“The sheer joy of the journey, the anticipation of the destination and the pleasure of driving. Beyond all these are memories. Ones that will last forever transcending time.”
― Jagdish Joghee
“The freedom of the open road is seductive, serendipitous and absolutely liberating.”
Aaron Lauritsen.
EAST COAST
After Niagara Falls we were homeward bound to Greensboro, North Carolina. We traveled down the Hudson River to visit friends in New York, West Point, 9/11 site and Statue of Liberty in New York City.

WEST POINT
9/11 TWIN TOWERS
After New York, we finished with a dash through New Jersey and Washington D. C.
WASHINGTON D.C.
GREENSBORO
Sixty-Six days,10,955 miles and 4,098 photos later we turned into our driveway to be greeted by a HUGE Family Created WELCOME HOME sign.
How and why did this journey happen? Both of us finally said…***”So long” to retirement” (YIPPPPPEEE) so, why don’t we “hit the road?”
My perspective came from my knowledge of the history and geography of the areas of our travels.
