We are dedicating the next four months to this incredible trip:  The drive up, our time exploring Alaska, and the road back home.  This blog is our way of keeping in touch with all of you - our family and friends - as we travel.  we will be sharing updates, stories, photos, and all the little moments in-between. While we feel truly blessed to have this opportunity, one of the hardest parts of a trip like this is being away from family.  So think of this space as our virtual campfire - we hope you will check in often, leave us a note, and stay connected as we head north. Here's to the road ahead!
