We spent all of Sunday at Canobie Lake Park in NH and had a wonderful time. This was our first visit there since A has not really been into the rides or anything. For the last 2 yrs we have taken him several times to Story Land where the rides are milder/gentler and coaxed him a lot to [...]

The age old cliche – Time flies

I feel so old. That was a bad start because I don’t want to make this about me. This was a big week for A. He turned 6. It has gone by so quickly, it is almost scary. I remember 6.5 yrs ago, when we were expecting and bought our current house, everyone was asking [...]

The Canadian Rockies were every bit as beautiful as I had imagined. The trip didn’t start out so good. We had a 4.5 hrs long layover in Chicago. After we boarded the flight there, we were sitting on the runway for over an hour with mechanical problems. It was hot and they grumbled to serve [...]
