This little college town that borders Lake Champlain is everything one would expect from a New England town ... and more! When my daughter announced she would be attending college there, I was thrilled! Having visited the town a few times to visit a friends daughter, I knew of some of its charms al…

6:20am Sleep is a funny thing when I’m on a trip. I’m super tired at the end of the day, so I fall asleep in a flash, but the circumstances are so unusual and the schedule so unfamiliar, that at 5:45am I was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready to get my day started. I also really enjoy ha…

I went up to Burlington, VT to visit my sister this weekend. When I was heading home  like 5 minutes after I got on the highway I noticed how awesome the mountains looked with the fog over the tops of them. So being really dumb I pulled my car over on 89 , got out and snapped a couple pictures…

Lori and Tori and I were great friends during our freshmen year at Texas A&M University at Galveston.  We ran all around together and got along like peas and carrots.  Lori and Tori lived together in the dorms for a semester, and when Lori left Galveston after our first year, they kep…

Merry Christmas!!  It's been a pretty uneventful day here.  Last night I cooked dinner for the boys and we ate family style in the day room- while listening to rap.... yeahhhh.  It was ok though.  The boys went to bed and I watched Love Actually and IMed everyone at midnight bec…

With graduation aproaching and most of our AP tests done with, we can finally concentrate really on our trip. It is all very exciting and challenging at the same time. we are having the most difficult time with our apartments. yes "apartments" as currently we have two. its all kind of a big mi…

The ride from Forestport to Burlington was beautiful because I decided to take the rustic back roads up and over the Adirondack Mountains. Not much traffic on the twisty winding up and down roads. At Fort Ticonderoga, I took a short ferry ride across the lower end of Lake Champlain into Vermont. Th…
