Gearing up for a road trip

I’m taking my first post-retirement road trip with my friend Linda in June. It’s a trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton parks, places I haven’t been since I was a young child, 50 years ago. I’m looking forward to seeing the geologic sights, encountering wildlife, getting my binoculars on lots of interesting birds, and relaxing in beautiful places.

We’ll be putting some miles on my Prius, so I made sure the tires and other essentials were road-worthy today. Linda and I have other preparations to make in these last few days before departing, including choosing the food to bring, clothes to pack, and places we want to stop along the way. Looking forward to a great trip!
