ESCAPING A LATE WINTER

Five months ago snow fell for the first time in the Cleveland area.  The winter's blustery cold never released its hold over the season to follow.  Our latest (one hesitates to say "final") snowfall occurred just last Tuesday on April 15th.



During that entire period, seldom did a day of sunshine and warmth break through, an occasional occurrence we've grown accustomed to around here as an assurance that the weather, indeed, is capable of changing for the better ...

So it is that our upcoming Overseas Adventure Travel tour of Turkey beginning May 3rd comes at an even more appropriate time than originally intended.  We assumed we' be leaving behind a glorious Spring; instead, we will be escaping an extended Winter.  That's all to the good, I guess.

These first few blog postings, as usual, are intended simply to get me used to the routine.  They will also allow me to catch up with the latest technological developments occurring since I last kept a travel blog.  Even now I'm typing on a portable Logitech Bluetooth keyboard connected to an iPad Air rather than on the mini-laptop I have used most recently.  I wonder what other new possibilities will suggest themselves over the days ahead.
