2024 BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS
How do you describe a week on what felt like another planet? For most of 8 days, we lived on one – a 40 foot catamaran sailing the British Virgin Islands where we spent far more time floating on the ocean than with our feet on dry land.
WYOMING
Well, that escalated quickly! What started as planning for a three day weekend in Michigan moved toward a 5 day vacation in the Colorado Front Range which finally morphed into a full-blown, 10 day road trip to Wyoming. Crosby (4.5 years old) had already proven himself as a road warrior on a three week road […]
MIAMI, FL
Bienvenidos a Miami! Molly and I were beyond excited to visit the Sunshine State not only for an escape from the cold grayness of January in Chicago but also to celebrate the wedding of our friends Ryan and Joanna! After a busy holiday season and some last minute work fire drills, the trip south sort […]

We had attempted this trip a year prior with Crosby, yielding dubious results; but he was […]

However, with their massive lodgepole pines and spotless white snowfields, we quickly remembered that there are many other beautiful places in our world other than the ocean. The higher we got, the more […]
EPIC ROAD TRIP – WEEK 2
Continued from WEEK 1… Saying good-byes Monday morning was tough as always with our friends, but we were excited to see the place that we had been hearing amazing things about for so long, Big Sur. Due to the recent landslides, only a small portion of the park was accessible and we would need to […]
