We have traveled as far north as Alaska and the Yukon Territory, and south to Florida. We made two trips to Niagara Falls,Canada. The summer of 2006 some of us headed west and visited sites in Michigan, Chicago, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Indiana. Two of us flew across the Atlantic Ocean to London, Paris and Rome. The summer of 2007, our biggest undertaking was Australia. Eighteen days and nights traveling the east coast visiting cities, the outback, staying on tropical islands, snorkeling the great barrier reef, and so much more!!

What a Wonderful trip!!! We went on a 7-day Alaskan Cruise.
We flew to Seattle and boarded the Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship "Rhapsody Of The Seas". What a beautiful ship. It has 2 swimming pools, an arcade, fitness center, shopping center, rock climbing wall, dance hall,art gallery,a Broadway Theater, and so much more!
Our first stop was the Capital City of Juneau. Here we rode a sky tram to the top of Mt. Roberts. At the top was a great views of the city, our cruise ship, a Nature Center,Chilkat Theater,and a live eagle.
After, we took a city tour and went onto Mendenhall Glacier Rainforest and Gardens. Yes, there is a rainforest in Alaska. What a beautiful site. They made planters out of upside down tree trunks. The temperature in July in Alaska is usually 65-70 degrees but we lucked out the temp. never went below 80 degrees. The people there were complaining on how hot it was and they couldn't take the heat. It was quite amusing.
Next we headed to Mendenhall Glacier part of the Tongass National Forest, 17 million acres. Floating down the river were icebergs and swimming in the river were salmons. The Mendenhall Glacier was awesome.
Later on, we walked around downtown Juneau. You have to check out the pictures in our MySpace. They have streets that are the size of a walkway. They even have a Saloon like the ones you see in an old western movie. The Saloon had dirt floors. One of our favorite shopping spots was the Alaskan T-Shirt Company and they sell more than t-shirts. You won't find better prices anywhere. And "Del Sol" store with the color changing rings(more later about them or ask Stephanie).
Skagway takes it all. The entire town looks like a western movie set. Skagway was first founded during the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush and doesn't seem to have changed much since that time. What a quite place. There is one school, one food store, and no doctor. We visited the Klondike Gold Rush National Historic Park in town and the Red Onion Saloon. The Saloon was equipped with a piano player and singing girls.
While docked in Skagway, we headed out through British Columbia(Canada) to the Yukon Territory of Canada. Where we were fortunate enough to see a mother bear right on the side of the road while her 3 cubs climbed up a tree. What a beautiful day to cross the Yukon Suspension Bridge. On our journey we crossed the White Pass Summit, Pitchfork Falls, William Moore Bridge & Overlook, Dead Horse Gulch (where the stampeder's lost 3,000 horses while trying to cross the passage). Once we were back in the States we went gold panning at the Klondike Gold Field. Chelsea got to participate in the demonstration and we all got to go panning. Now we are one step closer to financial independences.
Our next adventure on the ship was sailing through the Inner Passage, Tracy Arm Fjord, to Sawyer Glacier. Susan had everyone up and out by 5:00am(the sun was shining bright)so we wouldn't miss anything. This is where we saw the most wildlife like bald eagles, sea otters, and lots of seals. We sailed through fields of icebergs to get close to the glacier. At 5:00 am surrounded by icebergs and snow covered mountains it was a bite chilly.
Our next stop of Victoria, British Columbia (Canada). What a beautiful city. They love their flowers in Victoria. First we took a bus tour of the city and the surrounding areas. What was really cool was when we went through the university campus, rabbits were everywhere. They were running free. The student on the campus like to have rabbits as pets and when they graduate they set the rabbits free on the grounds.
One of our stops was at the Craigdarroch Castle built by the Dunsmuir Family, in 1890's. The Castle had 4 floors including a game room, a indoor swimming pool, servants quarters, a library, and much more. We got high-fives and met Bella. Walked out on a jetty to a light hosue and on the way watched seals playing and seen seastars, purple ones and orange ones the size of a small cat.
