When Pie and I lived in New Mexico, the one fall activity we looked forward to the most was the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. I would get childlike excitement hearing the hot air balloons puffing and drifting overhead all across the … Continue reading
The eleventh day of our Ring Road trip in Iceland was our last full day for activities. Technically, we had already completed the Ring Road early on Day 9 because we wanted to circle back around to the active volcano … Continue reading
