Luanne @ Fifty-Eight

Today we get to see the glacier. The captain announced early that we would not be going to Tracy Arm, but through another passage with less ice and therefore we could get closer to the glacier. W...

Today we sailed along the coast. I would have taken more photos, but it was rather foggy. Also, we ate brunch at Palo, which always means a long nap after, so there. Palo was delicious as always,...

Maribeth wanted to eat crepes this morning, so we headed back to the crepes place. Today is also the big eclipse day, and KB had brought eclipse glasses for us all. By the time we had finished ou...

Molly found a crepes place for us to go eat breakfast. While it seemed much closer that it actually was, we all trekked to the place and had a delicious breakfast. We went back to the hotel and d...

By the time I made it to breakfast this morning, the word came out that we were now officially seven hours late! We were supposed to arrive around 9:30, but are now looking more at a 4:30 arriva...

Today is our last full day on the train. Tomorrow we should arrive in Vancouver. After leaving the prairies, today we started seeing more rolling hills. We also started getting more behind in our...

And by that I mean that the people are cool, the scenery is cool, and the towns are cool. In other words, I certainly do like what I am experiencing! Today we started the day by changing to Cent...

Well, let’s start with last night’s sleep. For me, it was lovely. It was very bumpy and loud. At several points I thought perhaps we had run over something just by the bumps and loud sounds. ...

It’s time to get the 60th Adventure started! And it started pretty early today. I got up at 3:30am in order to get a shower and to the airport for my 6:00 flight. Steve has a flight an hour la...

Okay, first of all, I’m leaving town tomorrow for about three weeks. One would think I would be packed by now. But by now, hasn’t one figured out that just is not going to happen?  The p...

Okay, so the time has come and the piper is going to have to be paid. Reality has sunk in and I have to own up to the obvious – I am not going to catch up on all the missing posts in this blog....

Several years ago, I joined Facebook, mainly because one or both of my daughters talked me in to it. I certainly was a casual user at first (whatever that means). Eventually as more of my “old-...

Today most of the fam has returned to Nashville from their trips. Steve and Sam got in just after lunch and Maribeth, Everley, and Emmatha got in just after dinner. Lynnette and Lindley won't be ...

http://luanneatfifty.blogspot.com/2017/08/coming-home.html

Today I knew I was going to have to get serious about getting some stuff done. A few orders I had made to aid these projects had come in, so as lovely as it was to just stare at the boxes, I did ...

This morning KB and I were going to sculpt class, but when I was attempting to rise from my bed, my sinuses decided that they could use a sinus pill and some more sleep. So I texted KB and bailed...

Yesterday when I let Lynnette know that her car was serviced and tested, Maribeth sent word that her car needed a trip to the dealer, too. When I recently took her car in for some fixes, they had...

Before Lynnette boarded the Suburban for the road trip, she asked if I would take her car to get the emissions tested so she could renew her car tag. I said I would be glad to (it's a service I r...

Apparently the travel group made it to Memphis last night and checked into their hotel. Dinner did not go as planned, as the wait staff and kitchen had issues (how hard is it to make plain pasta)...

http://luanneatfifty.blogspot.com/2017/08/news-from-road-trippers.html

Nope, not going on this one. Mainly because I have my extended celebration trip starting next week. And even though it's in a car and not on a plane, this trip just didn't seem to fit into my pla...

http://luanneatfifty.blogspot.com/2017/08/road-trip.html

Tonight Everley and Emmatha spent the night with us. Tomorrow they, along with their mother and Lynnette and Lindley, are going on a road trip west, so Maribeth needed to get things together. T...

Tonight KB, Lynnette, Lindley, Maribeth, Everley, and I went to TPAC to see the musical, The Little Mermaid. VP Pence was speaking downtown, so KB and I went early to pick up Lynnette and Lindle...

Today at the Y, we decided to do something different. The we in question would be Molly, KB, and me. And the thing we decided to do different is to participate in a sculpt class. Technically,...

I cannot believe it's already August. Do you realize how fabu I would look, had I kept my idea (let's not say bad words like "resolution") to lose weight and get in shape from January 1? Sigh -...

http://luanneatfifty.blogspot.com/2017/08/and-now-its-august.html

Is it just me, or does it seem like just about the time you put Monday to bed, you get in bed yourself, and when you wake up, it's Monday again? No? Okay, so it's just me ... Sure, it would b...

http://luanneatfifty.blogspot.com/2017/07/monday-again.html

This morning I was really going to get up and get out and do a training walk. And then I decided not to. I know, nothing is ever going to change if I don't put forth an effort. It's just today I ...
