Photo Friday: Dragon*Con
Three weeks ago, we didn’t go out of town. But we traveled … to the alternate universe that is Dragon*Con. If you ever find yourself in Atlanta on Labor Day weekend, do not be surprised if you see stormtroopers, wizards and superheroes on the train. We headed downtown for the Saturday morning parade; the streets

Two weeks ago, the girls and I packed up Evie complete with in-van organ, and headed north to Chicago. While the trip was really just a “mission” involving delivering the organ to our friend Ralph (if you are in search of great family music, you should add Ralph’s World to your playlist!) We hadn’t planned
Photo Friday: Great Wolf Lodge
Almost three weeks ago (how time flies!), the girls and I headed of to Great Wolf Lodge in Concord, NC to start off our new year of homeschooling. We had a difficult time deciding where to go, but the in house MagiQuest sold us, and we were not disappointed! This is an entry for Delicious

There is one member of our family who doesn’t like our frequent travels — our kitty, Gazoo. When we got home from our trip to Great Wolf Lodge this week, she wouldn’t let me out of her sight. This is an entry for Delicious Babyโs Photo Friday
Photo Friday: Visiting Friends
While I love to travel to new places to see interesting places and have new experiences, this past week we took a different kind of trip, a trip to visit old friends. No touristy or quirky destination on the schedule. Just time reconnecting with old friends. Of course, while we were there, we came up
Photo Friday: Mermaids at Fernbank
This year, we’ve decided that we will play Hometown Tourists whenever we are actually in town. Though we’ve been to the Fernbank Museum of Natural History a gazillion times, it was this week’s tourist destination. The weather has been so HOT that I wanted to go somewhere indoors and no place that has gardens we

Since we have to stick closer to home this year so that Chloe can attend her “Training Team” gymnastic practices twice a week, I’ve decided that it might be lots of fun to play “Hometown Tourists”. There is a lot to see in Atlanta that we’ve just never made the time to see. This week,
Photo Friday: House in the Woods
This past week, the girls and I made a *very* fast roadtrip up to the DC suburbs; the entire trip was under 60 hours, with at least 25 of those being spent in the car. The motivation? To attend the One Voice Rocks! concert in Gaithersburg. What made the trip even more special was that
Photo Friday : Dusty Roads (Georgetown, TX > Carlsbad, NM)
On Day Four of our “epic trip out west“, we drove 499 miles, but only one of them on interstate highways! Driving the smaller roads from central Texas to southwest New Mexico, we saw dirt. Lots and lots of dirt. Usually the dirt was on the ground, but quite often it would be whipped up
Photo Friday: Roadside America (I-20 ATL > TX)
Just a few days before our “epic trip out west“, I was daydreaming about all the “Great American Sights” we were planning to see – Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Yosemite. But that wasn’t enough. What about the “quirkier side” of this crazy country? A very short search (we were running out of time) later, I settled
Photo Friday: Evie
I can’t believe we did it. We lived in Evie, our PopTop EuroVan, for 38 days. She traveled almost 10,000 miles across 22 states. We traveled and camped almost the entire trip, visiting Yellowstone, Yosemite, the Grand Canyon and a million other great sights. Evie is taking a little break this week, but we are
Photo Friday: Union Square in NYC
Last week while we were in NYC for Kindiefest, we had a late flight out on Monday, so we had a full day to wander around and take in the sights. After our trip to the top of the Empire State Building, I decided to surprise the girls with a trip to Forbidden Planet on
Photo Friday: Hanging out at Sirius/XM in NYC
Last Friday, we were fortunate enough to be invited to attend an amazing concert being broadcast live on the air from the recording studio high above Rockefeller Center. What an honor it was for us to get to hang out with so many of our musician friends, wander in and out of the green room
Photo Friday: RenFest
For a few years now, we have made a tradition of heading just south of Atlanta on a spring weekend to attend the Georgia Renaissance Festival. The girls love just about everything about it. The shows, ranging from acrobatics to jousting to craftspeople showing their crafts, are lots of fun to watch. The people in
Photo Friday: Sheep to Shawl
Last Saturday was a very fibery day for Camille. She spent the morning at a spinning class at STITCHES South and from there, after a pit stop at REI for some supplies for our upcoming epic trip out west, we spent a couple of hours at Sheep to Shawl at the Atlanta History Center. The
Photo Friday: What a Name!
Last weekend, we staye at Indian Springs State Park which is located in the unfortunately named Butts County. Fortunately, it appears that the residents of the county take the name in stride! This is an entry for Delicious Baby’s Photo Friday.

Last Friday, Chloe and I joined Camille on her Latin class’s field trip to the Monsters, Demons, and Winged-Beasts: Composite Creatures in the Ancient World exhibit at the Michael C. Carlos Museum on the Emory University campus. We had issues with parking and ended up having to walk a long distance, uphill, fast. As my
Photo Friday: Austin’s Captiol 10K
Last weekend, Chloe and I flew to Austin to celebrate my mom’s birthday. While there, we visited the J. Lorraine Ghost Town and also went to the Austin American-Statesman Capital 10K. While the rest of the family participated in the race, Chloe and I took our time getting from starting line to finish line and
Photo Friday: Panola Mountain State Park
On Tuesday, we went to Panola Mountain State Park, just east of Atlanta. While we spent most of our time in the area near the nature center, we did take a short drive to the other end of the park where the bike path runs. It is an area we hope to return to once
Photo Friday: Myrtle Beach
A few weeks ago we headed out to North Carolina to pick up my mid-life crisis vehicle that we had won in an eBay auction. Since we were already at the coast, we decided to give her a camping test run at Myrtle Beach State Park. Oh, how I love to be at the beach!!
