 Half of the country is traveling today, the rest will travel tomorrow, and a travel log is essential to capture our trips.

Melony Boseley - Thanksgiving is all about family and the journey we take every year to get to that moment where you consider what you have and give so much thanks for still being here. Your mom would have been son happy to see you all still honoring that family tradition in whatever way you can. I miss Thanksgiving so much. Always been my favorite holiday, so I hope you have a fantastic day! Xoxo
nrlowell@comcast.net - Melony, Thank you, I think you’re right. She would be.
Danielle - Nancy, there is so much about this that I love. The description of your childhood Thanksgivings, the way you felt when your mom passed, and that your cat’s name is James Bond!

Nina - This was my favorite part,”I felt the universe exhale with me; I hadn’t realized I’d been holding my breath.” What a perfect description of the way it feels to lose someone who is such an important part of your life!
