Why I want to go to this place

Not sure what the calling is but it is there.
Maybe the architecture of Sydney.
Maybe I just want to see a kangaroo in the wild.
Maybe I just want to sit on the beach and experience the waves.
Maybe to take in a new culture, the food, the drinks, the music, ands the arts.
Maybe jus to learn how to throw a boomarang!
Thougth about catching a blues concert in Melborne and have to research the taste ofustralian beers.
Mybe to taste the wine in the wine country.
Maybe I can find time to go fishing.
Maybe to see the natural beauty of the land.
Maybe I just need to go and find out why it calls me.

Amazing Boston

I enjoyed my visit to Boston. Luckily the weather was great and I was able to see many sites. The history, the architecture, the food and the sports were the highlights. The trains made it easy to get around the city and the city seemed do clean and the people friendly. The history of this place is amazing and now some of the things I was taught years ago make more sense. The chowder was great, so to was the Boston Creme pie, boston baked beans, Nathan hotdogs, the pizza, but the “Harpoon” beer was the best.

World Trade Center Site

Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

I felt like I was walking on sacred ground. It felt like there were so many souls who needed my prayers. It was amazing to look around and see how many other people were there with the same look on their face as mine. I could smell smoke, but it couldn’t be from 5 1/2 years ago, could it? Down in the pit at the construction site there was a US flag attached to some wood studs nailed together for a pole. That said so much about the whole thing!

New York City

Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

Amazing place! The people, the movement, the sounds, the food, the art, the architecture, the cherry blossoms, the sirens, the horns, the smell of smoke, the urgency to get somewhere, the subways and trains and cabs, the history, the culture, the Yankees. And in the middle of all of this there are pockets of parks where a person can escape the city, maybe for a moment. New York has it all.

9-11 and Liberty

After visiting the site of the twin towers and taking in all the power of that emotion, it was inspirational to see the Lady Liberty if only from a boat.

How this place changed my life

I am inspired by the architecture of the ancient ones and the way they built with the earth and related everything to the Sun and Moon. On a larger scale the way they oriented this place with other places like Mesa Verde. I was there on a solsctice day when several puelos played their drums and danced. It was powerfull.

The first time I went to this place

My friend lives on his sail boat out there right off peanut island. It is awesome place and so different from where I live. Visit the Tiki Bar and order the rum drink that comes in a bucket.
