Margate City is the second town south of Atlantic City. I am currently staying in Marven Gardens – a piece on the Monopoly Board. It is in the very north part of Margate. The Atlantic City boardwalk extends just beyond Ventor into Margate. Today I cycled from here to the north end of the boardwalkContinue reading “Atlantic City boardwalk – 50 years later”

I made it out of Center City Philly without incident. I drove to the address that I used to live and it was as it seemed from afar yesterday – the building had been updated and a new section added. I drove along Kelly Drive but did not go all the way to 3300 HenryContinue reading “Picking up where we left off 19 years ago”

I walked the 2 miles to where my car was parked this morning with trepidation – hoping it would not have a ticket. It did not. I changed out the day pass and walked home. I decided I would see appreciate more of the city if I were not on my bike worrying about carsContinue reading “Parking Bingo – I won”

I am posting early today as I hope I am too tired from too much fun later to be capable of writing a post. I am having drinks/dinner with 2 special friends and I intend to enjoy the evening. I spent about an hour on computer searching for affordable ways to park my car untilContinue reading “Parking craziness, baby geese and a regatta”

Today I rode 18 miles before I packed up and left Lewes. It was a beautiful day.. There was new yard art today. – It turned out to be a good omen when I found street parking in Philly just around the corner from my Airbnb. I am going to have to move it tomorrowContinue reading “I still love Philadelphia”

I also spent a fair amount of time looking at various news feeds. I went out to fill my car at aboutContinue reading “A beach walk, a bike ride and some strength training – I’m killing it on Day 2”

I decided to stop cable service in early April as I was going to be traveling for most of the next 3 months. I spent the 5 days I was back in Nashville last week binging on All Saints and didn’t do my usual check in with the news morning and evening, . I wasContinue reading “Wait – What?”

I left Nashville about 130 PM yesterday and made it to Durham NC about 1045 PM. I managed to only make one gas/toilet stop. Traveling with a bicycle does make staying in hotels more challenging. There is no easy way of getting the bike and suitcase into the hotel in one trip. I had breakfastContinue reading “On the Road”

Over the years when friends their mother was their best friend or that they shared everything with their mother, I couldn’t even imagine that type of relationship. I know facts about my mother but in spite of investing significant time with her during the last decade of her life, I never felt like I knewContinue reading “Remembering my mother”

Tomorrow is the beginning of phase 2 of my “rest and recovery” travel adventure. I was holding my breath until I got through the second Covid vaccination without complication. I am now confident that I will be on my way tomorrow around noon with my first night in Durham NC on my way to Lewes,Continue reading “Five days in Nashville – I am fully unleashed!!”
