We are on a cross country road trip from South Carolina to California…coast to coast. Miles and miles of corn stand tall, together, waving in the wind. Trees line rivers one after another.

A long boarding accident. Stitches. Lost college scholarship essay to the interwebs never to be seen again. No one signing up for our Hogwarts Camp the day registration opened.
