Wedged somewhere in between the craziness of this current cancer boondoggle and last summer’s east coast of the US and Canadain Maritimes roadtrip, Jeff and I visited the somewhat removed, ruggedly beautiful wilderness of New Hampshire’s White Mountains. If you haven’t already gathered, or if you’ve just started reading Call … Continue reading
You know how first impressions can make or break a destination? Moncton could easily have been one of those rare fails, were it not that a mere three blocks from our shitty little airbnb were historic, well maintained buildings, cute pubs and some manicured parks for Chance to explore.

Welcome back and thanks for checking in. If you haven’t already, please check out Part One of our Sea of Cortez adventures. As I was saying, there were things we loved about the Sea, and some things, well…not so much. The loving part was easy. The wildlife was so diverse, … Continue reading
After spending three nights in Todos Santos, it is time to head north, back towards our home port of Ensenada. But not before exploring more of the peninsula, and the beauty that is the Sea of Cortez. We bypassed Loreto on the southbound leg of our trip, so I … Continue reading
