Sleeping in the car

Have Kids, Will Travel

We love to pack up the car and head out for the day or weekend. Laura and I have done it since we’ve known each other and we have continued it with our children. Almost since Ethan and Autumn’s first month of life, we were driving 2 to 4 hours to visit family. Our travels include visiting Oregon every other month (4 hour drive), driving to California from Portland, camping in eastern Oregon, and many many day trips in whatever area we live. In addition to car trips, Ethan has been on four (to and from California) and Autumn on two (to and from Chicago) airplane trips. Through it all our children have done extremely well. We thought we’d share what we learned from our experience to make your journey with your children more enjoyable.

Aerial Views of the Great State of Washington (Video)

As Laura and I prepare to fly to Chicago this week, I’d like to share a video I made from my flight a week ago to Seattle from Maryland. This is a short video showing some of the views of Washington State as we fly east to west and land at Seattle-Tacoma airport. There are some great views of Mount Rainier and surrounding area. This was filmed on a BlackBerry so don’t expect much from it.
