Trekking in Europe: ‘Get Out There!’

England’s South West Coast Path presents an idyllic walk-in-the-park look in these photographs from our trek, but don’t be fooled. As we approached Land’s End a couple hundred miles later, Sue and I fought gale-force winds and horizontal rain. Read about this adventure and our challenges on three other European distance treks in Trippin’ Through My 60s: When Adventure Calls, the Trails of Europe Answer. One reader commented: “If you are interested in getting out there, train, research, read Reg’s books, then get out there!”

Water and Vows Celebrated in California

Plumas County in northeastern California hosts treasures for outdoor adventurers. One of the most spectacular, and easily accessible, is Frazier Falls.
When you visit, check out nearby Plumas State Park for camping and for its indoor/outdoor gold-mining museum.

Sue and I discovered the area when we celebrated the wedding of our son, Brad, and our new daughter-in-law, Ashley. Rounding out our family photo are Brad’s twin Chris and his fiancée Gail as well as their older brother Andrew and his wife Leah. A great weekend, indeed!
