My Vicarious Trip to Ecuador
Chris and I are very different. We often marvel at how our marriage works when we are so completely opposite. There is one big thing we have in common, though. We both love to travel.

(Disclaimer: I'm still trying to sort this all out in my mind so I'm not sure this post is going to make a whole lot of sense, but I want to share it anyway.) So here is my earth-shattering epiphany ... are you ready... Continue Reading →

This is brilliant.
