I can remember reading the ‘Little House’ books by Laura Ingalls Wilder over and over again as a child growing up in southwest Iowa. I never tired of Laura’s stories of life on the western frontier. And though I knew Laura’s story was (mostly) true it never occurred to me that I could visit the places […]
Out From Killarney
Since I had been to Killarney and County Kerry previously I had things in mind that I wanted to share with my family. And, of course, there were many things we didn’t do. These are just a few other activities close to Killarney. Ring of Kerry The Iveraugh peninsula is probably the most traveled area […]
Otherworldly: Badlands National Park in South Dakota
As I tried to imagine westward settlers viewing this area for the first time, all I could think was that to many it would seem that the flat, grassy prairie gave way to an otherworldly landscape of buttes and bluffs filled with animals they had never seen before.

Glendalough is about two hours south of the Dublin airport. Gleann dá locha literally means the ‘Glen of the two lakes’ as the ancient monastic community lies in a beautiful valley in the middle of the Wicklow Mountains. If you are heading to Glendalough from Dublin I highly recommend researching directions online as we used […]
Backyard Safari Outfitters Gear Makes Your Backyard an Adventure!
A few weeks ago I received a rather large box that weighed surprisingly little. Now, days when we receive packages are kind of like Christmas, so my girls were excited. They were even more excited when the box actually contained something for them. Inside were three items from Backyard Safari Outfitters courtesy of Team Mom. […]
Of Kids and Waterparks

We saw incredible sights… Devils Tower, Little Big Horn, Mount Rushmore, Wall Drug… but his favorite part of the trip? The hotel swimming pools. Really??? Doug and I were astounded and were […]
