We drove out to the tree farm with Isis on Saturday, parked and got her all harnessed up before we saw the “No dogs please” sign. So we got back in the car, drove and drove and drove, passed a little farm with cookie-cutter perfect trees, but kept going until we got to a placeContinue reading “Treedition”

Giving the experience
I like the idea of giving gift cards, except for two things. One, the recipient knows how much you spent. Two, you can buy the things at the grocery store.
