Today was our penultimate day of our trip. We leave early tomorrow morning. We left Sault Ste Marie today morning and the funny part was my special boy was happy to leave 😊 (maybe camping doesn’t suit his needs). Usually he hesitates when we vacate a hotel room but today he was the first one…

What’s the one luxury you can’t live without? Growing up in India, we had household help. Not a stay in maid service. But a mother and daughter duo who would come help clean vessels, wash our clothes, mop and dry our living quarters every day. Some times the sister or her kids would drop by…

Yesterday while walking on the Panhandle Trail, a sweet smell pulled our family towards a bush. My app told me this was Japanese Honey Suckle. We have a Amur Honey suckle in our house but that did not blossom at all. These ones in the wild did a much better job than the one maintained…
