In July and August, I spent some time with my family in Oklahoma. While I was there, I went on some daytrips with my brother to explore parts of the state I haven’t spent much time in. One of the days we went down to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge to explore and hopefully capture … Read more
At the end of July/beginning of August, I headed to St. Louis to hang out with my sister for a long-needed four day weekend. She’s been in St. Louis for 6+ years, and I hadn’t made the trek out there (bad Steph!) except for a lunch last summer when I was driving a car from … Read more
