This afternoon, together with a bunch of friends and family, we headed to the shore. The beach is a all rocks and is at Scot’s Bay on the Bay of Fundy. The tides are huge and as we were getting there it was on it’s way out. It doesn’t take long before there is aContinue reading “Afternoon at the Shore”

Library Summer Reading Club
Each year the Valley library system here puts on a summer reading club. It is an awesome idea to keep kids reading and gives them some great incentive to do it as well. You sign up for the program and you are given a sheet with different tasks to complete over the summer. As youContinue reading “Library Summer Reading Club”
Fitbit vs Pebble
For quite a while now I’ve really enjoyed my first generation Pebble watch. Right before we went on vacation the strap broke on it. I picked up a new strap but I couldn’t find one the right size so I choose the closest I could find. It was 20mm when it really should be 22mm.Continue reading “Fitbit vs Pebble”

Reflecting on Vacation
While on vacation for the most part we kept really busy. Even when we had down time when driving a lot of it was either driving or navigating. There was also a lot of talking and planning that took place on the drives. For me I got up early before everyone else, grabbed some coffee,Continue reading “Reflecting on Vacation”

Day Nine – Starting Home
Vacation is starting to wrap up. We left the awesome B&B and started the drive back home. On the drive we changed up plans. We were going to drive around NYC but changed it up so we went straight through instead. There was certainly a lot more traffic than we were used to but JenContinue reading “Day Nine – Starting Home”
Day Eight – Chesapeake Beach and Fireworks
Yesterday was Independence Day. What an opportunity being right next to the Nations Capital. Someday I might look back and regret our decision to stay out of downtown Washington DC for the day, but we had a great day anyway. The weather was off and on raining all day. At some points it came downContinue reading “Day Eight – Chesapeake Beach and Fireworks”
Day Seven – National Zoo
Our smart phones are our lifeline when on vacation. We use them to most of research when we are out, stay in communication with home, each other, and with our friends traveling with us. Most importantly they are our navigation systems. Jen is partial to Apple Maps, but I prefer Google Maps, either way theyContinue reading “Day Seven – National Zoo”
