  • Wild and Wonderful

    8/22/2010
    Last evening, our sabbatical summer officially came to a close--and in such a spectacular way!!  The "docking" party at Percy Priest Lake beautifully wrapped up what began with the "launching" party in May.

  • Off the Boat

    8/10/2010
    Well, we are now seasoned (if novice) sailor-folk!  And there's a whole new slate of marvels and wonders that we have experienced in the summer's second international foray.

  • View from the Mountain

    8/1/2010
    That would be Stone Mountain, GA.  Because we were informed that, though I'm extremely sure that they were born at University Hospital in Augusta, if they haven't climbed Stone Mountain, they can't actually say that they're Georgia kids.

  • Shifting Gears

    7/25/2010

    After a marvelous 12 days at Ring Lake Ranch, we hugged our Wyoming friends goodbye and loaded up the Shangrilette.  When we stepped out of the rv in mid-Nebraska, every single one of us literally gasped. More...

  • A Fish Story

    7/21/2010

    One of our very early ideas for this western excursion was to spend a day with a guide learning to fly-fish on one of these gorgeous Wyoming or Montana rivers.  Having gotten a whole lot of hypothetical information by telephone more than a year ago, we wrote the cost of time and dollars into the grant proposal--so basically it was a done deal. More...

  • The Sun Dance

    7/18/2010

    Our four sessions last week with author Margaret Coel were fascinating, informative, and fun.  "Auntie Margaret," as the children now call her, has written a series of murder mysteries that take place on the Wind River Reservation, which borders Ring Lake Ranch. More...

  • Amazeable!

    7/16/2010

    The children are so captivated by the horses and hikes at Ring Lake Ranch that a few major-league wonders have not made the "log" yet.  I simply MUST tell you quickly about one of our last days in Yellowstone National Park. More...

  • Emmie's Trail Course

    7/16/2010

    Oh, what a lovely morning it was--clear skies, and warm sun, and fresh breeze.  And the staff and almost all of this week's seminar participants--probably 45 or 50 people--gathered after breakfast at the corral to dedicate Emmie's Trail Course. More...

  • Lara Checks In

    7/14/2010

    I can tell you one thing; seeing wolves almost take down a buffalo is the coolest  thing ever! One wolf was sent out by the pack and was looking for something to hunt. More...

  • Danny's Report

    7/13/2010

    Hey, Guys!  We are having a terrific time. More...

  • We're BAAACK!

    7/12/2010

     

    Hi Everybody!  After what seems like weeks out of touch, we have arrived at Ring Lake Ranch and found our way to electronic reconnection. More...

  • Canned Hams

    7/1/2010

    Back in the day, when David Letterman was a weatherman, he once made the effusive statement that the hail was falling like canned hams.  We didn't actually see "Hormel" on the labels, but the chunks of ice were awfully big. More...

  • Amy's Story

    6/26/2010

    We are taking a brief respite from the wilderness--hence the Travel Log updates.  After a week in the eastern and northern sections of Glacier, we are in West Glacier and splurging at a commercial campground for a couple of nights. More...

  • David's Story

    6/25/2010

    We camped in Many Glacier at the base of a mountain with a giant, snowy "E" shining down on us.  It was a comforting symbol to have for those six nights. More...

  • Mia's Story

    6/25/2010

    Well, there's a lot going on.  We've seen a grizzly bear--it crossed the road (Going-to-the-Sun Road that crosses Glacier Park) right in front of our car! More...

  • Danny's Story

    6/25/2010

    Hello, Friends and Family!  We are having a terrific time in Glacier National Park. More...

  • Lara's story

    6/25/2010

    It's been a long time since we posted Travel Logs, but we were in remote places where there was no phone or internet signal.  Here's what we've been up to: More...

  • Top 3 Lists

    6/18/2010

    Tonight we'll reach our first "pausing point," in Glacier National Park.  Here are our "Top 3 Lists" from the first leg of our journey. More...

  • Sioux City Summary

    6/16/2010

    Lara:  I slept pretty much all day yesterday as we drove along.  We left at 11pm on Monday night and drove all the way to South Dakota! More...

  • Bewildered

    6/10/2010

    Ah.  So here is one of the reasons that our community of faith provides sabbatical leaves, that "sanctuary in time" of which Merton speaks. More...
