...and forest paths this morning! A few weeks ago I felt I just might obliterate under the pressure. You can relate?? And just in the nick of time my knight-in-shining armor rescued me. He had invited me to join him for a trip he needed to take for an educational conference. It just happened to land around our anniversary so he felt we should go early, celebrate our anni, visit some Continue Reading
Traveling with a Family!
WOW! There really isn't a way to cram into this one post all we've done in the past 4 weeks but I will try to catch the highlights and share them with you in hopes they will 'light' up ideas for your family and crew!

(I am sure she meant she didn't care enough about Continue Reading
