Most people will probably say the major historical events they remember are September 11, 2001, and the Covid pandemic. While those are definitely major events with great impact on our society, I am going to bring you a little further back in time to March of 1991. I was all of 12 years old and…

The biggest risk I would love to take would be to sell most of my belongings and hit the road full time. I want to see the beautiful country we live in and take my time doing so. I want to visit all of the national parks. I want to be free. We watch a…

I could definitely try riding a motorcycle for the first time! We own a camper in Laconia, home of the World’s Oldest Motorcycle Rally. Neither of us know how to ride, but our friends to and we just love the people and the atmosphere at Bike Week. We go every year. Now that we are…

My main defining principle is just don’t be an a$$hole. I try to always be kind, and remember that none of us can know what is going on in someone else’s world. Small acts of kindness can change someone else’s entire day. You never know. The world today is filled with so much hate and…

Two years ago, we packed our whole lives up and moved from Massachusetts to North Carolina. We were scared and nervous to move to such a different place. It was great to be near my dad and my sister (and I will miss my sister terribly – this is the only big downfall to going…
