Outtakes and Musings from El Salvadorian Adventure

Its hard to believe I was looking out at the Pacific Ocean while relaxing in a hammock just a few short days ago. I made it home to North Carolina feeling a little more rested and rejuvenated, although I must admit, I was not ready to come back. A week isn’t enough time to truly [...]

Feliz Navidad! Wishing Everyone a Very Merry Christmas!

This is my last full day here in El Salvador. The weather has been amazing. Warm sunny days and cool nights. My son Adam made sure my visit was both restful with some fun and a few adventures tossed in. We went to mass last night at a church in the village near his home. [...]

Motorcycle Madness…..

Since scaling a steep cliff down to a majestic waterfall wasn’t enough adventure for this old guy, Adam and I went on Motor Cross “off road” excursion through the mountains of El Salvador. We had very little experience riding off road motorcycles so we spend the morning practicing our skills on a training course where [...]

Too Old for Mountain Climbing? Not!

There’s never a lack of adventures here on the coast of El Salvador. I started the morning of my second day in El Salvador taking a Yoga Class. Yes…that’s right. I took a Yoga class and I’m glad I did because that same afternoon Adam and his friends invited me on a hike in the [...]

Travels Trials, Tribulations and Joys

Sunset in El Tunco I finally made it to my son Adam’s home located near a little surf resort 30 minutes from San Salvador called El Tunco, which means pig in Spanish. They named the town after a pig because there is a giant rock coming out of the water in front of the town [...]

Off to El Salvador!

This has been a grueling semester with so much going on between teaching, distance learning demands, Vasa projects and a few personal challenges thrown in the mix. I just submitted the last of my grades for one of my freelance colleges and am heading home to finish packing for my trip to visit my son [...]

El Salvador is an absolutely beautiful (benito) country. The people are so gracious and friendly and the landscape and people are great subject matter to explore with my camera.

El Salvadorian Adventure…Random Thoughts and Photos

I’m staying on the coast of El Salvador at a rustic hostile that looks out over the ocean. My son Adam and I had a great reunion yesterday after I landed in San Salvador. I had not seen Adam since Christmas. I can’t get over what a great location he has to live and the [...]

Heading to El Salvador

I had a great time mixing business with pleasure in Denver last week. I was a co-presenter with my colleague Don Staub at the Noel-Leviz conference. One of the highlights of the Denver trip was breaking away from the conference and spending an afternoon at the Denver Museum of art where they had a fantastic [...]
