Holy cow! Time flies when you’re having fun! We fully intended on blogging along the way, but we’ve been trucking along at maximum speed ever since the start of our travels almost four (!) weeks ago.

There’s one word that comes to mind when describing the current state of casa de Gus…CHAOS! It’s moving time! The semi trailer arrived yesterday evening and we will spend the next four days filling it up with all of our stuff. We’re more than ready to finally load all of the boxes we’ve packed. This time around, we’re using ABF to […]

Happy Saturday! Last week we took you on our walking tour of downtown Lawrence, Kansas and this week we’re highlighting Iowa City, Iowa.

Happy Wednesday, friends! Words cannot properly describe our excitement about today’s post. In fact, we’ve been giddy with perma-smiles plastered on our faces for the past week. We recently received an email from Carol Bryant, the brilliant mastermind behind the FIDO Friendly Blog, Facebook page and Twitter account. She’s amazing and we often question if she […]
