Saturday was a day of traveling for Cindy, her mom, her niece, and yours truly. Vegas may be a great place, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes you just want to get away. We loaded up into the HHR for a trip up north in search of fun and all and we surely [...]

I’ve been planning on going down to visit family in northern Arizona for quite a while now, but I’m starting to think I might need to go on down to SoCal, San Diego specifically. There’s been quite a few times lately when I’ve started to feel homesick for the salt air of the sea [...]
