From The Open Road
From The Open Road
Our road trip was more than we had hoped it would be. We both thought that it would take much longer to see all that we were able to pack into 91 days of life on the road. We stand amazed at the great memories that we have from such a rewarding time. I had concerns about our sanity after three months...

Familiar Places
We found ourselves at a familiar place at the end of our 12 hour driving day- Greenwood, Indiana, our home for the last three years and the home of nearly my entire family. We have opted to take a short break from life on the road. We will be stationary for approximately one to two months before we embark...

We headed out of Burlington on Sunday afternoon. Brett spent the morning on a bike ride around Burlington with Craig and two of Craig’s friends. After lunch they returned, he showered and we hit the road. It was great weather, we were in great moods and it was an overall great drive. The small...

The day started off so wonderfully. After packing up at the campsite, Brett and I headed to Bass Head Lighthouse. It was a very enjoyable visit to the lighthouse – having been to numerous lighthouses on this trip, I can say that this one was definitely one of the best. We were able to get down...

Brett and I celebrated July 4th with Carey. The three of us had a lazy morning followed by a trip to the beach and authentic Rhode Island food – clam cakes and quahogs with Del’s Lemonade. It was a very lovely day – both because it was not too hot and because it was not raining for...

Friday, July 3rd – Day 80 Brett and I were lucky enough to get to stop by Camp Canonicus while we were in Rhode Island. The camp holds special memories for both of us. Brett grew up as a camper here and then joined staff as soon as he was old enough. He was working the summer of 2002 when I made...
