Photos of photos
These photographs of photographs Lee took might not look like much to you but for me they are pretty exciting!

2013 Travel: Let the planning begin
View 2013 Trip Planning in a larger map Lee & I have made it a sort-of annual tradition to sit down on New Year’s Day and outline how we want to spend our vacation days and dollars for the coming year. Sometimes we have a trip already booked but this year it’s a pretty clean slate. Lots of ideas but nothing booked. We always leave room for spur-of-the-moment trips and weekend excursions, but we like to start planning some of the big trips.
