It’s the final baby countdown — and the twins will be here before we know it. Before Kevin and I begin our new adventures as dads, I figured we could use a little Zen. And is there anywhere else on Earth as Zen as Sedona? That’s when I began researching…
This latest adventure was inspired from nearly a year ago. While I was traveling through Alaska for work, Kevin was invited by our friend Kim to do a road trip adventure from LA to Lake Arrowhead. Located high in the mountains of the San Bernardino National Forest, Lake Arrowhead is…
Kevin and I think we speak for just about everyone when we say, “We could use a vacation right now!” Our week days seem to blend into one long day. And truth be told, this past week, I hardly left the apartment. Okay…I barely left the couch! Needless to say,…
