Second Time’s a Charm
LUCY JERUE
PHOENIX AREA, ARIZONA
Rather than take their typical winter trip to Florida, New Jerseyans Bob and
Lucy Jerue exchanged for a week in Arizona’s Phoenix area. Having been once
before, the pair was able to spend two full days “just enjoying the beautiful
pool at our timeshare resort” and taking in attractions they’d missed during
their previous visit. Together, the Jerues relished gorgeous scenery during a
narrated ride on the Verde Canyon Railroad, toured a Frank Lloyd Wright–
designed home, and ate lunch in Apache Junction. The icing on the cake:
When their week was almost over, Lucy posted a picture on Facebook of her
and her husband enjoying their trip, and quickly received a message from a
friend who happened to be in the area. “The next night, we enjoyed dinner
in downtown Phoenix with my friend Margie and her husband, Rick,” Lucy
says. “It was the perfect way to cap off the perfect week.”

One With Nature
JANIS HALL
BANFF, ALBERTA
Looking to escape the Texas heat, Janis Hall, her husband, and her son
relished the experience of an exchange to the cooler temperatures and
incredible nature of Banff, Alberta. “The natural beauty around Banff is
truly amazing,” Janis says. “We saw brown bears, hoodoos, mountain
goats, waterfalls, steaming springs, glaciers, views from the top, hiked
around Moraine Lake and Lake Louise, and took hundreds of nature-
inspired photos.” And they didn’t go hungry, either, whether cooking in
their unit or enjoying dinner at a Greek restaurant, savoring high tea, or
sampling craft beers and fondue. The Halls were also able to spend quality
time with their son, who was on break between semesters of law school,
and to get together with a Canadian friend they hadn’t seen in years. “Our
cozy condo made it easy to have the time of our lives traveling a unique
part of the world,” Janis says.
