There are tons of bikes in Amsterdam. . . it’s difficult to see, but this canal is completely lined with them. We then braved the wind again and went to the Van Gogh Museum. Here’s the skinny on that:. You are commen...

Illini girl’s adventures. I specialize in awkward. Who is this girl? May 9, 2012. So time to blog about my trip (finally!

There are so many places I want to go and so many places I would want to revisit before going there again. The cities were very clean. It was warmer in Spain than Amsterdam. Our first experie...

I scanned in over 100 pictures of him, and I didn’t find too many where he wasn’t laughing or didn’t have his mouth open. He loved to talk, loved to laugh, was loud, and was FUN! What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico. D-runk. Here are the things I will remember and most appreciate about Grandpa W. . . Birthday time in my grandparents kitchen! I am SO MAD that we dont hav...