Our tour of Seattle took us to see the very first Starbucks and the Space Needle. From the top you can see the entire city and Mt. Rainer covered with snow. We walked the fish market where they throw fish around.
The cruise ship was awesome! Our dinners were in the dining room where we were treated like princess. We had a view of the open sea where we watch a humpback whale jump out of the water. For dinner we ate prime rib, shrimp, lobster, calamari, and did I say it was unlimited. We are not use to this kind of food on trips. In the theater we seen the "Platters", A Country Show, singing, dancing,and great entertainment. Every afternoon we learned to ballroom dance. After dinner we some how always ended up in the Schooner Lounge for Karaoke Night. Also called Adult Day Care. We couldn't keep Mary and Chelsea away from the microphone. We had the best time. After singing we were pronounced "SUPERSTARS" and received a Del Sol color changing ring valued at far less than $1,000 and the memories are priceless. Even Susan, Pat, and Stephanie finally got up and sang. They couldn't resist the ring. We all got an Adult Day Care t-shirt. We made lots of friends and had the best of times. Please check out our My Space account to see all of the pictures.
Ellicott City was first founded in 1722. What a cool town. Building were built right over the river. We had homemade candy for breakfast. We toured the B&O Railroad Museum and Thomas Issac log cabin.
Next, we headed to Patapsco State Park. Well we didn't get there right away. The park is divided up and bits of it seemed to be all over the place. But we did find it and the swing bridge was fun. As we were hiking we got to see a freight train pass us by and only a few yards away. We hiked up the side of another mountain to the top of a waterfall. It was so cool.
For dinner we went to Baltimore Inner Harbor.
So, this spot on the website will be dedicated to all of your hard work.

Along with a Book Drive and followed with a Book Fair for the Children. Katies created a pamphlet for the parents and a reading list for the children.

Great Job!!!
They were the ONLY 2 in the school district to earn their Gold Award.
Last weekend the graduated girls/ life members went tent camping down at Belleplian State Park. The weather was great, plenty of sunshine and warmth. We arrived late saturday afternoon and immediately set up our tent. Everyone pitched in to make Sheppard's Pie for dinner.
After dinner we headed into Cape May for a little walking and of course a little shopping. Once back at camp Chelsea built a camp fire while the rest of us prepared to make s'mores. It was great sitting around a campfire once again.
The next day our plan was to eat breakfast and go on a hike around Lake Nummy, than head home. Well palns and us do not go well together. We left camp at 2pm and got home at 7 pm and the ride is only around 1hour and 15 minutes. Well, where do we start. Not mentioning any name we need to make a stop and while waiting someone else got the desire for ice cream. So, we drove around looking and stop in at a Friendly's which was near Margate. Well, Margate has a huge six story elephant right near the beach. What else could we do but try to find the elephant. Do you know that "Lucy" that is the elephant's name was built in 1881. We got to watch the sunset from back of Lucy. What a beautiful view and a great weekend.
We had a great time visiting the Kentucky Horse Park -"The World Largest Horse Park"- in Lexington. There isn't a place in the world with so many different breeds of horse and so many famous horse who have spent time on this farm. To name a few- Man O' War, Secretariat, Cigar.
To start off with it is true about Southern Hospitality. When we first arrived there was a problem with our van. Two men who work on the farm came to our aide. We followed them back to the garage where they spent about 20 min. to 1/2 hr. working on the van, cleaning, fixing, replacing and when we asked how much they only want $5.00. Kindness still exist.
Back to the horses. We have full freedom of the farm. We went to the Hall of Champions, the Parade of Breeds, the International Horse Museum, the Saddlebred Museum, the Draft Horse Barn, the Carriage Barn, trolley ride, Secretariat's Center where we got to brush and clean a horse and meet a really life winning jockey, who happen to be a Woman. Of course we went horseback riding. You can't go to a horse farm without going riding. Some learned that it is best to wear pants when getting on the back of such a large animal.
