These are photos from 2011. They include scenes of wild life from the area along with some photos taken of fresh snow falls. On a trip to Kansas, we purchased a new puppy from Jane Laman. It was fun breaking in a new dog and introducing him to the older dogs. The big trip of the year, however, was a motorcycle ride to Alaska to attend a Joint Techs meeting at the University in Fairbanks. It took 26 days and I kept a diary which is included in the photo collections of the trip. It was a great ride, the experience of a life time. Carolyn and I also rode to Niagara Falls for a week, riding north of lake Eriethrough Canada on the way out, and then back through the US, stopping in Cleveland for a weekend.

These are the 2014 photos. The only travel for the year was an incredible trip to Scotland. We flew into Manchester, England, stayed the first night in Wigan just north of Manchester, and then took in a day at the Open Championship at Hoylake west of Liverpool. We then drove north to Ayr, Scotland, stayed for a night, and then went on to Inverness. The Scotish Highlands are beautiful. It was a disappointment to not see the Loch Ness Monster, however! Driving back to Stirling for two days, we spent a day at the Old Course at St Andrewsi and visited several distiilleries, followed by the drive back to Manchester for the flight home.
