One of my favorite summer activities is spending a day at Water Country USA in Williamsburg, VA, although it seems harder and harder to coordinate into my schedule every summer.

Hello my friends! I just wanted to write a quick update to let you know that you might be seeing a little less of me on the blog in December.