After dinner we drove into the City of Lexington, the home of the University of Kentucky and Transylvania University. Yes, there is a university name after the homeland of Count Dracula. Everywhere in the city was window boxes with flowers. The streets where lined with flowerpots. What was really cool was a park with a waterfall that was probably one block in length and stood about 7-8 feet high with water shooting out of the top. They also had a festival going on in front of city hall with ballet dancers on stage. It turned out to be a Latino Festival with food, clothing, art, flags, and so much more. In front of city hall there is another water work of art. Geysers shooting out of the ground for the children to play in. We ended the evening at Starbucks to relax in large fluffy purple chairs.
What a trip- the weather was beautiful and it didn't get dark until after 8:30pm (because we were so far west). Driving through the West Virginia mountains with the leaves changing and the late morning fog was breathe taking. This is a must do trip.
What a trip!!! Our troop went on a South West USA Road Trip. We flew into LAX and travel to Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona.
Our first stop was to the Beach. We walked along Venice Beach all the way to Santa Monica. On the way back we walked along the famous walkway. There were artist, performers, people who don't know that it is no longer 1968.
We camped at Malibu Creek State Park in the Santa Monica Mountains.
We went on a tourist bus tour of Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, the Hollywood Sign, Homes of the Stars, Walk of Fame, Chinese Theatre, the Kodak Theater, Rodeo Drive where we received a look and a wink from "Bruce Willis". He was wearing blue jeans, a white shirt, and cowboy boots.
We also went on a tour of Paramount Studios. The only studio still in Hollywood. It was GREAT!! We got to see the filming of a movie with the Jonas Brothers, ET Tonight- Mark invited us in to watch the taping, said hello to "Monk" and was invited into the filming of "Everyone Hates Chris". The entire cast was so nice the father in the show(he was also in "Get Smart" this summer), Terrance, shook our hands and talked for awhile. We also got to talk to Debbie Allen and their producer Jerry Devine. He is from New Brunswick and his mom has a home on the Long Beach Island. He really seemed to enjoy his conversation with us about NJ that his cast had to bring him back to filming the show. Just to give everyone the heads up the "Dr. Phil Show" is getting a new stage set and his son will be having his own show. What a great day for everyone.
Next we headed to Las Vegas, Nevada driving through the Mojave Desert. We went there to take a tour bus to see the Hoover Dam, the Joshua Tree Forest, and the West Rim of the Grand Canyon on the Hualapai Nation. We took a stroll on the newly constructed Skywalk. What a view!!! it is all glass. After our tour we spent the evening in Las Vegas. We ate at a very fancy Italian Restaurant.
The following morning We headed north once again this time into Utah. We went on a 4 wheel drive ride through Zion National Park, a ghost town and the surrounding areas. You have to check out the photos of Zion what a site to see. After we also drove through the Park we went out on the east side and spent the night in a TiPi. Watched and listen to Indian story telling, songs, and dance. We sat around a campfire listening to stories with tourist from France and the Czech Republic. So many people from Europe come to the USA to visit our National Parks. We went out to eat and drove about 1/2 hour before we came to a restaurant. The restaurant served buffalo meat so we ate it. By the way, while driving to eat we stopped to see a herd of living buffalo.
After leaving Utah we headed into Arizona to see Monument Valley in the Navajo Nation. After seeing it in person we can see why they use these formations in so many commercials. Our next stop was the Four Corners which is also in the Navajo Nation. It was pretty cool to be standing (or doing a back bend) in 4 States at one time. The 4 States are Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. While there we ate Navajo Tacos for dinner, Made by Navajo Indians not Taco Bell.
As we left and headed toward the mountains of Colorado we could see rainstorms ahead. When I say rainstorms- you can actually see the rain falling miles away. And as we headed into the mountains we weren't sure if we where riding through the storm or the rain producing cloud. What an awesome feeling.
