Welcome to our Blog!
We’re so glad you found us!
I started our blog to showcase great travel destinations and to inspire others to travel at any age. It doesn’t matter if it’s just a few miles down the road or across the country, you can have a wonderful adventure!
The 50 in our name comes from our goal to travel to all 50 states and the 55 tells you we are still going strong over the age of 55!
We will also share our “over 55” lifestyle with you.
I write about small towns and out-of-the-way places. Under the Travel category, we share these places with you! We’ve also added a Camping category for those of you who love to Camp! You will find campground reviews so you can check them out before you book your campsite. We want to provide you with enough information so you can plan an amazing getaway! The Lifestyle category will give you tips on living your best life over the age of 55.
I was born and raised in Wisconsin where I enjoyed camping, hiking, fishing, swimming, and of course, lots of good cheese! I am a die-hard Green Bay Packer fan, win or lose! Wisconsin is a great place to live, and it was a great place to raise my two sons. We moved to North Carolina when I was about 40. It was quite different from Wisconsin, but a beautiful state to live in! I had never been to the mountains or the ocean before! My sons are now grown and living in other states. I am “retired” from the Insurance Industry and now I work from home.
I am glad we moved to North Carolina because that’s where I met my husband, Terry, who was born and raised here. We feel like it was meant to be and I consider him a gift from God. He is my traveling partner and my best friend! We have a great time together making the most out of each day!
Thanks for stopping by, please come back often!
