Big family camping trip planned for July... there will be about 30 of us. After all the kids get back in school we are either going to make another trip to Yellowstone or head north to Yosemite. I hope they don't close the National Parks... would be such a shame since camping is more affordable for families and seniors in these hard economic times.
Exercise 1st... Spark 2nd. Works for me!

Whats getting away? The furthest I might possibly go is about a 2 hour drive within the state I live to a family get together. Would not even do that if we did not have to show of the boys. Other than that can't afford to. Hoping to get away in 3 yrs to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.
