It was three year ago today that I had my most terrifying life experience. The day started out like any other day. I woke up, educated the youth of America, and scurried home quickly to beat the weekend traffic to head up north. We had a seasonal trailer in Sturgeon Bay, which we had not been up there since last October. My wife (Sarah) and I were excited to take our son (Carter) camping for the first time that year. He was only 10 months old. After making the exciting three-hour drive up north, with a 10 month old, we needed to get all of our stuff unpacked and organized. I figured we had all weekend to work on things around the trailer, so I wasn’t going to go to crazy that first night. I turned on the water, water heater, electricity, carried the dogs cage in and of course made sure the T.V. worked. My parents and brother had campers right next to ours.

My parents are retired and spend most of the winter in Daytona Beach and my wife's brother lives in Miami. Hopefully you don't think I'm that crazy anymore. We are taking a family vacation to visit family. We decided to drive because Mara turns 2 the night we are leaving, so we would have to pay for 4 tickets. With it being Spring Break tickets are not cheap and we figured why pay for the ticket when she would probably spend most of the time on moms lap anyways. Right now we are in the process of trying to get things organized and planned out for the kids. We have been doing research about things to occupy kids on long car rides.
