People pics are fun, aren’t they? So glad all is well with you two and that you’ve been road trippin’ also (even to purgatory!). We’ll be back in the US for the month of August to see family with a whirlwind itinerary (New Jersey- Washington DC- Spokane, WA- Denver- Corpus Christi) and then out to Ecuador in September (to rest, ha-ha!). What do you think of a visit to Ecuador or Columbia? Otherwise, we’re thinking Asia or Europe after Christmas…