We stayed in Mancos, Colorado where they have actual trees. We haven't see real trees in awhile. The 2 nights we where there we went to 2 movies in Cortez- " The Dark Knight" & "Hancock". During the day, after eating at a tea cafe we headed off to Hoovensweep National Park. What a ride. We asked a local how far it was and he said it was only 20 minutes. Well add about 50 minutes to that. But we did get to see wild horses, wild turkeys, and oil drill on the way. Hoovensweep has ruins dating back to the 11th century built along the cliffs.
That afternoon we headed to Mesa Verde National Park, which is located across the highway from where we were staying. Who would have guessed it would be such a long ride. That same day, after entering the gates the visitors center was just another 30 miles and the first cliff houses were another 10 miles. And the ride was straight up along side of the mountain. The ride was well worth it so we did it again the next day. This time we had the opportunity to climb into the cliff houses by climbing a wooden ladder straight up. It was so worth the sweaty palms.
I think one of the most memorable events was the Old Western Stage Coach Ride through Weber Canyon. We even got to ride on top. The sites were beautiful and we even got robbed by bandits. The stage coach than took us to a western ranch for good olde fashion fun and entertainment. Western music, roping, a campfire, home cooked meal with steak and dancing. What a night to remember.
The next morning we left Colorado and head to New Mexico. While driving we got to see "dirt devils" or otherwise known as dirt funnels. We stopped in Gallup and then headed for the Continental Divide.
Once again we headed back to Arizona and to the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert National Parks. What a beautiful site. We got to see tumble weed. At the south entrance there was so much petrified wood. The colors in the Painted Desert looked like candy corn but with shades of pink.
So back on the road again- this time heading to Flagstaff. Flagstaff is like an oasis in the middle of the desert. First, it is way up in the mountains with real trees and comfortable temp. at night. We got very lucky this night- we stayed at "Hotel Bond". Susan's cousin's lives in Flagstaff and just before we left for our trip they found out that we were heading their way and offered us their home. It was great staying in a real home, with normal food, and lounging on the porch and talking in the livingroom. Our rooms were already for us with towels and an Arizona t-shirt at the foot of the bed. They feed us all our meals and sent us on the road with more. Gene took us to Sunset Crater National Park and Watpaki National Park. Sunset Crater was a volcano that erupted many centuries ago and there is lava all down the mountainside. But the best was the climb to the top. Gene was like lighting and we were like- maybe I wouldn't go there. It was fun anyway. When we reached the top and lookout the next mountain had snow on top. Watpaki was an old Indian village in the desert. The desert was deep red.
Next Gene gave us a tour of the city. The Phoenix Cardinal were starting their first day of training camp at the University.
As we worked our way out of Flagstaff and down the mountain with the rain in the distances we were back in the desert, along with the heat.
You want to talk about heat then go visit Needles, CA. It is in the Mojave Desert. What a place. Temperatures can go up to 120 degrees. At 11:00 pm we went swimming and I don't think the temp. got below 100 degrees. We went to a Mexican Restaurant- what an interesting story. A man walked in and asked why the air wasn't on and the man behind the counter said it was on "you should see what it's like when it ain't working".
In Flagstaff gas was $3.99/gal. and in Needles gas was $5.29/gal. It is good to see how the rest of the country lives.
Our last day of our trip we spent lounging at the beach in Santa Monica. What a beautiful day. The skies were blue and the water was warm. What a way to end a GREAT Trip.
Where should we go next year?
We headed into the mountains to explore old Appalachian homes and communities. We walked between the raindrops. After we headed up to the top of the mountains. Where we stood on the borders of Tennessee and North Carolina and walked along the Appalachian Trail.
We headed down the other side and into The Cherokee Indian Reservation where the sun shined bright. We visited the Cherokee Indian Museum and learn the history of these proud people.
