Rambling with Russ

Welcome! Marjorie & I have visited 48 states, 9 Canadian provinces, 26 European countries, plus Vietnam, Brazil, Argentina, Costa Rica, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Australia, New Zealand, and Tahiti. And our own Northeast offers many options for day trips and B-and-Bs. I've shared trip journals with a loyal (or long-suffering) readership of family and friends. After retiring I started this blog hoping others will find my accounts and photos interesting, and maybe find useful travel tips.

New England Outings

New England Outing

May 2016

We’re finally getting around to visiting Alice & Rick (friends from my undergrad days at the U of Rochester) in their new digs in Pelham NH. Tho a mainly social visit, can’t help but do some trip planning. Pelham itself doesn’t seem too promising; TripAdvisor list only 2 “Things to Do”: Pinball Wizard Arcade, Chunky’s Cinema. But I did find a few interesting spots for our drive to & fro thru Vermont and New Hampshire.

Up early on Wed. 5/25. We’ve been busy around the yard trimming shrubs and Marjorie has the garden already in good shape. Lots of yard bags and bundles to the street for pickup. A sunny AM, headed to the 80s today, appropriate for the Memorial Day weekend unofficial start of summer. A pretty drive to Bennington VT, past our 1^st Moose Crossing sign.
