Just an old fashioned Saab story
Our magic carpet for our road trips is a 2006 Saab 9-3 convertible with 120k miles on it. It is a joy to drive, especially in the wide open spaces with the top and windows rolled down. It is fast, hugs the road and accelerates like a dream. We love driving it. I am always …
Day trip
My plan was to write this post this afternoon, but we got distracted by a last-minute day trip to Milwaukee with my brother and his family. The Mets were in town and we figured, Why not? The weather was beautiful. Can't go wrong with 80ish degrees and sun especially when it's been 50 up to …

We’ll Take It Easy On Travel Day
Tuesday was saying goodbye to Maui and aloha to Honolulu day. We had an exhausting 25-minute flight (We arrive an hour and 30 minutes before the flight to drop off the car and check the bags...so all in the wait at the airport was 3 x the flight time) after deciding we liked Colleen's so much …
