Two years of travels in one post....and a teaser

I guess we flunk in keeping up to date. So, here is the short version of what we have been up to. Because I really want to share our latest adventure with you.

We have traveled to a few road races in the last two years, including races in Maine, Virginia, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Quebec. We will leave those out of the blog details but mention them here to let you know that the Wanderlust is still alive and well. Circumstances just haven't worked out to allow for those big "all-summer" trips.

In 2013 we traveled to Virginia with our buddies Gary and Nonnie to tour some wineries, camp, and visit their family during our April school vacation. We ate great food, met a few shady characters in campgrounds, and learned a lot about wines. We also did several camping trips in Maine and New Hampshire during the summer of 2013 with the Gonyars, the Erbs, and the Carters.

In 2014 we took Gary and Nonnie for a whirlwind tour of Utah during our April school break. We visited Moab, Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, Zion National Park, and Bryce Canyon National Park. We climbed Angel's Landing as well as several other fun hikes that week. Our summer has once again been filled with camping trips and we even were able to have the Gonyars meet the Carters at the Burlington Marathon.

Now for the main reason for the post. I want to tell you about our trip to Canada this past week with my parents. It was an adventure for a few reasons.  I will work on that post in the next few days. I need to get the photos uploaded and find just the right words. For now, I will leave you with a teaser....."The Holyokes and Breaus meet 7 Canadian customs agents and a trained dog"
Details soon,
Terry
