Road Trip: Day One

Red loves to drive. The longer the distance, the better. TO luckily has his spring break starting today...and yes while it *is* a funny concept in Hyderabad where we have Hot, Wet and Cold as the primary seasons; it's a good opportunity for us to plan getaways. TO diving into the bag of snacks within... Continue Reading →

This morning's conversation with TO brought to light... Continue Reading →
