I just bought my self a ticket to see the Yankees play the Red Sox on April 16th in Yankee Stadium! I feel like a 10 year old kid with a crush on baseball.
After this I will have been to see games (outside of Seattle that is) at Wrigley Field and Yankee Stadium. Fenway is […]

In the coming days I will be making individual posts creating an ‘ex post facto’ […]

After one week of successfully ignoring the internet, we’re making contact from the east coast of the Isle of Skye, Scotland.
It’s been beautiful here, when the weather has permited. Even when it hasn’t the snow and rain haven’t been too much trouble. We’re off to Loch Ness this afternoon before making our way back south […]

I’ve been having a lot of fun playing around with Google Earth while planning possible options for our upcoming road-trip around Scotland. As I’ve mentioned before, it’s important for me that we leave our options open for spontaneity, but there’s nothing wrong with a basic plan… right?
We’ll have 5 days to cover a lot of […]
