“Almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

Everyone remembers their first time...
You know that feeling of being someplace new for the first time? Guess that’s why we travel so much…we’re always chasing that same first time high. Here’s hoping Atticus gets turned on by that same feeling.
“The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.”

“
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Here’s to new adventures in 2012. Happy new year!

Conversation with Grandpa Jim
- Grandpa Jim: "I hate the pictures on your blog"
- Mommy (Mandy): "What.., why?"
- Grandpa Jim: "I already lived through the 60's and 70's when this look was the best you could hope for. The last thing I want to do is stare at an instamatic version of my grandson given the technological advances in photography today"
