Welcome to the web site for Ray and Jeanne Burnham.
Part of the new wave of active retirees; that is us!
We have been to Nepal several times to trek and the past seven winters have found us backpacking in South-East Asia, India, New Zealand, Australia, South America, Spain, Central America, the Greek Islands with our Burnham brother- and sister-in-laws. In the winter of 2005-6 we explored Mexico, then we came home just long enough to prepare for a hike all 190 miles on the famous Wainwright Coast to Coast Trail in England. Autumn 2006 took us to Southern Africa for nine weeks of touring South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. We headed to the Yucatan and Belize for more sun in February 2007 then journeyed to Ireland to tour and meet friends in April-May 2007. The winter of 2007-8 brought new adventures. We travelled to the Philippines where we volunteered at a project through Global Volunteer Network for the month of December, following which we explored more of the Philippine islands for the next two months.
When we are home we are hiking in the Adirondacks, the White Mountains of New Hampshire and the Gatineaus. We bicycle tour in North America and Europe and explore the Ottawa area with friends and the Ottawa Bicycle Club. Winters in Canada find us downhill and cross country skiing.
