Where In the World Are Zeke and Terri?
Zeke and Terri in 2026
Terri continues to recover from her partial knee replacement in December which was not fun but we are both glad the surgery and initial recovery are behind her. Now it’s time to focus on preparing for our 2026 adventures and we are definitely stepping outside our comfort zones this year.
Our spring trip will terminate in Montreal so we can attend our youngest’s college graduation in Burlington, Vermont. We are still planning on Scandinavia in the fall.
Have ideas for us? Send us an email at zekeandterri@gmail.com and we will add them to our wish list.
Don’t forget to check out our videos on our YouTube channel as we share our travel adventures and misadventures.
