Can't Go Back Now

We hastily said our goodbyes and vacated the halls of Lethbridge College. Summer has arrived, and with summer comes the inevitable lack of work as students focus on a new set of priorities until September. This year, Stacey is at home with our new son Marek, and now with the prospect of two months to focus on our boys we have decided to pack-up and take to the road to give them a summer filled with new experiences, fresh air, and fun.  We're going camping.

This endeavor began as on of those 'wouldn't it be amazing if we could figure out how to' ideas. With the announcement of a new baby on the way, we quickly realized that we would need to redefine how we would pull-off the annual summer travel plans. With two car seats and a stroller, we are now officially unable to fit even a small suitcase in our car. We had already been piling stuff around us every summer as we traversed the countryside seeing family and friends.

Now eleven months later, we have hit the road for July and August in a newly acquired truck and travel trailer. Both are the result of a year of planning, saving, scheming, and a dream. Both continue to have a learning curve, but now sitting on the precipice of our summer adventure, it all seems worthwhile.
