I have taken a number of trips unrelated to the Civil War, usually with my wife Nancy (unless it's about any type of warfare). My practice of writing travelogues started with some cruises in the late 1990s, but has expanded over the years to include just about all of our significant trips, including many with the Road Scholar organization. This page is a compilation of all of the Road Scholar trips. The title of the trips below are the links to the travelogue pages. The photos are also links to those pages. To see the full list of all my non-Civil War travel, click the Travel menu item at the top of this page.
