Boston. Aged red brick and green copper roofs pierce the sky, asserting their authority. Cobblestone streets provide uneasy yet sturdy footing as you stroll the trail of history. A cool breeze blows through your clothes while the sun warms your skin. I cannot wait to return again.
Earlier this year Peter and I were invited to spend New Years in Savannah, Georgia by our good friend Drew. Since Drew moved from Florida to Pennsylvania in the 6th grade, I’ve been fortunate enough to spend every Thanksgiving with him and his family. However, Peter had not seen Drew for more than 10 years. … More New Years in Savannah
After a 4 year hiatus, I finally returned to North Carolina this Thanksgiving! When I was a kid, my family owned a small cabin in the mountains close to Highlands. Every summer and sometimes in the fall we would drive 12 hours and stay for a couple of weeks. It was a dream come true, … More Thanksgiving Traditions

While most of the women went on the garden tour, I excitedly joined … More Treated like a VIP
Today, Gemma and I hiked the Great Island trail in the Cape Cod National Seashore. We walked through deep sand, saw amazing sights, and stumbled upon many interesting animal remains! Total, we walked about 4 or 5 miles and had a blast, fortunately making it back before the tide came in. Tiring but so much … More Great Island
