This Texas Life 3

Eight years ago we started our blog "Family Adventures" to share our travel plans and experiences with friends and families. Now the topics covered expand well beyond travel - we wrote about love and relationship, sentiments and pondering, routines that are part of our family traditions (see This Texas Life 2).....and further extended to food, fitness, leisure, the following is a collection of our posts on those subjects.

Custom Calendar for 2018 - Nature

Our tradition of making custom calendars continues.

The photos from our July trip to Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada dominated the 2018 calendar - they occupied pages of 7 months of the year. Our camping trip to Colorado Bend, my trip to Mt Whitney and Mammoth Lakes, my business trip to Chicago, and the late autumn of North Texas rounded up the rest of months.

Some trips were not represented in this calendar such as our family trip to McKinney Falls, Austin, TX and my day hike on Cross Timber Hiking trail.
