Pam’s Traveling Coat Collection – Book II

I’ve been loaded into suitcases and backpacks and tossed into airplane cargo holds for long rides around the world. I’ve survived windstorms and snowstorms, sandstorms and ocean waves. I know about subways and railways and all ways of travel from place to place. I have seen things from rickshaws, riverboats, canal boats, the back of a donkey and a camel. I’ve petted an elephant and a cheetah and lived to tell the tale.

Stairways into what seemed like the very clouds have been part of almost every adventure!

There are so many places to go. So many places to see. I encourage you to go explore. It’s a big, big world and it’s waiting for you.

Ann Blakely

Ann has been a traveler for many years. Since her first excursions to the National Parks of the U.S. with her family to places of interest around the world, she has always enjoyed seeing something new and exciting.


She lives in Texas with her husband and enjoys volunteer work and taking care of her flower and vegetable gardens.


When not traveling, Ann spends time studying, mentoring, helping tend to therapy horses and working in classes at an equestrian center for special needs riders. Her joy is to encourage everyone to open their eyes and hearts to the adventure of travel.
