I picked Shannon up from the Nashville airport last Wednesday night. We had both missed dinner so we decided to stop for a late meal at Cracker Barrel, just north of Nashville. She began to entertain me with stories of how on the plane she’d sat near the potty – and there were unpleasant *smells* [...]

Blogging has brought many MANY blessings into my life. Not only does it allow me an outlet of expression for all the random clutter that runs around in my little head, but it also has allowed me the opportunity to make friends. I never dreamed 3 years ago when I began blogging that it would [...]

My motto: Shannon and I were looking around at this cute little store in my town the other day and found this sign. It’s one of my favorite sayings! We have truly enjoyed our time together. We’ll be sharing some great stories of our adventure once we’re back to our homes.

Regardless of where you stand…. Please get out there and VOTE today. It is your RIGHT and PRIVILEGE to take part in today’s election…. so GO do it!

I mentioned the other day that I joined a book club with Becca. I’ve been very warmly received and enjoyed my first book very much. I was a little concerned about posting my thoughts on the book, because I was afraid I’d sound like a tee-total DORK. But, the host asked some fabulous and thought-provoking [...]
