It looks as though I will get to show off my adaptability chops once I head west next on my journey to the Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n

I had planned to head north from the Grand Canyon, into Utah, and then across Nevada along what they call the “Loneliest Highway in America,” U.S. 50.<\/p>\n

Plans change, you know?<\/p>\n

Immense snowfall has closed many highways near Lake Tahoe and through the Sierra Nevada Range.\u00a0 So …<\/p>\n

I’m going to take a more southerly route on my way to the ocean.<\/p>\n

This I can do.<\/p>\n

Toby the Puppy and I are planning our trip to clear our heads and our hearts after the passing my beloved bride, Kathy Anne. It’s something I must do and Toby is all in. At least he’s indicated as much.<\/p>\n

I’ll get to see plenty of family members and friends along my journey. My sisters and their husbands await, along with nieces, cousins and their spouses, and many of the friends I have made over the years. I might even reunite with some of my high school classmates.<\/p>\n

Just so you know, my plans only extend as far as the trip in a westerly and northerly direction. I haven’t even thought about the return trip.<\/p>\n

I am going to stay — shall I say it — adaptable.<\/p>\n
