Arguing on the Road -- Yes, It Happens!

Read MoreYep, you heard it right: we’ve got two weeks left on our yearlong journey.
Read MoreJune was a busy, busy month. As we rang in July 1 yesterday with a drop-dead gorgeous hike in Acadia National Park, it occurred to me that we skipped over a pretty huge milestone: we're halfway done!
Read MoreAfter hitting our halfway point, we've realized there are a few things we've really come to rely on while traveling across the country. So we thought we'd compile a list of a few of those must-haves we just can't live without.

And it's hard. And when you're tested and tested and tested, you eventually just become more grateful and appreciative. Isn't that what we're suppose to do anyway?

Every day you feel guilty about either working too much or too little, and I think people would be surprised by just how often we are holed up in a coffee shop or next to our hot spot rather than out exploring.
