En Route to Warmer Climes
After we left Traverse City, Michigan en route to warmer climes, we visited with my youngest daughter and her sweet little family. I had a lot pent up energy, so I cleaned and organized the barn, then taught Liam how to “zen out” by raking. The fire pit never looked so good. There is always …

Dropping south from the Michigan rainy cold, we were looking forward to a delightful warmer stay in Nashville Tennessee.

Ninety One Days in Europe Come to an End
I wanted the title to read ‘When is the Madness Going to End?‘, but decided that a reference to 91 days of travel in Europe would make more sense in the bigger picture. The 5:00am wake up call was not welcome, since we have had very little sleep the past few days, but it was …
