We leave today on our next trip. In fact when this posts, 6AM, we ought to be in the TSA line or the boarding area of the Raleigh Airport - no trailer this time. Travel is great therapy for me. I love the new, the unexpected things you find, the interesting places and often more interesting people you meet, and the fact that you cannot see everything to the end, like this beautiful path at the Campbell Folk School. You wind and twist but the whole journey is a unique experience. Sometimes not exactly what you would choose, occasionally frustrating, but always rewarding and learning. This trip will take us to several National Park sites, most of them new to us. As usual we will be posting every day with a two day delay, new posts from this trip will begin on Thursday this week. What is very different about this is that on Friday the C2C2C Westward leg actually begins for Geof and Kellen with a short drive in the evening to Wilmington, NC so the trip can begin wheels on the Atlantic Ocean beach. Posting for that leg will also be every day as well with posts from Kellen, Geof and maybe me if they send me any photos - and will start, I hope, on Sunday but Monday for certain. So two places to check each day. Thanks for coming on the journey with us.

If you are interested, we will visit five parks in CA, 1 in NV plus three state parks and two NWR, 3 to 5 in AZ and I hope to get a couple with Kellen.
