Greetings! I hope you enjoy the following picture albums. I use a lot of external links within the albums both to enhance the message and to save reproducing explanations. Unfortunately sometimes those external sites change their addresses, which results in broken links. My apologies if you encounter such.
During all our working years together we didn't travel except to visit family or to ski. Or for work. (There was a time when it seemed like we only saw each other in airport bars!) So Jim said that his great desire upon retirement was to travel to see places he always wanted to visit. That we have done! Of course we still visit family, and although Jim doesn't ski anymore, we still head for the mountains in the winter.
The older pictures, before our marriage, are trips I took on my own.
