    Gary Zamchick, a high school buddy, said that the trip is perfect for “what now’ers.” I never head of that term until now – I don’t know if he coined it or not.But I think that is true that the time that one begins an empty nest is a what now time.  Read more >

    I am getting ready for my huge motorcycle trip to Alaska. I told Denise at blogher that I was doing this trip she said, “Oh, a quest!” I had never thought of this empty-nest inspired trip as a quest but she is right. This is a quest for me, a quest for me to find answers to my questions about what I want to do with the rest of my life. Both words – quest and question – come from the Latin word quaerere, which means to seek. (Thanks, Mom and Dad, for paying for four years at Cornell so that I can write that!) So, yes, this is a quest for me and I’m seeking my self.  Read more >

    Hi everyone, I just finished the most important task of my life -- raising my four kids and two step kids and now I'm facing an empty nest. I'm staring into my future and it seems so strange. I decided I needed what Denise calls "a quest" so I'm taking off on my motorcycle with my husband on his motorcycle for ...Alaska! We're starting on the tip of Long Island and travelling across Canada and then up the Alaska Highway to Alaska.  Read more >
