Norway – as authentic as it gets

by Pam Sievers 26 Comments

I must have missed the fine print on the travel web site. “You will be offered fish, three meals a day, for twelve consecutive days. But don’t worry, the scenery will be worth it.” You know what? They were right, on both. Kathy and I have just returned from a twelve-day trip, aboard the MS Richard With, that sails the coast of Norway. This Coastal Express Cruise (https://www.hurtigruten.com/en-us/voyages/coastal-express-roundtrip) is part ferry, part cargo ship, part no-frills cruise, Continue Reading

A trip, in three acts

by Pam Sievers 18 Comments

My recent Road Scholar trip was absolutely amazing. In my mind, Iconic National Parks from the Grand Tetons to Banff played out in three acts. Act One - The parks. Mountains, lakes, rivers, streams, hot springs, geysers, mudpots, fumaroles, canyons, waterfalls, rocks being formed, gorges, prairies and plains, icefields and glaciers. We saw (and learned about) it all. Yellowstone takes the cake in having the most varied topography. I'd never been there so everytime I saw some earth bubbling Continue Reading

Aging is a humbling experience

by Pam Sievers 26 Comments

I'm headed to my first Road Scholar experience next week, and I couldn't be more excited. Are you familiar with the program? Their mission is to inspire adults to learn, discover and travel. It used to be called Elderhostel and I first became aware of the program 35 years ago when my aunt went on a couple of trips. They were of course, for old people. https://www.roadscholar.org/ Aging is a humbling experience, isn't it? And now I'm going on a trip for old people. You get the Continue Reading

My Night with the Psychic

A week ago, I was part of a large audience (200-300 people) who had each plunked down some cash to hear Mollie Morning Star. Yes, that’s her real name. And I’m not sure if hear is the correct word. Maybe see, definitely experience. It was part of the book festival I was attending in my small Wisconsin hometown. When my sister asked me if I wanted to go, I didn't hesitate. This would be great writing material. Plus we were both interested in seeing the lovingly restored Temple Theater where I Continue Reading

Welcome to my website!


Welcome to my website where my goal was to fill the pages with writing that induces gut wrenching laughs. Since I have no spouse, in-laws, children, grandchildren or pets, I have to work a whole lot harder than most humor writers. Hence, instead you’ll find a blog that features travel, contemplative reflections, and of course some humor – you can’t embrace middle age without it. When not writing, I enjoy quilting, learning about other cultures, and living in the Arizona desert.
