Day Trip to Eneko Island, Majuro Atoll

May 1, 2025 by Dave5 Comments

The Marshall Islands are one of the planet's most remote island countries, but even within 'remote' one can find places even further removed from people. And Eneko Island is the perfect example. For reference the Marshall Islands are closer to Papua New Guinea than Hawaii, are slightly north of the equator and are located west of the international date line.

Coffeyville, Kansas – May 2025

May 1, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

Located in the far south east corner of Kansas (just across the Oklahoma state line), this tiny community of 10,000 is not on the itinerary of most travelers - in other words, visitors generally do not randomly pass through its city limits. Perhaps known as the site of the last two bank robberies attempted by the Dalton Gang (Coffeyville was their hometown). Visitors will want to stop in the quaint old historic part of town - (almost feels like … [Read more...]
