Happy New Year!

We've been neglectful for several months. Sometimes life just throws more at us than we can handle. Two surgeries, ailing parents, two family deaths, crises at our 'regular' jobs … last year was a roller coaster, and we're glad to see it go. We have great hope that 2009 will be easier, happier, more peaceful. We also have more travel plans for the coming months and are looking forward to sharing our explorations with you, our dear reader and friend. In the meantime, start this new year with anticipation. Meditate on the good things that you want to draw into your life. Stay focused on the goodness around and always be thankful! May this year be your best ever …
