Fern with his Grandchildren Marin (9) Ryan (11) Lemay and Stephen Labins (1)

Seven week countdown!!

We have had fun planning our great Western U.S. adventure.  We have spent hours planning our route from Cape Cod to the Midwest and on to the real west with visits to Glacier National Park, Yellowstone, and many more.  We will be driving thousands of miles in our Camry staying in motels, B & B's, inns, and cabins. We think we will have internet service some of the time and will stay in touch with friends and family via this blog and e-mail.

This is the first summer in 40 years that I have not been working so I have lots of time to plan this trip, and have visits from all the grandchildren.  There will be lots of cooking, beaching, and fun.  I am loving retirement and all the windows it opens.
