Posted on 2022-06-132022-06-13 by Curtis Hertwig

Two years ago I was supposed to go to northern Spain for Easter. This year I finally got to do it. For towns in the Basque region and all over Spain this is like their Spring festivals and they parade and put on reenactments with great fervor. The hoods and robes that they wear when…

All Is Wright In the World

Posted on 2020-08-31 by Curtis Hertwig

Since Macon is a Hot Spot – both for Corona & weather – I went in search of comfort in the form of people who wear masks early & often, & some significant things (Frank Lloyd) Wright in this world. Taliesin was Wright’s home and laboratory, while Fallingwater is perhaps his greatest work. In between,…

Keeping Mackinac Strait

Posted on 2020-08-012020-08-01 by Curtis Hertwig

So, shortly after the 4th of July, I hit the road in search of Frank Lloyd Wright houses & cooler temperatures and succeed on both fronts. Additionally, I discovered that Michigan has a lot of lighthouses. I also spent several lovely days on Mackinac Island, but, sadly, they discourage drones because the horses do all…

Cruisin’ Setouchi

Posted on 2019-04-292019-04-29 by Curtis Hertwig

So, Setouchi is the Japanese word for the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. It is filled with islands and makes for a great place to cruise around on a boat that reeks of Japanese minimalist design. Also some pretty fresh seafood. Along the way, we stopped off at Miyajima on Itsukushima Island off Hiroshima. Up…

Spring is around the corner and that is always a great time in Macon, so I am glad to be home for a bit. This Spring, coinciding with the International Cherry Blossom we (and by “we”, I mean Newtown Macon, Dashboard Coop & Community Foundation of Central Georgia) will be putting on a photography show…

Morocco – Looking Back at Storks & Cats

Posted on 2019-02-14 by Curtis Hertwig

So, I will do a quick overview of Morocco before delving into each city. Last night we all said our good-byes and, today, I started returning to hermit mode. Stayed to myself and flew from Casablanca to Lisbon. Overall, it was a good group with lots of fun people, but, in the end, being around…
