Hey y'all! Before you ask, no I am not sick of that greeting yet. In fact it has really grown on me on this trip, kind of like the urge not to supersize anything over here. So we made our way to Flagstaff, Arizona, and apparently the snow had taken ... Read more >

Hey y'all! First up, I hope you enjoyed the best American greeting I could muster, and second up I hope you enjoyed even more the "Karate Kid" reference in the title! So the time in New York came to an end, and as I breathed in that last ... Read more >
