She traveled throughout her life both here in the United States and abroad. She drove many times from California to Colorado, Wyoming or Montana​, often alone​.

She lived in Tarapoto, Peru where her husband worked for Morrison-Knudsen building bridges and roads to join the interior of Peru with the PanAmerican highway. She left Peru in 1968 when the government experienced a coup and nationalized all the businesses and companies there.
