Hello everyone!July 9, 2025

Leaving in the morning!

July 18, 2025

Ali and I have done many hiking adventures over the years, with each other, with kids, with friends. This will be the longest back packing trip of just the two of us since 1986-87; 9 months through Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand. Great to be heading out with my best friend to explore new places starting tomorrow! This pic on the rim of Mt Bromo on Java in 1986.
