Denise and Rick Cunningham

Like many boomers we're planning the "next chapter". We live a fairly chaotic life in Georgetown in Washington DC. I'm a former fashion executive and journalist. Rick's an engineer and computer scientist. We're about ready for a little change of pace. Travel... perhaps moving to warmer climes ...and definitely savoring more moments. We never set out to buy an RV...matter of fact, we had never even been in one and I definitely don't camp. But, now, with more time and a growing aversion to the insults of air travel, we bought a 40' motor coach. Our grandson, Ian, named it Gigantor. We call it Tor for short.

We're seeing things you just can't from the air and finding that we've so much to discover on this continent. In the past two years, we've taken three marvelous six-week trips. This time, we're "chasing the sun for as long as it fun". We left on October 5, 2009. We'll see how long we last!

We're searching for great places to stay, sights worth seeing, golf courses worth playing, great restaurants, shopping, farmer's markets. We're on the road in search of the high road.

Bar Harbor

Breakfast on the picnic table staring at the water is my idea of heaven. Kind of lollygag away the morning...read a little...take a walk on the beach....then head out to Bar Harbor.

Rick buys a book on sea creatures. We have lunch on the water and do a little grocery shopping. Don't stay in town long...Bar Harbor has gotten pretty tacky. But we really stopped here to see another good friend.

I've known Suzy forever. We first met in Westfield and have played a lot of golf together. She's ended up in Southwest Harbor and is divinely happy there. Haven't seen her in about 5 years. The evening is a delight. Her gracious home is perfectly situated with a picture postcard view of the harbor. There's nothing like picking up where you leftoff with old friends.