Well, back over the mountains and into Gatlinburg. We spend late afternoon walking around town. I have never been in so many pocketbook shops in my life. What a cute town and so much shopping.
After we ate our Brazilian Enchiladas(leftovers from International Day) we headed into Pigeon Forge, home of Dolly Parton. Pigeon Forge looks a little like Vegas with all the lights.We went to a show- "Country Tonite". This show was so much fun. Lots of country and comedy. After the show we got to meet the cast.
The next morning Mary decided we needed to go find some Elk. What an adventure that was. Around the mountains, through 3 National Parks, around windy dirt roads up VERY narrow roads. But after at least an hour we did find a herd of Elk, Yeah!!!
Now, what do we do, do you think it is time to head home? It probably should have been but we saw a sign that read"Biltmore- America's largest home". Well, we had no choice, it call to us. The Biltmore, Vanderbilt's home was absolutely beautiful. On it's property and in the home was a winery, a conservatory, tulip garden, English Garden, duck pond, a bowling alley, indoor swimming pool, a gym, etc. There were 22 rooms just for the help, the women, the men were on another floor. This is a must seen home
We got to visit so many great sites: Our first stop after scouting around for free parking was the National Parks Dept. Visitors Center. There we watched a movie on the history of Salem.
October is a great time to go it is there Halloween Happenings Month. Essex Street was turned into a street fair where we all bought t-shirts, sweatshirts, and a big furry hat. Did a little shopping in the mall and than head off to the sites
The Witches History Museum was filled with info on the witch trials of 1692. You walked back in time through lifelike displays of that time of terror in Salem. Our second stop was the Witches Cottage where we watched a spooky and scary performance of witches, werewolves, and goblins. Some of the girls chose to sit in the front row and regretted it later.
On Lynde Street was the Witch Dungeon where they re-enacted one of the witch trials and we walked down the stairs deep into the dark and damp dungeon. Where those who could not afford a proper dungeon were put into a standing room only one. Yes, they had to pay for their own imprisonment.
The Corwin House also known as the Witch House. Jonathan Corwin was the judge who presided over the witch trials of 1692. It is the oldest home in Salem.
On our journey we walked through the old cemetery, the Witch Trial Memorial, the House of Seven Gables, and went inside of the Pirate Museum where there are men who really think they are pirates. At night we went back into Salem to the street fair and down along Derby St. It is like the boardwalk without the sand. We went into the Salem Wax Museum.
At night we tent camped at Winter Island State Park where they have a marina, a fort, a lighthouse and raccoons who like to steal bread.
It was a great weekend and a time where some learn you need to dress for the weather.
Yes, another great day in "The City". This time we walked around Greenwich Village to take in the sites. What a difference from Time Square and Rockefeller Center. The Village is like a small town with a large city. There were winding roads and dead ends. We ate lunch at famous John's Pizzeria and stop in a small bakery for homemade cookies.
Yes, another day in NYC!!! Our troop, along with our Council were invited to the national televised CBS Early Morning Show. We met the anchors- Dave Price, Harry Smith, and Maggie Rodriquez. Girl Scout cookies was the highlight.
After the Show we went to the little coffee on 58th Street and did a some shopping at H&M. I think this is our favorite stop in "The City".
Can't wait until our next trip to NYC.
Thanks to everyone who came out and help with the Food Pantry at the Christian Community Church on Washington Street in Toms River.
Everyone did a great job and they asked for our help next month.
If anyone has winter clothes, coats, shoes, boots, blankets, etc that they can donate please let us know.
The girls were also interested in helping them when they go to West Virginia. The Appalachian People are about the poorest in OUR country and do need our help. If you are interested in going on this trip Please let us know.
Its easy to collect these items by calling or e-mailing friends, family, neighbors and parent's co-workers. Bring these items to meetings as you get them. Lets all work together to help protect our environment. And as a bonus, a donation will be made to the troop for our efforts.
