I am beginning the adventure of a lifetime and many of my family and friends think I have lost my mind. If losing your mind means you are very excited about what each new day brings than I probably have lost my mind! For my Spring Sabbatical from the University of Connecticut I decided to drive across the country to visit universities and see what educational programs are offered for retired people.

The wisdom of our elders is a gift. I am anxious to learn as much as I can.
During my travels I will visit colleagues and friends that are an important part of my personal and professional life. In many cases, I will stay with them as I cross the country. In addition, I purchased a 25 foot motor home so that I have a "home" on the road. The adventure begins......
