The Vacation Continues


The Morgan has had a day at the mechanics and is now running beautifully. Maybe it will now go another few thousand miles and get us home.

The big picture opportunity of the day was offered by the kite-surfers spotted south of San Francisco in the Pacific.

The Vacation Continues

Rockinon rocked down Highway 1 today from San Simeon to Santa Cruz. Big Sur was amazing. It was a great Morgan run. For more, see my Digital Journal post.

The Vacation Continues

Stayed at the Hacienda. A ranch home designed for William Randolph Hearst by the same architect that worked with him for decades on his castle-like home near San Simeon.

Drove from the one former Hearst property to the other via a mountain road across the Fort Hunter-Liggett military base. What a road!

Today's picture is a view from this road.

The vacation continues . . . Rockinon rocks on!


I'd heard of dust devils but until today I had not encountered them. There were literally dozens of dust devils to be seen out on the Nevada desert Thursday. Driving through that in an old Morgan was quite the buzz.

I posted some of the events of the day at: http://www.digitaljournal.com/blog/7272

Rockinon is on Vacation!


It may be almost summer in London, Ontario, but in the Grand Tetons above Jackson Hole the snow is still six-feet deep beside some of the mountain top walkways. Blogging on trip on Digital Journal.

On Vacation_Rockinon visits Yellowstone and more

One of the geyser basins in Yellowstone National Park.
By now you know Rockinon is on vacation. The Morgan has put Yellowstone National Park behind it and is on its way to Providence, Utah. What's in Providence? A wonderful B&B, I hope. But this is just a stop before the next major place to visit: Yosemite!

I'll be back covering London, Ontario, come some time in July.

For more info on the trip see the Digital Journal.


Cheers!

Why blog on hiatus

I'm on vacation! For more information see my Rockin' On: the blog post.

Thousands hike to the top of Crazy Horse Memorial. Yes, those are people.
And I was one of the thousands making the climb.

Yes, this is B&B fare!
This is the Badlands of South Dakota.
And when my wife and I are not enjoying the fabulous scenery, we are enjoying the fabulous breakfasts at the various B&Bs at which we have stayed.

Cheers! (Remember: if you want to know more, follow the links.)
