The US Capitol

Can you guess what George Washington and Christopher Columbus, who lived 300 years apart, have in common?

Art for the Soul

We wholeheartedly agree with the Arts Council England study that found visiting art galleries makes you happy.

The 19 museums and galleries of the Smithsonian Institution collectively exhibit 150 million artifacts.

Our first visit to southeastern Virginia became a wonderful lesson in American history.

Spain opened up travel between regions so we dashed out west to visit this town in the Province of Segovia.

No matter which village, town or city we visit in Spain, there is plenty of history to discover.

During a lull in the pandemic we spent a precious month in Porto and may have captured nearly every moment.

Our day began enshrouded in mist but ended with a glorious pink and peach setting sun.

From contemporary art to ancient puppetry, Porto offers an eclectic mix for any lover of art.

Portugal may be half the size of Washington State but the cultural and historical sites are immeasurable.
