The Sweet and Sour from Birth to Bliss

We made it!

Two weeks.

Three thousand miles.

Six states.

Five gracious hosts/hostesses.

One hotel room.

Ten hot showers.

Eight cold camping nights.

One remarkable traveling toddler.

Countless peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

One orgasmic coffee.

Unfathomable natural beauty.

And the happiest of endings.

Home!

    Hmmmm….based on this photo, it looks like you might be close to Queen Anne hill. That’s where my stepson (Skip) and step grandson (Lenox) and his mom (Megan) live.

    Lenox just turned 3 last month.

    Let me know if you want their info as potential local contacts/friends/playmates.
