Summer 2019 Travel Schedule
Hello from Colorado! (Yes, I’m posting this a bit late.) Our Summer 2019 road trip is in full swing and this year we’re headed North and West. With a schedule packed full of partying with our clients, workshops, and some good old fashioned exploration, you’ll want to follow us @roadwarriorwp on all the socials so you don’t miss out.

Pittsburgh
in TravelLast month I did something I had never done before – I left Chris and the girls and flew across the country to visit friends for a weekend in Pittsburgh. Every year since I moved away from New York, my friends Laura and Margarete have been coming to visit me – first via car…

Thanksgiving Part 1
Our little family went to Texas! This Thanksgiving, Chris’ family very, very generously offered to buy us plane tickets so that we could visit his hometown for the first time in more than 4 years. After a very short discussion about the harm (or lack there of) of letting Nora miss two days of kindergarten,…

A Ski Trip to the Mountains
Chris’ family goes skiing in Colorado every year during spring break and this year, for the first time, we lived close enough to join in on the fun. So, Friday we loaded kids and bags into the car, dropped Pip off for a little “vacation” of his own, and drove 3 hours west to Steamboat…

Family Fun
Last week, my mom, step-dad, and twin brothers came up to visit. It was the first time they met Zara in person and the first time we had seen them in a year. So we were much overdue for a visit. I mean look at what a big girl Zara is already…she’s practically in kindergarten.…

Impromptu Road Trip
Saturday, we took an impromptu road trip up to a local food expo (more on that tomorrow) in another town over. This was the first time either of us had been west of our town and I was grateful to have the chance to see a little bit more of our new state on top of some much needed…

Moving, Part Whatever
It is now safe to say that we are officially done moving. We made it through 11 states, through sunshine, rain and snow in an SUV packed full clothes, toys, kids and a dog, to new life in a new city far, far away. We have a house that is 99% put together with only…

Photos From the Road
Today was the longest day on the road – just about twelve hours from the minuscule town in Minnesota where we had stopped the night before, exhausted from a late, snow-delayed start. There were a few (not unexpected) moments of complaints from Nora and more than one potty break just 10 or 15 minutes after getting back on the…

Fun Along The Way
If you have to move across country, the only way to do it is with a little fun along the way. We took Saturday off from driving and spent the day playing around Pittsburgh with my friend Laura.I hadn’t been to Pittsburgh during cross-country car trips as a kid with my family, so it was…

Kansas City Part Two
I must still be on central time, or maybe I’m just too excited about sharing photos from the end of our trip, but it’s 1:30 am and I’m not tired at all. It’s funny; I’ve gone through phases when late, late night just worked for me: middle school, when I would stay up for hours…

Kansas City Part One
We are sitting on a plane waiting to fly away from our fabulous week with family in Kansas City. Chris (who flew in on Friday) is sitting across the isle showing Nora how to “sew” on a threading toy, so I thought I might try to get a post out on my cell phone…which is…

Traveling
Yesterday, we traveled. Up early, kissed Chris goodbye , and boarded a propeller plane to soar away from Nantucket. There were some delays which, luckily, didn’t seem to bother my little mama much. We played with toys, walked all through the airport exploring exciting things like moving sidewalks, and finally, nearly 12 hours later, we made…
