Located near the Continental Divide off of Highway 53 - the dirt road leading to the parking lot is about 1/2 a mile (12000 Ice Caves Rd). A small gift shop greets visitors when they exit their vehicles - also a 'gemstone sluice' with running water is located here (inquire about panning prices within the shop) and a small … [Read more...]
Winchcombe Farm in Warwickshire
September had promised to stay fine, and so we headed off again, this time to Warwickshire. I’ve been to Stratford-Upon-Avon before, but other than that I didn’t know this area at all, so a couple of days spent exploring felt like just what we needed. We were staying at Winchcombe Farm, and it became clear pretty soon after arriving that we might not be doing as much exploring as we’d thought. Winchcombe Farm had everything we needed and wanted, … [Read more...]

The Crown & Garter in Berkshire
Deep in the Berkshire countryside, through winding narrow lanes, in a small village named Inkpen, there is a 17th century inn called The Crown and Garter.

But thankfully that’s all behind us and this is now an area of bright bursting flowers pots and English … [Read more...]

Hands-on Ecuadorian Artisans Are Hands-Down Amazing
Photo by Alice Bourget When I was around 10, I tagged along to my brother’s Boy Scout meeting, where one activity was making art projects. Given instruction, I sprayed a clothespin with glittery red paint and spelled my name out on the top bar with glued alphabet macaroni. That might be my highest artistic achievement, so perhaps I don’t have a credible basis to judge the quality of the crafts I’ve seen in Ecuador over the past month. But … [Read more...]
Travelling and living in Melbourne, Australia
Several years ago I spent a year travelling and living in Melbourne, Australia. One of Australia's great cities - it is not to big and not to small either. And I was attracted to the friendly people; it wasn't hard to make new friends at all. My time in the country was quite an adventure - living in a new place with new sights, sounds, and experiences.
