Travel in a Time of Covid-19

​My husband has been going stir crazy ever since the drought of TV sports began, eager to go somewhere. Anywhere!  We cancelled last week's trip to Baltimore to see our daughter and family. In April we intended to return to where we used to live in Brazil for a wedding. We won’t be going. We hadn’t planned a road trip to Montana, but that’s where we went. 
​
In February my mother-in-law flew out to see her daughter’s family an hour south of Seattle for a birthday and a couple concerts. (Hey! This is a musical family. We’re very supportive of one another’s performances.)

​I am currently visiting my daughter and her family in Seoul, South Korea. When I called to say good-by to my dad before leaving the US, he said, “I guess you haven’t been watching the news.”

The People We Have Become

​​​We’ve been getting together at Waycross Camp in southern Indiana for four years now. We are only a few (7 this year), but then the Tudor Hall class of ’69 was only 32 and that counts Inez, the foreign exchange student. We weren’t particularly friends in high school. Some of us rarely spoke. We were threatened by the academic achievements or coolness factor of others, but the passage of forty-plus years has mellowed all that. We are who we are, and that's OK.

America the Beautiful, Part 1

My husband and I have recently returned from a road trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Usually on road trips a favorite praise song runs through my head, becoming a sort of theme song of the journey. This time the song that kept returning to my mind was “America the Beautiful.” We saw no shortage of amber waves of grain and purple mountain majesties, but it was not the familiar first verse that ran through my mind so much as the later verses.
​     America! America! God mend thine ev’ry flaw,
     Confirm thy soul in self-control,
     Thy liberty in law!

My husband and I recently returned to Osijek, Croatia, where he taught cross-cultural communications and I classified library books. We also spent a few days in fabulous Dubrovnik on the Dalmatian Coast of the Adriatic Sea. You can read all about it and see pictures on my travel blog, Wide-eyed Wanderer. Choose from the February and March 2016 entries, or go to Day 1 and click <newer post> at the bottom of each.

Beth Moore Comes to South Korea (Sort of)

When I went to Korea to visit my daughter, I wasn't expecting to attend the Beth Moore Living Proof Simulcast, but a friend agreed to take Simeon for the day and we went. 

We were about 40 women in the conference room of the "Supergym", the largest gym on base. The local Protestant Women of the Chapel had invited the groups from other bases on the peninsula. A bus came from Yongsan in Seoul. They all wore little hats to identify themselves as a group. Erika will be moving to Yongsan in a few months so she was eager to meet them.

One day on our recent visit to Split, Croatia, we took a city bus to the late Roman city of Salona.

Salona, a city of 70,000 people, was the birthplace of the future Emperor Diocletian in the fourth century. You can see the modern city of Silon in the background.

A Park for HOW MANY  Years?

Ghosts and ghouls are not my thing so let's see  more pictures instead. The city of Split, Croatia, sits on a peninsula on the Dalmatian Coast of the Adriatic Sea. On a recent visit to celebrate our fortieth wedding anniversary, my husband and I hiked along the ridge of the Marjam hill, set aside as a park by the Roman Emperor Diocletian in the fourth century.The hike began with ninety-nice steps to this look out point--and that was only the beginning.
