a different section of the Sierra Mountains.

On Sunday mornings when there is little traffic, the Santa Monica mountains are just a short drive from our home.

Australia was our last stop after Jakarta and Bali. We drove The Great Ocean Road, visited vineyards near Adelaide, and of course Sydney.

We visited Jakarta in November for the IFTA conference. It was a short visit and a chance to catch up with old friends from around the world

This was our first trip to Bali and we partook in cooking classes, snorkeling and absorbing the beauty of the tropics.

John and I enjoy visiting the dessert and after the recent rains spent a few days in Joshua Tree hiking and relaxing.

We had the opportunity to visit Dubai and it was a great experience.

Our friends invited us to join them on a trip to Santa Fe and we made a road trip of it.
