August 10, 2026 - It has been a WONDERFUL SUMMER here in Manchester-by-the-Sea, but it is time to "hit the road". I want to visit the
Upper Penninsula, then
Fish Creek, Wisconsin, and then a Northern Route to get down into Idaho for a 3-day-2-night overnight-camping in
Idaho's White Cloud Mountains. Then north for a couple of dayhikes in
Glacier National Park. Wendy will join me in
Calgary, and we will visit
Lake O'Hara and
Maligne Lake. After a couple of days in
Glacier National Park, Wendy flys home from
Bozeman, Montana, and I'll make my way back Home through the Heartland of America:
The Art Museums are few-and-far-between - almost all of them no longer display "the art I like" (Bierstadt, Cole, Church). I'm glad I saw a lot of them when I did.
There is currently 65,000 miles on my white 2023 Crosstrek (decals courtsey of Wendy!)
I will be getting home Wednesday, September 16th. 35 days, Close to 11,000 miles (I wonder How Many Albums? How Many Post Offices?)
Should be fun - come along for the ride! Maybe I'll see you Out On The Road - as Paul Simon wrote:
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
