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.

Golf at St. Andrews


Today is our first golf day...start out in a sprinkle, but the day turns for the better after the first hole. The Fairmont Algonquin course is the perfect resort course. It showcases spectacular scenery, not too tight, challenging, but not overly hard or unfair. The backside plays along the sea and is drop dead gorgeous and a great break from sight seeing.


Had started a barbeques chicken in the oven before we left for the course. Only have to finish it off on the grill when we return. So glad I did it that way...after the mandatory after round gin and tonic, we're tired!
