Empty Nest Wanderings

Freedom to wander in body and mind

The Keys, if you please

We started our second year of nomading adventures relatively close to home. Well, at least in the same state. There’s been a cold snap across the entire country, and Florida has not been immune. So we went south. As south as you can go while still staying in the US. We went to the Keys… Read More The Keys, if you please

The Holidays in Review

It has been a very busy month and I am going to upload a lot of photos to capture some of the incredible memories with the family. It was a whirlwind of a December. Shortly after I arrived, mom and I started the holiday season by decorating our homes and attending an excellent one-man performance… Read More The Holidays in Review

Late Post: Last two weeks in NYC

We squeezed a lot of living into our last two weeks in NYC. We had some incredible sights, sounds, food, drink, and experiences. We traveled several neighborhoods and sought out some of the remaining bucket list items of Peak Experiences. This final NYC post will probably have more detail than normal, but it feels right… Read More Late Post: Last two weeks in NYC

Whirlwind of company

We had back-to-back company the past two weekends, and it makes our hearts glad to be able to have our friends come join us in NYC. First the Townes came in for a quick visit. We squeezed in a lot of good living in the two nights they were here. We had drinks and dinner… Read More Whirlwind of company

Half way through NYC

It’s crazy to feel that we are already half way through this trip. We’ve already done so much, seen so much, consumed so much. But we also have a whole lot to look forward to between now and when we head south (first to Philly; then to Florida). We have some of our favorite people… Read More Half way through NYC

New York as a state of in between

We are already a third of the way through our visit to New York. Last week was wonderful. Gorgeous weather, daily walks through Central Park, explorations of new neighborhoods, regular visits to the gym. City-wide celebrations of Halloween, Diwali, and the NYC Marathon. This week we’ve felt some added pressures and stresses, both work related… Read More New York as a state of in between

Japan, at last

We almost didn’t make this trip. Again. This was the third time we were attempting this trip. It was supposed to be for our 25th wedding anniversary, but covid had us cancel it the first time. Then, once things started opening up again, we tried to rebook it, but Japan was maintaining strict covid measures… Read More Japan, at last

New England streams of consciousness

Our time here in New Hampshire is drawing to a close this week. It’s time to say goodbye to our northern home, where we lived, worked, played, and worked out all summer and into the fall. For over four months, I drove most days to Sanford, Maine, to use the closest YMCA with a pool.… Read More New England streams of consciousness

Northern empty nests

Things sure are quiet here at camp. My folks have headed back to Florida, Meredith has headed back to Northern Ireland, and Elliot is back in the Netherlands. Most of the folks on the camp road are gone for the season. The weather has been particularly gorgeous and we have relished the natural beauty and… Read More Northern empty nests

All together again

We spent the past two weeks with the family together again. Elliot arrived for a summer vacation and we felt whole. We enjoyed lots of quality time in the most beautiful corner of the world. We got to celebrate Doodles’ birthday by seeing Tom Rush in concert. We got to celebrate Larry’s birthday with a… Read More All together again
