Welcome to my travel blog!




For years travel has been a big part of my life. Dad was in the Air Force so we moved around a lot, spent four years in Germany, I've been a Boy Scout all my life and I've grown to enjoy traveling.

Probably because of that I've had this idea of a travel something in my mind for some time. Judy, my wife, and I have two very good and dear friends, Kenneth (KP) and Carolene Poole. We spend a lot of time together, travel, Wednesday night hamburger nights, movies and have talked about putting together a diary of places we like to eat.

As a result of modern technology, the knowledge of my good friend/fellow photographer Steve Douglas, this travel blog has become a reality. He did a blog for me for a tour with the Kwahadi Dancers to Europe this summer.

Now it's time for a travel blog.

Come along with me as I travel from here to where ever. We'll share places to see, things to do, places to eat, people we
meet along the way and just have fun.

Have you ever been to a rodeo (either a pro or ranch rodeo), Pow Wow, motorcycle rally, ran the rapids of a river, visited old churches, looked through old windows wondering what they could tell you, traveled Route 66 (there was a TV show about it many, many years ago), gone to air shows, or many other wonderful things I get to do and love to do?

Come along and let's see what we can see.

You might even have some suggestions and you can let me know about them. Doesn't mean we'll get to go or do them right away, but we'll put them on our "Bucket List."

Sometimes we'll travel by a Harley-Davidson, a Ford Harley-Davidson pickup, a Chevrolet pickup, plane, train (hopefully), horseback (if possible), hikiing us to be one of my favorite means of travel-but those hikes and other things have given my feet reasons to ride instead plus other means of transportation.

We'll look for the best places to eat. I love to eat so I list it as one of my main objectives in life. Maybe find a golf course or two. I just took up the game and am enjoying the challenge of learning it.

No telling where we'll stay. However camping and I parted company about twenty years ago. The mind still thinks it can and wants to but the body over rules most of the time. We'll stay with friends and relatives when ever possible to save money and eat their food.

Some of our travels will be with the Kwahadi Dancers of Amarillo, Texas.

We'll post photos as we travel and you can make the trips with us.

John - Judy Madden, Kenneth - Carolene Poole.
