It was a few years ago that we stumbled upon a sculpture garden. The day was getting late at the time, and we were exhausted from a full day of travelling and exploring. We both agreed that we would save this destination for another trip.…
The best thing about Christmas is that others love this season as much as we do. One of our favourite December trips is driving around communities and seeing the lights and displays others have put together. It is even better when someone has gone out…
