We love to travel! With all those posts I’ve been doing since our visit to Rochester, I thought that it might be a good idea to gather the different travel reviews I’ve done somewhere convenient. So I’ve created a new page, Beyond the Capital District: A Round-up of Reviews of Family Destinations. The link’s … [Read more…]
We decided that we just weren’t busy enough this summer, so we took a little road trip to Rochester. Actually, I caught a ride with Adrienne from Albany Kid on for a meeting on Wednesday (remember my car trouble/luck?), and then Cute W and the girls joined me on Friday. We went hither, thither, and … [Read more…]

We’re gonna go see Brave today!’ They’d seen it while visiting their grandparents, but I still wanted to go, and I’d told them we … [Read more…]

Here’s a link from Free Range Kids about how moms created their own neighborhood camp. Sounds super-awesome, but I’m hoping that someone else in my neighborhood will do this and I can just cheer them on and boast to all of you about my glorious neighborhood (again).

On Saturday we attended a party/campout, an annual event. It was excellent, as always. A main attraction was the collection of home brews. The hard cider was my favorite. There’s always a ton of music. All kinds. Our friends had a groovy new s’more maker. You can find a s’more maker like it online. Both … [Read more…]
