Last night, after the funeral had passed and knowing that the next day held a wedding in store for the family, I met several of Jaclyn's family members over at their hotel for a drink at the bar. We hung out for a while but, as the crowd started to dissipate, I decided to make … Continue reading Day 279: Baby’s First Grand Theft Auto!

Day 275
Miles is a good enough traveler; he just gets a little testy after being in the car for a couple hours (but then, find someone who doesn't).

The most consistent of these thus far has proven to … Continue reading Day 62
